Every Year We Celebrate The Crowd
is Larger Than the Year Before.
Every Community for Miles
Around Represented.
The day was born to all patriotic
hearts bv a half hour’s salute, which
was pulled off about the peep of day,
and awolte all for a long distance. In
the absence of cannon dynamite an-
swered well the purpose.
About ten o’clock the Garber band
dispersed some good music to the crowd
that had commenced to gather for a day
of merry making and shortly thereafter
the band led the crowd to the ball
ground where the Garber and Billings
hall teams were to do their utmost to
entertain all comers until noon.
This proved to be a ten inning hotly
contested game, which tasted one hour
and thirty minutes and was won by
Billings. The game as we caught it

hard to score. First man out on fly,
next two reached base and third out was

Garber's last chance and they tried
hard t* score. The first man filed out.
The second man was put out at first.
Next man reached first on error by
shortstop. Tne last struck out leaving
i one dead on base. No run.
Billings: This is where Billings won
I by Powers making a two base hit and
! having the support that let him score,
[ending the hottest contested games
' of the Beason.
The game ended at 12:30 and the
crowd dispered for dinner.
At two p. m. the Hon. Judge Whit-
tingbill held a packed pavilion of hu-
manity for over half an hour by hie
words of patriotism. The next on the
program were the races. The first was
a man’s 75-yard dash for $5.00 and was
won by Chap* Irvin.
The next was a boy’s sack race for *2
and was won by Leslie Kelso.
The next, the ladies race of 50 yards
for $5.00 was beaten by Maud Wenger.
Led by the band the crowd was then
escorted to witness the second ball
game between the rivals for the honors
in the morning game.
This game was very interesting the
first five innings but after that one er-
ror piled up on top of another but the
blame could not rest anywhere as the
men were worked down over the morn-
ing game and the heat was too intense
for them to hold up.
Garber made tne first score which
wa6 in the second inning.
At the end of the game the score

A GOOD RESULT.
Under the operation of the new Pure
Food Laws, baking powders now gen-
erally bear on the labels a statement of
the ingredients. This is of utmost im-
portance because of the harmful in-
grediente used in many cases.
Royal Baking Powder is known to be
the only baking powder made of Royal
Grape Cream of Tartar, and this no
doubt explains its greatly increased Bale
here.
Careful housekeepers are taking ad-
vantage of the protection which the
Laws afford, and are examining all the
reading matter on the back of the label
before adopting any brand for use in
the home.
When in place of the words Cream of
Tartar the words "alum” "aluminum
or “phosphate of lime” appear among
the ingredients, they heed the warning
and avoid baking powders containing
these substitutes.
Nearly all old-fashioned Coughs Syrups
an- constipating, especially those that
contain opiates. They don’t act just
right. Kennedy’s Laxative Cough Hry-
iip contains no opiates. It drives the
cold out of the system by nenlly moving
the bowels. Contains Honey and Tar
and tasies nearly as good as maple sj i-
up. Children like it. Sold ul City

CLAIMS OKLAHOMA "WILD"
Washington, July 1.—No girls from
the census buieau will be sent to Ok-
lahoma to help make tabulations on the
Oklahoma census.
The officials in charge say that Okla-
homa is too wild and woolly for Wash-
ington girls. When the president is-
sued an order recently to take the cen-
sus of the proposed new state there was
a great scramble among the clerks in
the Washington census bureau for the
jobs at field headquarters. They all
regarded it as a nice jaunt at govern-
ment expense.
Among the scramblers for the places
weie numerous women clerks. Like
the men, they began to bring political
influence to bear. A western senator
wanted the bureau officials to detail a
girl from his state, now employed in
the bureau, to the Guthrie office.
“I would be glad to accoraodan
said the census official, but the fact is
we will smd no women clerks to Okla-
homa. That is a new country and too
wild for Washington girls.” Okla-
homa State Capital*
