Years Success.
Season tickets for the annual food
fair which opens next Monday for
the entire week, are now being sold
by the high school girls. They may

The May day ball will be held on
Monday, and will open with the US

the program. Souvenirs and prizes
of many descriptions are to be given
away.
An interesting exhibition is ex-
pected from the Thorsen Farms,
which will display it's products, and
of the home-brew variety-pure
milk only.
The mystery booth cannot fail to
please. The contributions are worth
while goods, every article having a
value of ten cents or more. Con-
Itributions of books, games, puzzles,
etc, suitablefor this booth, are re-
quested. Many dollars were earned
by this booth last year, and it is
hoped that very large sum will be
earned again this season.

plan of sale similar to that of last
year. Each ward will have a day of
selling, and keen rivalry is expected
as each ward tries to win the dis
tinetion of selling the most food.
Last year the sales were very close.
There will be something doing
every hour of day and evening at the
food fair. Barney's orchestra Of
Watervile will furnish music during
the afternoons and for dancing every
evening, the radio-phone will furnish
novel entertainment and the Boost
ers and demonstrators will fill in the
