Our Sheriff has purchased himself a Ford, and about the only;
trouble lie has with the thing is to stop it aiter he get* it started.

Remember the Chautauqua begins Sunday, the 5th of August |
and if you have not purchased your season tickets it is time,
you were doing so. The ticket committee reports that theyj
have already sold over two hundred. If you f^il to attend this
grand entertainment, you will miss the treat of your life. Don't
neglect to .secure that season ticket, and thereby save yourself
money and also help the local committee that is backing this
high class entertainment. You will never regret the 82.00.
