The pleasure seekers had a chance on the merry-go-round or fern's wheel and other contraptions. There were many remarks heard because everything was a dime and where there are several children in the family it soon took dollars if their wishes were granted.

Saturday was almost a duplication of the day before, but much more windy. One of the largest crowds in years was on the streets Saturday night and all seemed to be getting what they came for. Lemonade, pop, ice cream and other cooling refreshment were in great demand and those running the stands were kept busy. The business firms report good trade. Some, of course, had bigger business than others.

Growing Famous for Fishing 8 8 on30red the ca 5 ad given a One thing is most certain, however, that much of the loose change of the neighborhood had gone with the Hawarden gravel pits are becoming iamous. They have been good places to fish this spring and the fish are of the gamy kind. It seems there-is considerable dispute and disagreement as to who has jurisdiction, and the question Is whether the state and its wardens teave control and whether any game laws of the state have effect.

Considerable fishing has been done and many of the fish taken have been undersized. Some good sized fish have been caught. Gilbert Lindenman caught a large mouthed bass weighing exactly 3 pounds one day last week and reports have come of larger ones being caught. It is a shame that so many of the undersized are beting taken as in a short apace of years these would grow into real gamy fish. Reports are current that game wardens have decided that they have jurisdiction and that game laws are in effect and those who dispute the fact and ignore warnings are being shown.

However, what is written here does not apply only to the pits, but every place where fish abound there are those who ignore laws and show poor sportsmanship, think little vhat effect their actions have on the iiture-supply. METHODIST CHURCH NOTES Rev. C. McNulty, A. B.

Total admitted company furnishing attractions and it's up to each reader to figure out the good it did to the community. One of the big attractions Friday evening was the appearance of the Lennox, S. Booster Club in their unusual garb.

They made quite a hit while advertising their celebration of this week. Among them was Ernest Everett, a former Ireton boy, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. E.

Everett. Mr. Everett was a barber in Ireton for years and Ernest lived here until 13 years of age but for the last 30 years he has been at Lennox. He had his wife and family with him. of the greater sidelights of the two days were the ball games Friday afternoon.

The Junior League baseball team played the Mann Sporting Goods Junior team of Sioux City. This team is one of the fastest and best in this part of the state. The game proved to be a thriller and the Ireton lads were a determined bunch. Both teams garnered goose eggs in the first inning. However, in the second the visitors put one run across while Ireton added another goose egg.

The third was scoreless for both teams. In the fourth: the visitors add.ed another zero but Ireton got busy in their half with their big Berthas and ran three 4 tallies across. The fifth inning was scoreless for 'both teams. It was in the sixth that the visitors evened up the score but Ireton came back in their half and put another tally to their record. It was in this part of the game that a foul ball hit the umpire in the neck and stopped the game for a few minutes but he was able to resume the game.

In the seventh inning, which was to have been the last, things happened. The visitors put 5 men across the plate, making the score 8 to 4 only to have Ireton come back in their half with 4 to tie the score. In the eighth the visitors put a man across and although Ireton threatened in their half they did not get further than 3rd base before the third out. Errors play-' ed a part in the scoring. The visitors got 13 hits off Bowden while Ireton got 8 hits.

In the error line Mann's had 4 against them and Ireton 3. It was a great game and although the heat kept many away those who went were well repaid. In the evening the Ireton girl's kit- tenball team lost to the Akron girls' team by a small score in a well played game. Saturday afternoon a baseball team from Hudson defeated a team from Ireton.

According to Miss Huisenfeldt, work is being concentrated upon persons who have had known, intimate contact with a case of tuberculosis, as shown by tuberculosis cases and deaths repented to the State Department of Health. Examinations will be made available to all persons in this classification for whom they are requested by the family physician. "The object of these examinations," Miss Huisenfeldt states, "is to check the condition of these persons to make sure that tuberculosis is not endangering them. Since the disease ordinarily fails to show its presence by marked symptoms until an advanced stage is reached, it is necessary for the patient to to the doctor for examination before serious ill health forces him to do so." Tuberculin formed offices, Miss "Well, I'll get my two weeks the end of August this year," announced Joo Ferguson to Fanny as he arrived home from work one afternoon. Fanny looked up from her string beana, "What would you like to do with your vacation this year, Joe?" "Seems to me there are quite a few things to be considered, Fanny.

We could have a real educational trip with the in one of the fairs maybe, and a park or two and some historical monuments, or wo could all pack off to some quiet little piece of back country and really rough it for a while, while I get some fishing in," added a bit wistfully, "or wo could send Joey, Doris, and Ted off to camp and celebrate with a bit of private vacationing by ourselves." Fanny pondered, "I think we really ought to have some change and fun together as a family, Joe, but front what Dr. Fulton said the other day I guess he thinks that families deserve a vacation from one another sometimes too. He says there's nothing like a good summer camp or combination camp and farm experience to help children develop some healthy new slants on life. He told me a few stories if how several children he knew really Jecame almost new persons with the new social climate of a good summer camp. One of the children had always been messy around the house, never picked things up for himself and always shirked his chores; but having to be responsible with the other boys for keeping a cabin clean, and being responsible for his bit in keeping camp life running smoothly gave him a new slant at home too." Joe grinned, "And you thought of all the hours we've spent trying to get Joey to be a Fanny smiled ruefully, "Yes, and he said some other things that umde me think of Ted and Doris, too.

Do you think maybe they would all like to go to camp during July, and then we could have our little trip together afterwards." "I'm going to talk to Jim Fulton about this camp business," replied Joe, "I'll see him tomorrow." Seal Sale Exceeds $100,000 Sioux county residents bought $637.43 worth of Christmas Seals in 1938, a report by the Iowa Tuberculosis Association shows. The state sale, according to the report, totaled $102,000, a gain of 4 percent over the preceding year when the total was $98,068.72. The average per capita purchase in Iowa was 4 cents, and 2.4 cents in Sioux county. These figures include all sums repoi-ted on June 17.

"As these and related measures are prosecuted intensively in the future, there should be further marked reductions in the annual toll of sickness and death exacted by tuberculosis. Iowa already is in a favorable situation among the states in its control of this disease. If the gains which have been made can be added to, we should be able to maintain and perhaps improve our present position." If you dont take The Independent you dont get the.
