The Hominy farmers’ banquet, held
each year by the business men of
Hominy, to entertain their farmer
friends, and also to help boost young
boys and girlB, was held Tuesday
night at Hominy, when more than 700
attended the banquet that night. The
annual FFA show was staged in con-
nection with the big farmers occa-
sion, and many boys participated In
this program, exhibiting their calves,
sheep and hogs at the annual show.
A large delegation went down from
here, and all report the affair this
year was one of the best ever staged
by the Hominy business people.
Pawhuska’s dog catcher will soon
be on the job. so all who have dogs,
even though they be the commonest
cur or the finest bred "best friend of
man." should make arrangements to
have them vaccinated for rabies, and
pay the annual city tax of 25c per
year. This should be done Immediate-
ly, and you should put a collar on
"pooch", with his license number and
vaccine tag, so the dog catcher may
know your dog has been properly
cared for.
Antoine Burnett will be the dog
catcher this year, and will start work
next week.

■George Kernek, Mrs. L. M. Colville.
Mrs. Mabelle Kennedy. Mrs. H. L.
Puryear. Earl Collins, John R. Pear-
son and Jerome Zickrick are busily
engaged making plans for a member-
ship drive toward bringing to Paw-
huska this fall and winter, some very
desirable and outstanding entertain-
ment features. The drive is not pri-
marily a ticket selling proposition, but
a membership selling venture, which
will guarantee to this community
some of the nation’s most outstand-
ing personalities In the nature of mu-
sical numbers, lectures, and other
outstanding nationally known featur-
es.
Tbe membership in this association
will entitle the holders of tickets to
hear such entertainers as Jessica
Dragonette, famous opera star; Galla-
Rinl, outstanding accordionist; Wil-
liam B. Holmes, son of the noted tra-
veler and lecturer, who shows pictur-
es and lectures on his travels around
the world; Arty Van Den Berg, fa
mens dancer, and others just as fa-
mous. There will appear at the high
school auditorium eight of these num-
bers. However the other two of the
ten appear at Bartlesville only in
this area. These are Jessica Drag-
onnette and Atty Van Den Berg, and
your membership here and 50c addi-
tional will let you hear and see these
two famous artists. The cost to you
for the eight numbers here will be
but 13.50. and with the additional |1,
you will be privileged to hear the
other two numbers of the ten at
Bartlesville.
Those sponsoring the programs,
feel it is a real opportunity for Paw-
huxkans to have nationally known
artists appear locally. They are striv-
ing tor rs many memberships as pos-
sible. as the support the venture
receives this year will enhance our
opportunities of getting even greater
artists here next year and the years
to come.
The numbers will start September
16th at the high school auditorium,
and will be every four weeks until
the entire eight have been given.
If you happen to be out of town when
any number Is here, or are ill and
cannot attend, your ticket will be
good at any of the other towns on
the Circuit, such as Bartlesville. Sand
Springs and other places being book-
ed. Adult tickets are 93.50
dent tickets at 11.80.
The committee working
memberships will call upon
tween now and the 26th of this month
so be ready to tell them how many
tickets you will purchase for
support of this venture. Another
ture of the membership in this
ganization. is that you can pay as
go. The committee will explain
these details to you. if you desire to
do this.
It is an opportunity for Pawhus-
kans to really enjoy fine entertain-
ment at the very lowest prices ob-
tainable.
