ious displays and contests to be
held at the Harvest Festival Satur-
day, October 8. It is the wish Of
the Community Club officers that
this years festival outshine all
others, and they are making every
effort to accomplish that endeavor.
At a meeting Of the various COM
mittees Tuesday evening final
plans for all departments were
made, and the enthusiasm and Wig
or displayed by the committeeman
would lead one to believe that the
festival will go over with bang
as advertised.
This years festival will include
an all-day program, which will open
at $50 in the morning with a con-
cert by the Beginners Band. En-
tries of home, garden and farm
products, must be completed and in
place before ten o'clock, after
which the judging will take place.
For the convenience of those who
will be unable to get in before that
time Saturday morning, entries will
be taken all day Friday.
One of the surprise numbers on
the program will be the balloon
event at 10 a. m. There will be
special entertainment, and other
numbers will include band concerts,
drum corps, parades, sports for
both young and old, all to culmin-
ate with the free pavement dance
at nine o'clock. The music for the
dance will be furnished by Rudy
Lano and his six-piece orchestra
from Long Prairie.
Musical organizations which will
play during the day will be the
Sank Centre Boys and Girls band,
the Beginners band, and The Little
German Band The v. F. w. Boys
Drum Corps will parade through
the streets and will offer the many
formations in drill work they have
mastered.
During the day the Community
Club rooms will be open and may
be used as additional rest room for
visiting women and children. All
are invited to make use of the room
at any time of the day.
Community Club officers ask that
every businessman of the city
spend at least one hour on the
street during the day. 1t is also de-

time during the day to relieve COM
