Scotch Celebration Was
Bigger an Better Than Ever

ing score prevailed here-l3 to 2,
with Emmett in the lead.
The evening concert was attend
ed by a large crowd, and all were
we'll pleased with the big show.
Tuesday morning dawned very
lowery, and before noon it looked
as though we would have even
more than a Scotch mist, but as
soon as the pipes began to play
the weather man got on his job
and held back the dampness until
after the program was over. But
the boys who were fighting it out
on the diamond got a trifle damp.
Yale and Emmett, the teams which
won the Monday contest were pit
ted against each other, and the
wet stuff put a stop to the fine
playing our team was putting up,
the visitors winning by a score
of II to 6.
The address of the afternoon
was made by Milo d. Campbell, of
Coldwater, farmer" candidate
for governor on the Republican
ticket. Mr.. Campbell made an ex-
ira effort to reach Yale, and by
travelling by auto and train all
of the previous night managed to
get here on the morning train.
lie certainly gave fine address,
illustrating his remarks by some
witty new stories, and he certain
ly made an impression among his
hearers. It's too bad the weather
,Had so bad, as a much larger
crowd would have been here to
hear this aspirant to the highest
Office in the gift of the people Of
the state.
The evening concert drew fair
sized crowd, and everybody was of
the opinion that the fifth annual
celebration of the Caledonian As
sociation was the best yet.
One thing we must mention in
connection with the celebration is
the fine lighting system which was
installed by VIM. Miller, agent in
this territory for the Delco Light
ing system. This is certainly a
wonderful lighting SYSTEM and
the people who were present at
the evening performances found
the grounds as brightly illumi-
mated as any hall could possibly
be. The society feels very CRATE
full to Mr.. Miller for coming to
their assistance in this matter.

Notes
Yes, we had some crowd.

Yes, we had some crowd.
One remark we heard q have
paid three times as much for one
quarter as much entertainment. F"
F.. The majority of the people
seem to think that Riverside Park
is the best place for the celebra-
ton.
The concession men all report
the finest business this season,
which goes to show that those who
were here were out for a good
time.
Next year the Association will
have something bigger and bet
ter" than ever, and the dates will
be Monday and Tuesday, July 4th
and 5th.
The ball games were played on
a pretty rough ground, but all the
boys seemed to be with the Asso-
citation in trying to give the peo-
pie good time.
The most deserted spot in the
city on the 4th, 5th and 9Th was
the city park. Only six families
picnicked there, and they came
for the celebration.
The only thing that happened to
mar the pleasures of the celebra-
tion was the appearance on the
first day of quantity of booze,
but the warning given those who
were "boot-legging" cut it out for
Tuesday. It's dirty shame that
these hoodlums can't behave as
decent, respectable citizens dc
when they get out for a good time

Mr. Bryan should in all fairness to himself
and those who follow him, offer himself as
candidate on platform that meets his full
for America. Happily there is another who has
arrogated to himself similar privileges. We
have reference. OF course, to Henry Ford.
Both of these gentlemen have insisted that
theirs Ia the only true way to political
heaven: that they are alone In their hatred OF
war and true democratic principles and ideals
Both have a strong following.
