time have been a joy to all who have
had the privilege of listening to
them.
The combination of the bands of
the two cities vas effected the middle
part of June and besides giving both
cities the advantage of excellent
music the relation of neighbors has
been further cemented and the good
will that exists between Rawlins and
Parco is exemplifed by an organ-
ization hat is as good as any in the
state.
The men who compose the p. &
r. band are as follows: Joe Barros,
leader, Fred Lara, r. G.. Engstrom,

Already at Parco there is an i'm

arrives brings more visitors. Auto
loads of visitors are also arriving
constantly and the wonderful man
ner in which accommodations are be-

Every available space at Parco is
being used and a great many of the
visitors have found accommodations
in Rawlins.
Bernardi's carnival is materially
assisting in making this opening cele-
bration a success by running contin-
ually from o o'clock in the morning

This evening the big dance at the

feature OF the evening and will vie
with the carnival in furnishing
amusement for the crowd.
