waa not ii or ; I minor on cr near
the groum.tt information had come
to the memhus ot the executive ootn
mittee having iu i h rge the colebra-
lioo that an i tteuipt would likely be
made to conduct "blind pljfs" in the
adjoining wows hot the stringent
measures t.ik u scared out the fellows
and they worn to other celebrations.
As a prccant on sumo plain clothes
men were ug'ig.id to stroll through
the adjoining wood from time to
time o look lor tllioit liqoor sellers
aud to provide agaiimt contingencies.
Arthur KIIim, J. R. Wells, A. M.
Jess and N A. Stanley were ap
pointed marshals bat they had noth
ing to do only stand around and
look pleasant aud once in a while
admonish a boy to take his fire
crackers to tht p;rt of the grounds
apart for noise purposes, 'lhe teams
were kept off tue main grounds and iu
a part of the grove for their use aud
this work was carefully attended to by
Eiuil Centner. Sootl Robinson, and
K. A. Humtpou.
A noticeable foatoro of the day was
that there wer not a multitude of
babies crying aud disturbing the
apeiikcrH ami xiiiKera and annoying
nervous batchelors. And this was not
due to there Icing no babies pr seut
for the little ones were there in force,
but they were t.io comfortable to have
occasion to cry. That the babies
had their C" itifort attended to was
due to the thoughtfulueis of the
ladles rf the r. t room committee,
Mrs. John If. Kohinson, Mrs. Adeline
Clone. Mih. Hlmlicl Robiusoii and
Mrs. E. Krioksoii. Theite ladies had
a large lent erected on the grounds
aud lud il furni-hed with coti, eii-y
chairs, bains. water, towels and
other toilet cony, uieuces and plenty ot
cool drinking w.tter for the free ue
of tired moili rs and weury Indies.
That no mother and baby should fail
Io have an opi rtun.ty to tiki a quiet
rest, thrt lad i. s of the c miuiittce
would make tiips about the grouuds
and look ui Moiuen having young
I'liil.ln-n ami invite them to bring the
little ones to the ret tent so they
could take a sleep while the mothers
oould be tree io enjoy the pleasures,
of the day. During the afternoon the
rest lent li keil like a baby show in !
rooi. A tent iu which people could
place lunch I askets and wraps was
another convenience on the grounds, j
Anotht r innovation that was highly!
appreciated s that no firecrackers
or other expl. sives were allowed on I
the main grounds, a separate section '
of the grounds Isiing given over to the
liny with a marthal iu charge to

oa backs of the programs, the latter
being distributed to the audieuoe.
To add te the further e lTtvtiToDe.se of
the siogiug the singers were accom
panied by the Grant Pas Orchestra
of eight pieces under the lea.lership of
Mr. Demray. The orchestra also
gave several fine selections daring
the rendering of the program and
these were greatly appreciated by
the audience. The invocation wai
given by ReT. fcW. B. Pepper, pastor
of the M. E. Church at Wilderville,
and the Declaration of Independence
wa read io a most effective manner
by Miss Emma Lou?hridge, of (irants
Pass. The address in the program of
the forenoon was delivered by Dr: J.
W. Kerr, president of the Oregon
Agricultural College. Dr. Kerr de
voud the priuciial part of l is address
to the fuctor that tducatioo had come
to be iu the auricultural and indus
trial development of the country.
His address was not of the stereotyped
kiud beard at Fourth of July celebra
tions aud a it covered a topic of in
terest to his hearers and the doctor
beiug a public speaker of uioch above
the average he was able to hold the
close attention of the large audinnte.
As tli e exercises began promptly
on time Dr. Kerr wm able to finish
bis spucli befoie 13 o'clock instead of
well toward 1 o'clock as too of. en
Fourth of July speakers are compellfd
to do, and to talk to empty benches,
the audience having gone to their din-
ner. n attractive ieniure m mn
forenoon program was a uumber' of
girls, residents of Wilderville vicinity,
to represent states. They wore iu
three'groops, one dressed iu red, one
in white and one in blue and as tbey
were fine appearing girls they added
much to interest the of the occasion.
Two hours were spent at noon by
the picnicerg in enjoying a social
time and eating lunch from well
filled baskets The extensive grove
and chady nooks by the creek side
afforded delightful places for groans of
friends to gather aud while away the
time.
The afternoon exercises orened
with a concert of half an hour by the
Rogue River Baud that drew a large
crowd about the speaker's staud. The
Orants Pass orchestra then gave some
fine selections that won hearty en
cores from the audleuce. The ad
dress for the afternoon program was
given by J. J. Johnson, lecturer of
the Oregon State Orange. The topic
of Mr. Johnson's address waa the
Grange and he was giveii close atten
tion while he explained the work of
this orgauizatiou, that is to the farmer
a commercial club, a farmers institute
and a social order all in one and
which Is coming to be soch a power
ful factor in elevating the standard of
the farmers aud the fra8 iu the
United States. Mr. Johns" is a
forceful speaker and the mai points
he made will give au iiujetus to
the Grange moveuieut in Ro,-o River
Valley.
Fullowing the afternoon program
sports aud games were held at the
athletic grounds. A game of baseball
between a nine fiom Wilderville
vicinity aud a team from the vicinity
of Grants Fass resulted in a score cf
IS for the Grints Pass boys to 1'J for
the Wilderville. The gamo was a
lively oue and afforded a lot of fun
to the big crowd that witnessed it.
Foot races, pole vaulting and other
sports completed the amusemeuts in
the athletic Hue. Following the
afternoou program and during the
evening dancing mvk enjoyed by many
