So much has been said concern ing the entrance charge info the Corn Show , Farmers' Institute , Carnival , and 'Fraternal Picnic to be held in Minnechaduza Park on September 6 , 7 , 8 , 9,1911 , that the committee in charge of the celebra tion desires to stare its reasons for advertising such a charge. As a ba = . sis to reason on the committee does not feel like inviting the general public to such a celebration with out providing for them some form of amusement. To give them ball games , smaller sports and other at tractions. ; to provide for them able orators to address them on topics of the dav , agriculture , stock-rais ing and fraternalism ; to prepare the park for such gatherings ; and to let the people know through the medium of advertising that the same is to be had ; all demand an outlay of money. The committee believes that the average individual would much rather come and con tribute bis small portion and get amusement in return , than to come without cost and to receive no amusement. Such gatherings are first and foremost organized and attended for ths sole purpose of supplying amusement and pleasure. Accordingly the proposition be fore the committee was'to adequate ly finance the picnic and carnival. The lodges participating had limi ted their donation to an amount that was insufficient to meet the expenditures for the reason that they could not afforJ to give more , their funds being short at this time of the year by reason of their being assessed the semi-annual per capita tax. This , however , excepting tbe Workman lodge which voted ample funds to pay its pro rata share pro viding the others could so afford. The next class to turn to were the business men but they had already offered § 250.00 lor prizes to be awarded at the Corn Sliovv and had , with the local lodges , in the past year invested $1500.00 in providing a suitable place for such gather ings ; such as erecting the dancing and speaking pavilion , clearing away - way under-brush , planting tame grasses , enclosing springs with con- arete , and in general care and maintenance. Therefore the one thing remain ing to enable the committee to fi nance this celebration and to pro vide suitable and proper forms of amusement for the people in at tendance was to fix a nominal charge for admission and in that way to make it the peoples affair , as is done at all county fairs , corn shows and carnivals. la this way the lodge member who stays at borne is not assessed for something that does him no good , for those that can attend and participate in the many forms of amusement are paying the bills. For instance if it were necessary for the lodges to iefray the entire expenses and in so doing to levy extra assessments on the various members then those members who could not come would be paying more money to protect their insurance in order to provide a good time for many people who are not lodge members and might never be. The committee realizes that some may misunderstand its motive in advertising a charge for the coming gathering and would gladly accept any other method to enable it to fi nance this gathering. However it is providing the farmers and stock- raisers with- the best and largest prizes ever offered in Cherry coun ty for their produce flnd stock ; it is securing orators with state-wide reputations to entertain the people ; it is furnishing sports of all kind for amusement ; it is giving you the finest and cleanest , and most up-to- date place in Western Nebraska for your gathering. And in order to pay its expenses it is asking adults and children over fifteen years of age to contribute only twenty-five cents. This amount seems so little that we believe that the great majority of the people will not complain. Committee. Notice. ya w-hom. it may concern ; rlns is to certify thai mv wife. Marie E.
