Alfred Alibis Act
Seven carloads or Rodeo boosters
went (to Walla Walla Monday- night
to do a little boosting for the event
at the :ball game played under the
lights. The group paraded out on
the field with appropriate banners
and stunts and got a big kick from
the capacity audience. “Micky" Heb
erlein stopped a foul ball with her
head during the game, but without
serious. injury. PM Alfred
Amon claims he would have caught
the hall if he’d been a little more
Vaccustomed to his bifocal glasses.
Kids Are Cheap
It'll cost less than svdime'hr
kids under 13 to see the rodeo this

that ' every youngster in the com

seeing ~Kennewdck's his annual
show. The admission will he only

DO THE BUSINESS
“Here’s another classified ad
for the paper,” Wm. Mills, of
Hover said today. “I hope it is as
quick acting as all the other ads
I have put in your paper. They
sure get results quick. A bit ago
I advertised for a couple of calves.
The paper was hardly in the
mails until I began getting re
plies.” Mr. Mills’ experience is
similar to many other: in thh
community, for there is no quick
er or cheaper way of getting in
touch-with more than {in thous

classified columns of this paper.
