AIDS IN CARNIVAL
One of the always outstanding fea
tures of the King Korn Karnivals of
the past five years, has been that of
the handling of the announcing of
the various programs. R. Foster Pat
terson, then principal of the high
school, was induced in 1932 to take
up this job and which with his usual
ability, and skill he put over In a
truly wonderful way. While he Is
how a resident of Tarkio, Missouri,
teaching in the college at that place,
he very generously accepted the in
vitation to again assist this year.
The acceptance made necessary his
driving back and forth during the
teaching week, holding his classes in
the morrfing and being here in the
afternoon and evening and his sacri
nee of this time certainly is appre
ciated by the residents of this sec
tion and particularly those Interest
ed in the success of the King Korn
Karnival.

Korn Karnival
Draws to Close
Amidst Rainfall
Final Day of Colorful Four Day Event
Is Disappointment, But Two
Schools Stage Parade.
Saturday, the final day of the King
Korn Karnival, was one that damp
ened the chances of making the day
one of glorious climax of the very
successful celebration and the steady
rainfall caused the abandonment of
all of the platform program and the
midway attractions remained closed
in the steady downpour of the entire
day.
The day was to have been featured
by the rural school parade and with
the rainfall that started early Sat
urday morning, this feature was
thought to have been abandoned.
The King Korn committee were
agreeably surprised in the afternoon
when two of the schools of the coun
ty arrived here with their floats, that
of district No. 64 of near Alvo of
which Miss Bernice Knabe 13 the
teacher and that of district No. 15 of
near Nehawka, of which Miss Velma
Fulton is the teacher. The floats
and the children and teacher were
given much commendation for their
fine spirit that was not daunted by
the rainfall.
The floats that appeared for the
parade were awarded cash prizes and
the teachers congratulations on the
fine showing that they had made.
The judges were Mrs. E. H. escott,
Freeman McFarland and Miss Anna
Peoples.
Miss Knabe has only two boys In
her school. In order to bring the
float she drove from Lincoln to Alvo
then by way of Omaha to Platts
mouth. Miss Fulton, brought her
group 22 miles. The1 floats were de
corated after they arrived. Since the
two rated so closely, equal prizes were
given to each.
Despite the fact that the weather
caused the postponement of the last
day's attractions, it is estimated that
there were some 14,000 present, the
greatest attendance being for the
opening evening ceremonies on Wed
nesday.
This year the golden wedding
guests made one of the outstanding
features fo the carnival.
