Day
Outstanding for
Its Fine Parade
Cleverly Arranged Floats and a Great
Display of Horses Mark the
Glamorous Offering.
The farmers of the community who,
had taken over the Thursday features
of the King Korn Karnival were
there and over in their program and
the great parade that extended al
most two miles along the streets of
the city.
The farmers naa promised that
they would set a high mark to shoot
at In their parade and more than
made good in the part that they play
ed in the festivities.
The program opened shortly after
1 o'clock when the Mynard Warb
lers, Ray Cook. Charles and Edward
Howard and Dick Livingston gave
several numbers to open the exercises
of the day. Mrs. Roy O. Cole served
as accompanist.
Mary Lou Warner, small daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Warner, of
near this city was presented in a
group of the popular numbers that
were much enjoyed by all of the aud
ience and reflected the greatest credit
on this little lady. j
Farmers
Vera Rewalt, of Avoca, gave two of trained horses was given. Dr. Floyd
saxophone numbers that gave thejFlynn of Omaha, having brought his
artist ample opportunity for the dis-i highly trained riding horse here who
play of his talents on this instrument.
Raymond Cook, always a favorite
with local audiences, presented sev
eral solo numbers with his usual
charm, the accompaniment being giv
en by Mrs. R. O. Cole.
The Parade
As the hour for the annual farm
ers day parade arrived, the streets
w ere filled with spectators to await j
the coming of that gorgeous display!
of color and horseflesh that had been
arranged by the hustling committee
of the farmers.
The parade was headed by Charles
Barnard and the marshals, mounted
on fine spirited horses, the marshals
wearing the wide rimmed western
hats, colored handkerchiefs and
carrying American flags.
The American Legion drum and
bugle corps led the first section of
the parade and set a snappy march
ing cadence for the parader3 that
followed.
The floats that were used in the
parade showed great originality and
skill In their preparation and brought
much applause as they moved over
the streets.
The Rock Bluffs Flower club had a
clever and well arranged float with
the colored cotton pickers as the
theme of the float.
One of the clever designs was that
of "Winter Time" in which the men
and women were garbed in old time
costumes, the men gathering about
the kitchen stove popping corn while
the women were busy at their quilt
ing. "In the Shade of the Old Apple
Tree" w as another of the cleverly ar
ranged floats which showed the moth
er industriously laboring in the gar
den while the youth and maiden were
busily engaged in their love making.
"Butchering Time" also gave a
very realistic touch to the fact that
the season for this occupation will
soon be here, the members of the
party on the float being engaged in
the tasks that butchering day brings
to the farm. Real welners distributed
along the line of march also added to
the realistic features of the float.
"Peach Time" was another of the
cleverly arranged and decorated
floats that won much appreciation
from the crowds.
The "Sattler & Blotzer" ranch float
also added a touch of the old west to
the parade.
Tom Grosshans of La Platte with
his "White Mule" float added to the
fun of the parade and was a clever
and well presented feature.
The Cole Brothers with their sorg
hum display and float made another
of the attractive features of the
parade.
There was every variety of farm
Implements shown in the parade, some
horse drawn and others with the mod
ern and up to date tractors being
used as the motive power. This was
a great display of the farming fa
cilities of the county and the up to
the minute methods used by the farm
ers in producing their crops.
The live stock Bectlon of the par-
ade was one of the largest that has
been seen and embraced some ninety-
five of the finest horseflesh that car;
be found in any section of the coun
try. Beautiful Percheons rrom the El
bert Wiles farm made a magnificent
showing of these purebred animals
that wen the admiration cf all of the
many hundreds to witness the par
ade. The riding horses were perhaps the
finest that nave been seen here and
with the experienced riders, both
ladies and gentlemen, presented a
sight that is not often to be seen as
the high - stepping thoroughbreds
paraded.
Adding to the fun and frolic of the
parade was the force of clowns in
many and varied costumes that
brought laughter and fun along the
line of march and their pranks with
the onlookers brought much enjoy
ment. The Avoca concert banc under the
leadership of Will B. Green, of Lin
coln was heading the second section
of the parade and their snappy music
added to the interest as the great
parade swung down the main street
of the city.
Following the parade their w as an
exhibition of the gaited horses given
at the Athletic park and which drew
out a large number of those interest
ed in the fine high stepping animals.
On Main street a special exhibition
gave a delightful showing on intelli
gence and training under the direc
tion of his master, while the horse
of George Christianson oT Eenning
ton, also pleased the spectators by
the exhibition of cleverness.
Afternoon and Evening Program.
Following the parade and horse
show the program at the platform
was resumed with the harmonica and
Jews harp numbers by Clifford Sut
ton that were finely presented and
the Cisney Revelers of Nehawka who
added their part to the pleasant fea
tures of the afternoon. Miss Evelyn
Iske of La Platte was also presented
in vocal selections on the afternoon
portion of the program.
The evening brought to the pro
gram a musical organization from
the south portion of the county, Phil
Rihn and his orchestra of Union be
ing presented in a very fine and well
selected program of numbers.
The Rube singers of Mynard with
their many clever antics added to the
night program and drew a great
round of applause for their entertain
ing stunts.
Ray Herold and Glen Puis also as
sisted in the evening program with
several songs and instrumental num
bers that added to the program and
were given in the usual entertaining
style of these two clever musicians.
The Wagner sisters of Weeping
Water were also featured on the
evening program with their vocal and
Instrumental selections. These young
ladies are popular entertainers and
their selections were very much en
Joyed by all.
The Avoca band was presented in
concert as the closing feature of the
program and under the skillful direc
tion of Mr. Green gave an hour of
the best band music that has been
heard here. The program was varied
and too much cannot be said of the
fine manner in which these musicians
presented their part of the King Korn
program. The local people are very
appreciative of the visit of the Avoca
band and their generous assistance
in the parade and program that help
ed make Thursday an outstanding
day of the fall festival.
The evening was closed with the
old time dances at the platform, Earl
Lancaster and his orchestra furnish
ing the music and the calling by Pat
Campbell and Ed Kohrell to aid in
making the dances snappy and full of
pep.
The awards of the parade were an
nounced at the platform, first prize to
the Rock Bluffs Flower club, second
to "Winter Time," third to "Apple
Blossoms" and fourth to "Butcher
ing Time" and fifth to "Peach Time."

