Day; People to Decide Doll
Parade Winners

The big day is here, and with it
comes a celebration which will &C.
cupy a distinct place in the history
of good times in Winnemucca.
Monday, Labor Day, is the day, and
all doubt has now been swept aside
concerning its grand success.
One squirt at the program which
appears elsewhere in this issue, will
convince the reader that the events
of the day have been most carefully
selected, thus affording amusement
and entertainment to every person,
young or old, adult or child who
looks to Labor Day in Winnemucca
to provide something out Of the
ordinary, something different to
catch and hold the fancy Of youth
or old age.
The little tots are going to do a
lot to lend the air of success to
the events of the day, for among
other things. one of the chief at
fractions will be the decorated
doll parade, in which large num-
Der of children have already signi-
fled the intention of entering. Guy
Asbury, who has been working day
and night to make this a greater
success even than it has been dur
ing past years, and that's going
some as those who have witnessed
previous parades will say, promises
that this will be some show. He
has provided a great number of
beautiful dolls in addition to the
three which will be offered to each
child entering the parade.
In the past 1t has been found to
be most difficult matter for the
judges to properly award the prizes
in this contest, and present indica-
tons are that even greater diff
Guilty will be experienced in this
event on next Monday. Those in
charge of the celebration have there
fore hit upon the happy solution
Of letting the public be the judge
of the winners, and have accord
ingly arranged with Manager Oastler
of the American theatre to have,
in addition to the parade in the
morning, which will be held accord
ing to schedule as appearing on the
days program, a review in the even
ing of all participants in the doll
parade, the kiddies to appear in
full costume again in the evening,
with their dolls and doll buggies.
On this account, Mr.. Oastler has
decided to hold his performance of
"Dinty," featuring Wesley "Freck-
els" Barry at the Nixon opera house
on that evening, and the doll review
will be an added attraction.
The winners of the prizes in this
event will be awarded the prizes
at that time, decision to be made
by applause from the audience. As
an added feature, Manager Oastler
will issue free passes to every
mother entering her youngster in
the parade, and will also admit free
every child entering in the parade,
to the show on Monday evening.
The winners of the doll parade will
be judged and announced before
the regular program of the evening
commences and the show itself will
be over in time for the big dance
which commences promptly at nine
thirty.
Five hundred top balloons have
been provided, to be given to chill
dren, it being estimated that this
number will provide one balloon for
each child visiting the Zone. The
balloons are to be free, with COM
pliments of the Chamber Of Com
merce. If arrangements can be
