Visitors Second Aggregation

One of the snappiest high school
football games ever witnessed in Bara
boo took place Saturday afternoon on
the new Mary Rouutree-E Evans Mem
orial Athletic field of the Baraboo
High school when the local eleven de-
feated the Richland Center aggrega-
ton by a score of IA to Is, Although
the visitors had slightly an inferior
team to Baraboo's we'll drilled ma
chine, the neighboring county boys
had luck on their side and gained two
touchdowns but failed to kick one Of
the goals. Each team made a touch
down before three minutes of the
game had elapsed. Baraboo scored
first when Boyd, local left end, block
ed a kick Of the visitors. Richland

off when they uncorked deceiving
criss-cross pass.

made on tumble and Baraboo scored
the second time on a forward pass.

all set for touchdown, having es-
capped all but the safety. billiards.
punts were the kind that are hard
to catch, high spirals. Cooper was
under most of the passes that netted
long gains and Boyd, Simonson and
Gafke did their share in the running
and tackling. Baraboo's line held fast
against everything the visitors tried
to pierce it with.

MRS. RODGERS
TALKS STYLES
Tells Women of Kennewick
More About Showings
For Autumn

The editor last week attempted to
tell the readers of the Courier-Re-
porter some of the things which Mrs.
ID G. Rodgers had told him about the
fall fashions in women's wear. He
didn't get very far. Just from the
Gloria Swanson swirl to the beads a.
round the neck.
Yes, we have no suits, this fall.
That is, suits as yet are not being
extensively shown. The urge of the
fashion makers is apparently behind
coats and dresses. OF course there
are both two and three piece suits in
duvetyn OF other pile fabrics. Straight
line coats, much fur trimming and
some embroidery. The little Sports
Taileurs" are making headway. These
employ fabrics of sports type, de-
veloped with short, hip-length jackets
with low fastenings. The three-quart-
er length jacket is gaining in favor.

EI.BERTAS ARE
NOW MOVING
Mixed Fruits and Cant's
Hold Good Demand at
Moderate Prices

Down on "Fruit Row" may be found
the scene of Kennewick's greatest
activity. Every warehouse in oper-
alton is teeming with activity, boxes
piled high on the platforms are filled
with pears, plums, prunes and summer
apples to be sorted, graded and packed
for storage or shipment as occasion
demands.
Inside, the scene depicts beehive
of industry. Women from many OF
the best homes in the valley are en-
gagged with the all-important problem
Of proper grading and packing by
which this valley has won and main
tains its envied reputation for staple
products Of the orchard.s
There are as many men as womer
who are trucking fruit, loading cars
and making boxes. All are busily
and happily engaged in the discharge
of their sundry duties.
Elberta peaches are coming in at q
rapidly increasing rate and the early
demand for this variety is reported
good. Cash buyers are offering from
so to so cents according to size and
quality.
At the Big Y, Tuesdays receipts
were 3795 boxes of peaches, prunes
and pears which are going out ir
mixed car shipments daily. The first
straight car of Elbertas went out
from this house on, Wednesday, The
big cooling rooms are rapidly being
filled with pears from the. packing
room at the rate of 1900 boxes day
Lee M. Lampson, manager of the
g. Rivers Growers association is clean

shipments of which three cars wers
shipped Thursday with one more tt
follow that will finish the early po
tato crop. The price for the last few
cars was pried up from $25 to $27.5
per ton. The average price for the
season has not been determined t.
date but up to August 1, the figures
showed an average of better than S3'
ton.
The can't market opened at $2.7'
and while the acreage this year j.
very limited Kennewick's shipments
will not fall far below the averagt
season due to a large acreage on the
Pasco side which will be shipped from
here after being preceded in our loc
al plants.

This appealing cry for assistance
went out last night from the commit
tee room of the Agricultural Fair
association, in responce to the an
nouncement by one of it's officers
that more interest and local pride
must be shown by growers OF the val
ley in selecting, preparing and stor-
ing for exhibit purposes, the choicest
products of their farms, gardens ana
orchards.
Up to the present time, this fair
gives promise of being the biggest
and best undertaking of this sort
that we ever had said chairman c. Z.
Williams, but from now on its sue
cess or failure is very largely in the
hands of those who must furnish the
exhibits. We realize how unusually
busy everyone is in caring for, and
harvesting, the biggest crop in the
history of the valley but it's every
body's fair and everybody must, and

MOULTON SPEAKS
Enroute to Washington is Called OF
For Harding Eul0gy

Pursuant to orders every train on
the Northern Pacific system was
halted for five minutes last Friday
at given time to pay the due re-
spect to the memory of our fallen
president.
While proceeding to Washington
in the interest of the High Line,
train No. 2, on which Mr.. Moulton was
a passenger, was brought to stop
far out on the continental divide just
east of Butte, Montana, and when
passengers on every car on the train
had been congregated in the obser-
vation car by train officials, Mr..
Moulton was called on and introduced
by the train conductor as the orator
of the occasion.
Though unprepared through the
lack of previous knowledge of the
duty thus unexpectedly involved, Mr..
Moulton promptly responded with an
extemporaneous eulogy that did credit
to himself, to his audience and to
the mourning millions of the nation.

HARDING MEMORIAL
WELL ATTENDED
Citizens From Town and Surrounding
Country Meet to Pays Last Trib-
ute to Late President

The Methodist church auditorium
was filled Friday to nearly it's cap
acity by people from town and coun-
try, some of whom drove for miles
to attend the Union Memorial SER
vices conducted by the Ministerial
Association in honor Of the late pre-
sident, Warren G. Harding.
In compliance with the proclama-
ton of Mayor Desgranges, every busi-
ness house was closed from IL to 2,
and many remained closed throughout
the balance Of the day.
Promptly at 100 o'clock, the SER
vices were opened with prayer by the
Rev. Fred w. Carstens, former pastor
of Baptist church at Seattle, which
was followed by t'Lead Kindly Light"
lead by the Methodist chior.
The eulogy was delivered by A. r.
Gardner who prefaced his remarks
with the wish that he might have
been spared one of the saddest duties
of his life which fell to him as the
layman representative Of the COM
munity.
Many were the tears of the con-
gregation as he reviewed the beautiful
character and exemplary precepts of
the stricken president which in many
respects he characterized as compar-
able with the life of Lincoln.
In referring to The Man as editor
of the Marion Star, he read Harding's
Newspaper Greed which was pasted
on the wall of the editorial room of
the Marion Star for the guideance of
reporters and editors to "be truthful.
be fair and above all be clean"
Following is the text of the creed:
Remember there are two sides
to every question. Get both.
"Be truthful.
"Get the facts. Mistakes are in
evitable, but strive for accuracy. I
would rather have one story exactly
right than hundred half wrong.
BE decent. Be fair. Be generous.
