The opening day at Jenner’s Park last Thursday, June 10th, proved a : very successful affair, though the day j opening gloomy and cloudy kept large numbers from attending for fear of rain. However, the day was ideal for comfort, keeping Old Sol shaded from view and making the day on the grounds most comfortable. The Ashton cornet band, and by the way a very good one, rendered acceptable music, the amusements and games in full blast and the large crowd in gala attire and happiest mood. The most notable event of the nay in the amusement line, was the basket ball game between Loup City high school team and Litchfield lassies.which was won by the former by a score of 43 to 7.

Ofchei amusements, appropriate to the da.', were pulled off. pleasing to the crowd. The pavilion was crowded witli the lovers of the dance, who made merry till long past the hour of midnight.
