WORK OF CITY
FAIRGROUNDS
GREAT SUCCESS
AledO's Experience This Season
Makes Certain That Activities
viii be Continued.

Supervised Fairgrounds work
was launched successfully in Aledo
this summer. Under direction of
Mrs. T. W. Leary of Chicago, en-
roIIment of this city's little folk
grew from a mere handful to over
140 in group center work, while
large numbers of the older young
sters assembled daily on the mu-
nicipal Fairgrounds at North park
and enjoyed systemized sports and
athletic features.
On this page is shown a group OF
children gathered about Mrs. John
Wilson at the NJ. H. Bigsby group
center, listening intently to a story
of fairies and kings, beautiful
princesses and knights bold. The
pleasure which the little tots took
in the work is depicted convinc-
ingly by the rapt attention be-
slowed by theR upon their story
teller.
The idea of supervised play
ground work for Aledo's children
originated at the Mercer county
fair of 1917, when a week of the
work was given under direction of
a paid instructor. This summer
public spirited citizens of the COM
munity began agitation for the
work. A committee of live boost
ers was appointed. A drive was
launched for funds with which to
carry out plans as contemplated.
In a remarkably short space of
time over $500. the required sum,
was donated by popular subscrip-
ton.
Director Is Capable.
AS Fairgrounds supervisor, Mrs.
T. W. Leary, superintendent of one
of the recreation centers in Chi
cago and bearing high recon-
mendations as a Fairgrounds di-
rector, was employed for a five
weeks period. Ability to handle
youngsters without loss of pres
tige and familiarity with all forms
of child play and sports, also kin
dergarten work, assured Mrs.
Leary's success from the start.
By means of the playground
younger folk was kept
from the street. The youngsters
spent their time in healthful games
or other form of amusement. There
is no doubt of the beneficial re-
suits obtained by the innovation.
1t is hoped to continue once-a-
week meetings at the public Ii
brary each week during the win
ter under supervision of Mrs. Will
son. That the work will be re-
sumed next summer is practically
assured

GAME LOST IN

Standard Four Is Defeated at Bona

Runs Come Over on

The Standard Four team had a bit
of hard luck at Bonaparte yesterday
and lost to the team there by the
score of to 5. Bonaparte virtually
won the game in the ninth when they
pushed two runs over on one hit.
Errors behind Schard's pitching con-
tributed mainly to the locals defeat.
The tire makers have great praise
for the craftsmanship Of the Bona
parte bunch. Ray who Is playing
second for Keokuk, was called out
of the game by an accident to some
friends, who were in an auto
mobile that tried to go through a
bridge near Bonaparte. When it was
found that no one was hurt, anc

This condition was brought about
when the twelve men, comprising the
crew gathered UP their bag and bag

strike of boat crew on the Missis

Four men were picked up on the

The wires were kept hot between
Quincy and Burlington yesterday
morning, as the officials or the boat
made arrangements for having an
entirely new crew waiting on the
dock here when the steamer arrived.
Due to the shortage of labor, but few
men were picked up here and the
boat started on it's trip down the
river, yesterday afternoon, still snort

The crew gave no reason for strik-
