Immediately after the program at the auditorium, the crowd went to Main street where the games and contests, which were scheduled for Lehmans grove, were held. The Rev. Frank Ruf, of Fort Wayne, a former Berne man, was in charge of the contests, anrt he was ably assisted by H. R. Beitler, of Berne. They handled the crowd, estimated at one thousand people, with ease, and conducted the contests in a tine manner. Numerous contests of all kinds were held, and they all proved to be closely contested and exciting. The first contest to be held was a medicine ball contest, and it proved very amusing. A banana-eating contest for ladies was held, and the ladies proved to be adapt at that game. A button sewing contest for girls was held and the girls did some quick as well as fancy work. Other contests for the ladies were a baseball throw and a medicine ball contest. Some of the best contests of the afternoon, however, we're a 50-yard dash by school boys, and a rope puli ' i ing contest. Twelve boys started in • the race, and it proved very closely contestested. The winners in the race i were, Winston Baumgardner, first, and Harry Liecbty, second. The rope pulling contest was very exciting. Six men from the farm, were pitted against six business men from Berne. 1 The .farmers finally were victorious, but only after a stiff battle, as the business men firmly contested every inch of ground. A similar contest was held for boys, but the city boys proved easy winners in this contest. : Another contest was a stepping con- > test for young men. The men had • to walk a distance of about 60 feet,' p f and the one who could walk the dis- ' tance'in the least number of steps was , the winner. Roy Price, the Adims county cow tester and another young fellow were tied for first, but the contest was stepped off by these two, g and the tie was broken, when the young man from Berne, beat Price by 1 one step. Price had walked the dis- ,! tance in 18 steps while the other man 1 had walked it in 17. Other contests were a kangaroo race, and a baseball .- game late in the evening between two ; Berne teams. Prizes were awarded - to the winners in nearly every con- ' test. I Otto Smith, the aviator was also ! on hand with an airplane during the I latter part of the day, and gave many ' passenger flights. He also repeatedly thrilled the crowd with tail spins and other stunts. Although some of the contests could not be held, and rain spoiled the grove celebration, the day as a whole was a success, and no accidents ot importance happened to mar the day. 0 GOSHEN— Elks home at Goshen wil be remodelled, at an approximate cost of $25,000.
