j The Lewiston Lodge OF
Knights of Pythias and Dok-
khhs will open the Lewiston
Charleston TG-State Fair and
Round Up on September 18th
and notices to fraternal broth
ers in the surrounding country
are now being sent out. The
Dokkies are planning on making
this big lodge event and are
offering special inducements for
applications for membership to
be filed prior to the fair open
ing.
The Dokkies will stage a mon
ster street parade in the bust
ness district on the forenoon of
the fair opening and will be as
sisted by the Indians and the
cowboys and cowgirls who will
add color to the occasion. They
will provide many special fea-
lures at the fair grounds, the
rLans being to have the lodge
fun-makers stage many of their
best stunts between the track
and arena events.
Reports from the fair office
during the past few days show
plans now complete as far as
the daily program is concerned.
Charles E. Parker, who will be
in charge of the race program,
states the racing stables will
have more and better horses
than have been at Lewiston forl
many years. 1t is the purpose
of the fair management to fea-
ture the racing and arena events
as entertainment and amusement
offerings. The arena will be
so that the program
staged there will in no wise in
terfere with the racing card and
bvv this arrangement there will
be a continuous performance
Turing the entire afternoon. The
offering will be little short of
! three-ring circus because the
has contracted for
10 many special features that it
will be necessary to have the
workers busy at several points
o get the entire offering before
he public in a single afternoon.

water supply situation. He is
considering the plan of laying a

now the practice. By the pres

when extraordinary demands are
made upon the supply, such as
usually come with harvest, the

pumping directly into the tank

therefrom circulation would
be maintained which it is fig
