WOODMAN OF THE WORLD RALLY Interesting Program, Big Crowd and a Grand Good Time En joyed By All. The YV. O. YV. Hally at Langlois last Friday and Saturday was, on a whole, a decided success, especially as the people of that place were laboring under a handicap caused by the late fire. Friday’s program was father short as the Bandon orchestra flailed to show up, and the morning’s enter tainment consisted of several songs and recitations that were well re ceived. The afternoon was given over to the ball game between Port Orford and Langlois, and the visit ing nine showed a philanthropic spirit (there’s no other way to ex press it) that would put a Carnegie to shame. The Port Orford boys left home with blood in their eye, but when they reached Langlois and saw the fire-swept ruins ol the little town a great wave of sympathy surged over them, and with it came a realization ot how grasping it would be to take a $50-purse away from our neighbors at such a time. It was really thought a little shame ful the way the Langlois boys took advantage of this generosity. They started a game of tag around the diamond and it looked like they would run their beads off before they quit. After it was all over the score stood 39 to 7— a lasting memorial to the bigheartedness of the visiting team. Saturday was the big day, and every minute was, taken up with iuteresting features. The forenoon program was excellent, consisting of speaking, singing and music by the Bandon Orchestra— among the orators who delivertd pleasing ad dresses, were Col. Rosa of Bandon, aud W. H. Metedith, of Port Orford. The afternoon was taken up with sports of various kinds The Ban- don ball team defeated Langlois 8 to 2 in an interesting game. Beu- lieu of Lakeport took the hundred yard foot race, and Colebrook's horse won the first free-for-all horse race; being defeated iater in a match race by Dug Cook’s Skipper colt. The rally ended with a large and successful dance, the proceeds of which went to the fire sufferers. Tickets were sold at donation prices and some $1200 or $ 1500 was raised in this manner. Good meals tor the occasion were furnished by Mrs Haft, who has temporary quarters over Bowman’s blacksmith shop. The visiting people went home well satisfied with the outing and speaking a good word for the hos pitality of theLaglois people.— Port Orford Tribune. $1.50 P er Y ear How it Used to be Done We Repair WATCHES CLOCKS JEWELRY COMBS BARRETTS PHONOCRAPHS We Do AGATE GRINDING AND POLISHING STONE SETTING RINC MAKINC ENCRAVINC Through the courtesy of Mr. Charles \Y‘ .
