BKVKRIjY HILLS, July 21.
.lust conio in from the Sali
nas, ('ul., rodeo, n real slmw,
done mostly hy local cdw
piin'cliers and real old ranchers.
Five hundred mounted, so tho
horse is coming stronircr tliHii
ever. A parade of floats 'at
ni.'ht that would compare with
l'asadena'a famous show. .
If you think there is not un
employment just look at these
K flat Rolf eotirses and see the
amount of people out of work.
It's wonderful exercise you
stand on your feet for- hours
watching somebody else putt. It
is just the old fashioned pool
hull moved outdoors hut with
no chairs around the wall.
