What promises to be the biggest
Labor Day picnic ever held in this
city will be this years affair.
Never in the history of Trades
Council has there been so much in

the committee as Is displayed by
this years committee In charge.
This is the twenty fifth anniver
sary of the affair and this years
will be the silver jubilee celebra-
tion. Last year the committee DIS
pensed with fireworks, but this
proved so disappointing to the
public that the committee is likely
to put on display this year again.
If they do the public can feel as.
sured It will be a good one as every
one knows that the Labor Day
Outing fireworks display is always
handsome one and worth going
miles to see.
The committee in addition to
many other amusements and attrac
tions Is contemplating putting on
motorcycle races in the afternoon.
This will be done providing they
can get the assurance Of plenty
good riders. Good riders, especial
ly on this day, are in great demand
The parade this year will be the
largest in the history of the organ
ization. Many new organizations
will be seen in it. All the locals
in the city have made big gains il
membership, in fact some of them
have more than doubled it during
the past year. The committee has
already contracted for three bands
and expect to hire several more.
