than previously was the case on
the opening day.
Visitors land about everybody from
Red Lodge is included so far praise
the fair. The exhibits are large and
varied; the races and rodeo are eclip-
sing former events; the fireworks are
beyond compare, and everything is go
ing smoothly. Even the weather man
has outshone previous efforts.
At the time of going to press we
are unable to give list of Carbon
county winners in the various ex-
hibits. We are fortunate in receiving
a list of poultry winners, but next
week we hope to give a complete
roster of various classes.

second on gladiolus in the flower de
partment.

counties were the principal winners
in general exhibits, according to wore

Great crowds Of people in holiday
attire, music during the day and eve
ming by the Red Lodge City band, a
magnificent parade, several very able
addresses, an interesting program of
sports and games, ending with dance
at night, describes in some measure
the Labor day celebration held in this
city last Monday.
1t was perfect day and everyone
of the thousands who made up the
crowd, seemed imhued with the spirit
of the occasion. They began arriv-
ing at an early hour and before 9
o'clock, when the program was to
commence, the people of the city and
great numbers from the surrounding
towns and country were on the streets.
Broadway was decorated from end to
end with the national coors and
everyone entered into the spirit of the
day and both old and young had
good time.
The program opened at 8 o'clock
with what was perhaps one of the
largest parades ever seen in this city
on like occasions; lead by the Red
Lodge City band, school children to
the number of $50 and members of the
Red Lodge Washoe and Bearcreek
locals, numbering in excess of $50, it
left the Labor Temple and headed up
Broadway to Sixteenth street and re-
turned to the band stand, near the
depot where the literary exercises
were to be held and where it dis
banded.
Before the speaking program begun,
the committee in charge treated the
children, in excess of 600, giving each
one a suitable box of CONNECTIONS that
added to the general enjoyment of the
occasion.
After a selection by the municipal
band, Robert Condor, president of
district No. 27, and who acted as
chairman, called the meeting to order

SMITH,
OF BOYD, LEADER
IN PRINCESS RACE
Interesting Contest VIII
End in Two
Weeks.

Only two weeks remain IN which
to find who is princess of Carbon
county. The race has begun to tighten
up and the fortunate young lady will
soon begin making plans for the visit
to the capitol Of Montana, where she
will be feted and honored and as an
ultimate sequel, will compete in the
finals as to who is queen Of Montana.
Many counties are not competing in
the contest this year, so that the
chances for being chosen for the great
honor will not be so handicapped-it
is going to be easy this year to win
the coveted honor.
The counting Of the ballots for the
first time at o'clock Wednesday aft
ernoon by the judges was a momen-
tous occasion. Twelve contestants re-
main, as several of the candidates
withdrew and many of these show
that they are working hard and
earnestly. The vote now stands as
follows.

The judges this year are Miss
Ramona Berta Of Flashman's News
Stand queen of Montana in 1925; Miss
Caroline Reber of the Grove Store,
and Ray Houton of the Star Meat
company. The next count they make
will be next Wednesday afternoon at
5 o'clock and the final count will be
at 8 o'clock Thursday morning, Sept.
20. This count will decide who is en-
titled to go to Helena as represent
ative of Carbon county. The judges
invite all interested to be in att nd
ance during the counting of the bal
| lots.
The contest this year is Of very
short duration and will mean that the
young lady having the most ambition
to win will do SO by Soliciting sub
scriptions, both old and new, and free
votes. As an extra inducement the
Carbon County News will offer a
handsome bonus this week in the way
of added votes for the collecting of old
subscription accounts. For every 10
or more renewal subscriptions an adj
Ied 1000 votes will be given. This
means that for 10 renewal oscrip-
tions this week, 10000 extra votes will
be given as wen as the regular num-
ber., You must turn in 10 or more of
the subscriptions in order to merit
tbs bonus.
Several young ladies were entered
by friends from the Bridger section,
but all withdrew in favor of Miss
Evelyn Rhodes. This was the case in
other communities. However, their
withdrawal was only with the view
of throwing all the work in favor of
one candidate and any votes they had
cannot be placed TO the credit of the
remaining candidates. Each contest
ant must win her own votes by her
individual merit.
There is still two weeks in which to
work. There are II contestants and
by the work being done, it is hard to
predict Who may be in the lead next
week al this time, Nothing ever was
gained mat was not worked for and
some young lady will show what her
efforts are. Those who drop out
from the race now will do so only be-
cause they do not care to strive for
the honor.
We shall have an important an
nouncement to make next week. Now,
all together, make clean race for the
privilege of attending the Montana
State fair, being dined and enter
tanned, and as a final climax, selecting
some one of the visiting fair young
ladies of the state to sit on the throne
for the coming year as queen Of the
greatest state in the union.

MARYE and 'MOM'
n
THEIR LETTERS
BY RUTH DEWEY GROVES

BY RUTH DEWEY GROVES
Nom Dear:
You know like to apply theories
and PHILOSOPHERS to my own affairs
so I'm going to test this companion
snip of marriage.
Alan sometimes doesn't want to
accompany me to the places wish
to go. The next time he refuses I'm
not going to coax. I'll just call up
a friend and see what happens.
I think I'll have a chance to try
it out tonight. Michele is having a
soiree and we're all invited. But
Alan says he isn't going because he
hates coloratur voices and Michele
announces an hour of music with
Madam NoblatShevski. He knew her
in Russia. I'd never heard Of her
before and neither had Alan. He
wouldn't have refused to &C but
Mabel happened to mention her be-
ing a coloratura and that settled it.
Alan said he wouldn't go and sit
croSslegged on the floor listening
for an hour to a lot of Screeching. !
don't know where he got the idea of
sitting on the floor unless he's been
to one of these affairs before and
knows more about them than do.
Florence isn't going because she
caught cold and her nose Is red and
swollen. I wouldn't miss it even ii
I have to go alone, but I don't think
Michele would object if I brought
someone in Alan's place.
Just now 1 can't think Of anyone
except Billy. That's one disadvan-
tage of marriage. You may have a
fairly constant companion in your
husband but when he balks where
are you? If we haven't got boy
friend we're out of luck. However,
think Norman may show up in
time to blow over to Michello'S with
me.
I think it would be nice if took
over some of the flowers Michele
sent to Florence. She might like to
have them on the dinner table and
if Norman is there I can spring the
soiree on him. But first I'll give
Alan a good chance to come through
with that constant companionship
stuff. Only don't think I ought to
drag him to something he isn't in
terested in and I can't see why I
should miss such an occasion just
because he won't take he, do you?
Lovingly,
MARYE.
