With the opening of the program thousands of cheers were let loose and from then until the last wild horse was ridden the enthusiasm of the great crowd never ceased or slackened. A(side light to the Round-Up, not known by many, was the riendly rivalry between Mc Adoo. and Governor Olcott, who rode to gether in the parade around the arena. Friday McAdoo was mounted on a faster horse than the governor, who was left behind. Today the governor went on a quiet hunt for something faster as a mount, with the result that he managed to lead McAdoo and now feels that he has had his revenge. CONTRAST IS SHOWN The Westward Ho parade this morn ing, which is a prominent feature of the Round-Up each year, was the best ever given. At the head, carrying the flag of the United States, was Jinks Taylor, who holds this post each year. Following the colors came McAdoo and Sheriff Til Taylor, riding" side by aide and heading the long line of cowboys, cowgirls and hundreds of , Indians and others making up the parade, A novel sight of the parade was two airplanes, soaring over the line of march as it passed through the city and giving a vivid contrast between the means of travel when the pioneers crossed the plains, blazing the trail to the Oregon of today, and the new method of Boaring through the air like eagles. ; .

Sept. 20. The luck of Mrs. William Gibbs McAdoo proved too much for the gamekeepers at Happy Canyon Friday night. Of the many thousands that thronged the amusement place, crowding about the games and betting "bucks" with reckleas- abandon, the daughter of President Wilson had the greatest luck and broke the bank.

OF CONVOCATION NEW vs. OLD The Brunswick Method of Reproduction has established new standards of tone projection, due to two outstanding features two departures from old methods. The Ultona reproducer enables you to play all records at their best. Just a turn of the hand presents to each type the proper point and diaphragm, its exact position on the record, and the precise degree of pressure. As no one record make has all the desirable singers ami entertainers, the advantages of the Ultona are readily ap preciated. The Brunswick Amplifier brings out tones hitherto lost and eliminates the usual metallic sounds, for it is built en tirely of molded wood like a fine violin. Let us explain all the features of the Brunswick to you. We shall gladly put it to any test you wish.

Juliette goes to school, but says that she has not yet learned to write, although 7 years old. so sister Marie, 9 years old and the eldest in a family of three, acted as the scribe. A photograph Is promised. Accompanying the child's letter is an other, presumably from her teacher, as suring the Unity- children that their ward is deserving, and lauding Amer ica's generosity. It is signed by A. 3ergon of Sobiers, ' Coire, and is ad dressed to "Madam" . Chamberlain, mother of one of 'the Unity school chil dren. It tells of the hardships endured ty the Bres family, and gives the Bel gian mother's age as 29 years.
