MAKING THE FINAL
PLANS FOR BIG DAY
At PEORIA JULY 4

PEORIA, June 24.--Final plans
having been completed for the big
celebration that is to be held in Peo-
ria the Fourth of July, work Is now
in progress perfecting the final de-
tails. All citizens of Peoria are en-
Enthusiastically working for the big
gest and best time that has ever been
held in this part of the county.
The volunteer fire department has
planned to lay the dust in the entire
town the night before the celebration,
using the fire hose and convenient
ditch for that purpose. This will as
sure the visitors of the town a good
clean place with no dust.
The program committee has now
about all plans perfected and only
posters for the day. No team has
been secured for a game against the
Glendale Greys during the afternoon
of the celebration. Hon. Joseph H.
Kibbey has been secured to give the
address of the day in the city park
after which many athletic events will
be indulged in. There will be all
kinds of races for both boys and
girls, contests of skill and strength
and other amusing features to help
the people enjoy the day to the ut
most. 1t is intended that a girls
team from Glendale and Peoria will
play a seyen-inning baseball game.
However, this is not authentic.
After the athletic contests there will
be basket lunch in the park and in
the afternoon the ball game. In the
cool of the evening it is the intention
of Peoria people to retire to Glendale
beach north of Glendale and there en-
fTxf fxaor lat. 81 Af,acs

park in Phoenix.
Another feature of the day that will
no doubt hold much interest to the
business fraternity of both Glendale
and Peoria will be the monster street
parade that will be held about 1l
o clock in the morning. Various bust
ness houses and organizations will
enter floats and word has been re-
ceived from Glendale that a number
will be entered from that town.