NOT TO LEAVE CHARGE
From Friday's Dally
Rev. H. E. McKelvey, pastor of the
Mynard U. B. church, was among the
attendants at the parades this week
and in conversation gave the good
news that he and Mrs. McKelvey are
to remain In the charge in which
they have proven so successful. The
district superintendent of the church
has rescinded the change made at the
recent conference at York and Rev.
McKelvey is again assigned to the
charge instead of at Pickrell.
This will be most pleasing to all
of the residents of this section of the
county, where Rev. McKelvey has
been such an active figure.

Mrs. A. D. Asch, who has at her
home, "Villa Asch," a grapevine that
was planted seventy-five years ago by
Ler forebears, brought to the Journal

ceased bearing in all cf the years of
its existence and today supplies a
wonderful return in the lucious fruit.
We wish to express our appreciation
to Mrs. Asch for her remembrance.

TOO MUCH SPEED
From Thursday's Daily
Thi3 morning at 12:30 there was
considerable excitement created in
the vicinity of the Heisel mill when
a truck load of cattle was overturn
ed near that location. James New
man, of Glenwood, driving a J. C.
truck with fourteen head of cattle
was en route from the stock yards
at South Omaha to his home and as
he came from Webster boulevard the
speed was so great that he failed to
make the turn properly and the truck
overturned but was not damaged or
the driver injured. The cattle in the
truck, however, made their escape
and are still at large In the north
part of the city to await the arrival
of the trucker and assistants for the
roundup.

The Parade
The largest parade that has been
staged by the merchants of the city
was the big feature of the Friday
afternoon program and there was
hardly a business house of the city
that was not represented in the Ions
line that stretched from the Masonic
Home to the lower end of Main street
as the line of march swung on its
way. The floats showed a great deal
of originality and the cars that were
ated for the occasion. The parade
was headed by the mayor and mem
bers of the city council and other of
ficials in cars who joined the parade
a3 it formed on west Elm street.
The Peru Training school band
fell in march near Sixth and Vine ( their school associates who were en

livened the occasion with selections

all of the large audience.
A real musical treat was afforded
in the appearance of Lloyd Laurit-
sen, of Weeping Water, who gave cor-
l
net solos and this young man dem
I onstrated that he is a real artist in
every sense of the word.
The Peru Training school band
was the finishing part of the night
program at the conclusion of the
public wedding ceremony. This band
of forty-eight pieces was under the
direction of Sanford Clements, for
mer Elmwood young man, and was
without a doubt one of the best bands
that has been heard in this city. The
program was one well selected and
given with brilliance by the young
people, truly a fitting close of the
greatest day of the fall festival.
The Wedding
The public wedding arranged for
the Friday evening feature of the

and the committee in charge had pro
vided a handsome and dignified set
ting for the ceremony which was wit
nessed by the thousands gathered
along the street in a deep silence and
reverence.
The platform where the ceremony
was to take place had been arranged
with the beautiful flowers to make a
fitting setting for the marriage ser

as the flower girl.
Then came the maids of honor,
