THINGS ALL SET
FOR BIC.FOURTH
CELEBRATION

5
union is to be held in Winslow on
July 4th Everything is set for the
big event and the rest is up to the
people of the vicinity to interest
themselves in the affAir and get busy
on the turnout.
The card of events is {. full one and
there is to be something that will in
terest everyone and stir the most
lethargic to enthusiasm and genuine
enjoyment of the day.
The contests enumerated are real
ones. They are for real workers.
Professionals ale not to be listed as
performers and every man who has
skill with the rope or in kindred ranch
work will have a chance to show his
class and speed
1t begins to look like July 4th is to
be a full day and it is thought pos
sible that it may prove SO full that
it may be necessary to carry the pro-
gram over to the second day.
There is to be something moving
every minute on the ground or in the
air.
The events open with a parade
which will leave the Bazell camp
ground at $50 a. m. sharp. Everyone
with car is invited to- get into the
parade and join the others to make
a real parade to the reunion grounds
which will be the arena where the
events will be staged
All contestants must register. Pay
entrance fees and draw numbers on
July 3, entries closing at noon, that
day. Headquarters for visitors and
contestants will be the second floor of
the old Elks building. Information for
strangers and visitors can be had
there. af
During the morning Aviator Russell
Hall is to do an hour and half stunt
flying in his naval plane. He is a.
capable artist with the air machine
and promises some thrillers for the
visitors. In the afternoon he will
again fly in the stunt game. AT night
he will take the air with his plane
trimmed with fireworks These are
to be lighted and discharged while in
flight This promises to be one of the
most spectacular and beautiful events
of the day or evening.
Other fireworks are to be displayed
during the evening in special compli-
ance with the desires of the young
sters who were anxious to see fire
works display at that time.
Eleven events, each an exciting one,
are scheduled to be put on during the
day at the reunion grounds. These
will be real stunts by real cowboys
and Indians and they will be put on
with the abandon and skill we'll known
to be possessed by the ranch riders
of the west.
Fully 500 Indians have promised to
be here from the Hopi Ind other res
ervations. They will spend couple
of days trekking to this city for the
celebration that will remind them of
events of the past when the west was
still younger than it is today. Cow
boys have promised to be here in
large numbers and some of the frisk-
lest bronchoS in the business are re-
ported grooming for the bucking con-
tests.
The program is iStrikingly varied
and all styles of horsemanship will
be given play; skill of hand and eye
supplemented by wiry muscles will
take home the bacon that day.
AS noted before, pair of famous
educated movie horses are to be pres
ent to show some of the stunts the
more peaceful and educs ted members
of the equine family can accomplish.
This will be a decided contrast to the
performances of the western ponies
which will appear in the field, the
latter no less educated in their way
and as sure of foot as any horse that
grows.
This is the first time that the peo-
pie of this city have had chance to
witness a similar program here. 1t
will probably prove one of the biggest
events staged here, with a list of
prizes totaling $500 1t will be
good day for tourists to stay over and
take in a series of event that they
probably will not be able to see again
