School Entertainment.

The entertainment by the Gram
mar, intermediate and Primary
rooms of the Saratoga schools,
under the teachers of each room,
Miss Flood, Mrs. Ekdahl aud Miss
Doggett, was excellent. The cur
tain went up at s p. m. in the hall
and the entertainment started with
a song by the girls of the Primary
room, followed one after another
by Rotations, songs and a couple
of little plays. The house was
crowded and enjoyed the work of
both the younger and older pu-
pills. The entertainment lasted
until II o'clock, being one of the
longest entertainments ever given
here by any school. 1t would be
a hard matter to give all credit
that deserved it, as there were so
many in the program that we
could hardly do each justice, but
they all did well.
The entertainment was for the
purpose of purchasing some min
or paraphernalia for the play
grounds at the school, and about
1913 was realized. The teachers
and pupils wish to express theil
appreciation to all who attended
and to thank all who helped il
various ways.

Birthday Party.
Contributed. y.

A day long to be remembered
by the Juniors of this town, was
Friday, May 21st, when Mrs. Nc
Kinney gave an informal party at
her home in honor of Miss May
ties eighth birthday.
A most enjoyable afternoon was
spent in out-of-door games, no
pains having been spared by this
generous hostess to make ready
for the occasion.
Refreshments, consisting of
sherbet, oranges and cakes were
served before the happy crowd
left for their homes. Miss May
tie was the recipient of several
very useful and pretty gifts, by
which to remember the occasion.

Memorial Day.

Only yesterday, we walked again thru the pages of history, where
the Blue and the Gray met in the combat of 81 on the field of strife
and death; DER the ground once soaked with the blood of man and
beast; down DER the fields, where once men struggled, and the din
and roar of musket and canon drowned the cry of the wounded and
dying; where life stood at the portals of hell in defiance of death, and
battled on for flag and country that posterity might enjoy a united
nation for future power and good.
On the silent fields we stood whore once all was turmoil and
strife. In our minds we formed the battle lines of yesteryear, and i'll
the now silent air w saw the mystic forms of men in blue and gray,
where once the tensions strained the hearts of men. God bless them,
they are mostly gone, and as the years roll on, their memory grows
and time will meier diminish the deeds of 81 in the hearts of the ma
ton of Stars and Stripes; and on the graves, Memorial Day, the low
ing memory will shine out thru all the years in the nesting flowers
that cover the mounds, and the tiny flags that will wave over the
graves of both the Blue and the Gray. So long as life shall last, so
long as the Stars and Stripes shall wave, your memory will still be
green and fresh as the flower thoughts that brighten the mounds
each year ON Memorial Day.

Court Restores Sight to One-Eyed Clerk.

Much ado over nothing was the hew and cry of the County
Demo Organ, as it ground out in cold screams the disgraceful crook
edness of the election clerks and judges in the Saratoga precinct of
last election. True the Democratic clerk had but one eye, but that
eye is yet a better, far-seeng eye than most of the rest of the party
possess in their two eyes. The ballots of Rawlins Nc. l were counted
and so were the ballots of Saratoga No. IL and they came out as GER
tilted to by the clerks and judges of the two precincts in question
and under the careful eye of the court, and Judging from the results,
that eye of the court was no better than the eye of the NEARLY blind"
democratic clerk of this precinct. OF course the Sun was assailed,
sinfully, for uphoding the judges and clerks of this precinct, and
probably to our backs we were abused like pickpockets, but just the
same, in this, as in everything else, the Sun came out on top, vindi-
Gated, as was the one-eyed clerk. And by the way, this here "half-
blind" clerk shoots a % rife for practice and we have seen him hit
% empty shells in the air one after another, and really that is quite
| a feat for q man that can't see. About the funniest thing We have
read lately is the following clipping from a certain rag, which had
taken considerable space to tell about the crooked work, and now
prints this instead of coming out and taking back the lies it tried to
put over on the people, and here she am:
"The election contest brought by A. A. Robertson
against Rubie Rivera was heard before Judge Mentzger yes
terday and after the ballots of precinct No. of this city
were counted, Attorney Blydenburgh moved that the case
be dismissed, which was done"
Pretty mild for one who swung both fists and screamed and
stormed and yelled. Even some of the "dotty' come to one in
awhile and that was probably written at a partly sane" moment.
More than likely the shock of the recounting brought them partly
around, as the sight of blood sometimes sobers the drunk.
