FIRST ANNUAL MOTHERS AND

Preparations are well under way
for the Mothers and Daughters OF
this stake to have a real outing to-
gether. Thursday, August 4, they
will all leave here for the beauty
spots in Mill creek canyon. They
will return Friday. 1t is expected

much so as the Fathers and Sons

CELEBRATION OF "a
WAS SUCCESS

Pioneer Day last Monday was on
of the best celebrations ever held il
Oakley or Cassia county. Previous
iy report had gone out from GER
tain quarters that "Cassia and Mini
doka counties would celebrate the
Twenty-Fourtb at Burleyl "Burley
county" may have celebrated al
Burley, but we cannot help feeling
that Cassia's big celebration was at
Oakley.
The Stars and Stripes were raised
by Rosel Hale and the Boy Scouts
at sunrise.
Among the main features of the
day were the program in the taber-
nacle, the sports for old and young,
the pageant at the Orpheum, the
baseball game, the children's dance,
The Oakley silver band furnished
excellent music throughout the day
The literary program was held in
the tabernacle, with Charles L.
Haight as Master of Ceremonies.
The orator of the day, Prof. j. Ly-
man Smith, gave a scholarly and ell
oquent address, in which he traced
thhe cause of certain misconceptions
regarding the L. d. S. church.
Prof Smith was at his best, and his
Grafton was well received.
The readings by Miss Geneva
Langlois and the special music were
in keeping with the high quality OF
the program.
The sports were held at the base
ball grounds Immediately after the
program. The children were, of
course, at the height of their glory,
some of the older people be-
came young again for few
minutes.
The Pageant was probably the !
best entertainment of any sort ever
held at Oakley. Great credit should /
be given Mrs. Maude M. Clark, the
director, and those who assisted her.
The subject matter of the pageant
was the early history of the Latter
Day Saint church and the colonial
lion of the desert. The different
parts were carried out with the ease
md elegance that characterize true
lrt.
We are printing the cast of char
letters on the back page of this
PAPER.
The baseball game did not turn
tut just right, for Kimberly won
rom Oakley 10 to z.
The band concerts were highly
njoyed by the people.

Attemps to Wreck Train.

Information comes from Florence to
the effect that three separate attempts
have made last week to wreck
trains on the line of the Atlantic
Coast Line railroad, formerly known
as the NJ. and A, between Florence
and Augusta. A peculiar feature Of
the attempts, none of which was sue
cessful, due to the vigilance of the
train crews, is that they were made
at or very near the point where En-
eineer Joseph Temple was killed when
his train was wrecked several weeks
ago. Another peculiar feature is that
only Atlantic Coast Line trains were
sought by the train wreckers, trains
of the C.. and w. G. Railroad having
been allowed to pass without any at
tempt at hindrance. In the case of
each of the attempts to wreck the
trains the ties and rails had been tam
pered with. The last train that pass
ed found that the switch had been
turned.
