The biggest Feat
The parade was followed by the
biggest feat of all when Rev. L Gar

nifty long enough to walk across Main
street and back in his bare feet,
This unusual proceeding was done in
response to the offer made by Jim
Hendricks and V. l.. Ballard to give
him ten dollars for the Red Cross
at the end of this performance. When
Rev Carver returned to the platform
the merriment subsidized, for he made
a most stirring appeal for the Red
Cross which resulted in $3.50 being
thrown from the crowd into the large
new wash tub which he held to catch
the donations.
