\IVNY FEATURES ARE ARRANGED FOR PICNIC DAY The Greencastle band and a famous colored jazz band of Indianapolis will entertain the Putnam county people at the farmers’ Greencastle Commercial Club picnic to be held Wednesday, August 20, in the Hnzelett grove onehalf ntile east of Greencastle And that isn’t all. Frank Cannon, who is j n charge of the entertainment of the Jay, annonuced Tuesday morning that a featre of the day uwill be a baby show in which all babies of Putnam county eighteen months or under should contest. Prizes will be awarded by competent judges as to the most beautiful baby, the sweetest baby and the best baby physically. So mothers bring your baby along and let him or her carry home a blue ribbon. Other entertaining features of the day will be a wheelbarrow polo contest in which the leans and the fats will participate. This event of the day will be most amusing, vs one of the fattest men of Greencastle stated this morning that he will enter the con•i st and then one of these tall, beanpole kind of human being- standing near said he would contest also. Who do you bet will win ? A tug of war between the “country jakes” and the “town ikes” will fol- ! we the polo contest. Mr. Cannon has promised the rope will be i good one and won’t break in the middle. Some

Greencastle young men who have heard of the coming contests have ordered ham and eggs for their future meals, so look out you country fellows. G. I. Christie, assistant secretary of agriculture, with his offices in Washington, D. C., has accepted the invitation of the Putnam County Farmers’ Association to speak here W—x ‘-'•w’eTTOm , ■ , - : I tne picnic grounds. This fact alene should draw thousands of people to the grounds for Mr. Christie is a man of national reputation and a speaker who deals with the present day quesoions with wonderful simplicity. During the day two airplanes from the Kokomo aviation field will be on the grounds and take the folks airgliding. That is, if the folks have the required SI per minute. Besides taking the people on pleasure trips, the aviators have promised to do some stunts for the crowd. Mr. Cannon has received stacks of letters inquiring as to whether certain organizations or parties may place commercial drink stands upon the grounds, so there is little doubt that the thirst of the crowd will be quenched. Other amusements “too numerou- to mention,” among which will be a merry-go-round, small tent shows and the customary oddity agents, will be there. The grounds will be electrically lighted and it was stated by those
