long time, The weather man, as

usual, was very kind and deliver-
ed the finest brand he had in. his
large stock. The day brought out
one of the: largest | crowds seen in
the district: fora long and inelud-
‘ed people from'up and down the
line with a food ‘sprinkling from |’
Smithers. The roads were in
good shape and many autos were
parked-around the ball grounds.
‘The sports program was very
good and was run-off without a

“lenjoyable time and were under
no retraint. They made some
money at the sports and they got
lots of extra eats and drinks as a
result. But they were no worse
than the adults - -who won races
and spent the money-for eats. -
