Thursdays Program.

Great interest was added to the cele-
bration of 'Bopcr Days Thursday by
the arrival of a special train from
Lewiston which brought delegation
of more than Cne hundred Elks and
their friends and families and the
Lewiston Municipal band. The train
arrived at eleven o'clock and the dele
cation marched from the depot
through the streets, headed by the
Lewiston band and was followed by
the Cowboy organization. The interest
which was shown by the Lewiston peo-
pie throughout the days program. on
the streets, at the park, and at the
dances, did much to make the program
of the day a decided success. 1t is
hoped that the people of the prairie
country will reciprocate when the
lie wiston-Clarkston fair takes place
at Lewiston. September 1926.
The afternoons program at the Bor-
deg DayF park attracted a record
crowd. All of the bleachers were filled
to their capacity and many people
were standing. Many events of an
amusing nature added to the after
moons enjoyment. 1t would be a
shame to neglect mentioning the uneX-
expected bucking exhibition staged be
fore the opening of the program by
Sam Jones. The rider showed good
sticking qualities but the cntangle-
ments Of the rope with which he was
