CELEBRATION
FOURTH OF JULY
A live-wire bunch of merchants
got together last night in the cham
ber of commerce and It did not take
long to get under way with the pre
liminary work In the preparations
and plans for the Fourth of July
celebration
There were about 20 present, and
the celebration was discussed pro
and con in an informal way, the con
census of opinion appearing to be
that If properly handled, a two-day
event could be held that would sur
pass anything ever attempted in
Ashland before.
It was decided that July 3d be set
aside 1y the merchants as "Ford
day," the plan being to have a cele
bration on that day In which Ford
machines will be the dominating fac
tor In a big parade, drawn from the
whole countryside, and the mer
chants participating, to award as a
prize on that day, a Ford automo
bile. It Is proposed to finance the
affair by selling tickets to the mer
chants at a fixed sum, which they In
turn, will Issue to their customers,
each ticket representing a chance In
the drawing for the auto. It was
figured' that this would draw a large
crowd to the city on Monday, July
3d, who would remain over for the
celebration on the Fourth.
Committees were appointed to
lake up the various phases of the
-work of preparation and also to
make suitable arrangements for the
celebration on the Fourth. A mon

The numbers that won at the
Peerless shoe shop are: first, 86,

86,599. The winners have not called
to claim their prizes to date, and
the names are not known as yet.
