an even larger crowd than that which

chance, and the like. Paper money,
put out specially for the occasion,

Dancing, a gambling den of the
frontier days, music by a four-piece

among the many features which have
been arranged by the committee.

of the district look forward to the
ultimate utilization of lodgepole pine,
found near at hand in large quanti
ties, for pulp manufacture.-
