CARNIVAL IS
GREAT SUCCESS
Moose Hull Crowded. Afternoon and
j Evening—Many Attractions well
Patronized—Financial Success
Tiie big carnival given by the mem
bers of the Ladies Aid was a decided
success both financially and socially.
During the afternoon and evening the
| various booths were crowded witli
i people striving to get rid of their
1 loose change, a performance very sat
i isfactory 'to the women, who have
i worked hard and patiently for months
j and were well rewarded for their ef
forts yesterday. The hall was ablaze
with the national colors, every booth
having numberless flags and stream
ers. The Japanese Booth was the pret
tiest with its streamers and hangings
of orange and black. Japanese lan
terns swung from the ceiling, cast
ing their soft light over two tables
where tea, ice cream and wafers were
sold. The chinaware was beautiful.
Many flowers and ferns also graced
this booth at the entrance of which
stood a large palm. Mrs. T. O. Bell
and Miss Pearl Miller, costumed as
Japanese ladies served refreshments
while little Miss Eda Patterson and
Elizabeth Bell were Japanese dolls.
Fans were also sold here.
It was but a short step from the
Japanese booth to the flower and
candy booth over which Mrs. H. R.
Miller and Miss Jessie Jepson presid
ed. As usual the balloons were sold
out early in the evening. The potted
plants were rapidly taken and the
home made candies, fancy caps, and
other novelties sold rapidly also. One*
of the greatest attractions of this
booth was a canary who fairly cover
ed himself with glory by his singing.
Many a twenty-five cent piece was
passed over to Mr. Jenner for the
privelege of swatting the kaiser at
that booth. Several future ball play
ers lost considerable time and money
practicing at this booth which was
the most popular during the evening,
its only rival being the Living Doll
Show. Mr. McOilvray made the kaiser
and displayed much artistic ability in
the finished product.
At the art booth were many beau
tiful pieces of fancy work, knitting
bags, curios from the westward,
aprons and other useful articles for
the housewife. Mrs. Hoyt and Mrs.
Date proved very able saleswomen,
selling the majority of their wares
before the evening was very far ad
vanced.
The Living Doll Show was the main |
feature of the evening. The people :
came in crowds to see these wonders. |
In front of the side show the little i
colored doll demonstrated some of the :
marvelous powers the dolls, posses-!
sed. in a manner that did credit to j
her and her demonstrator, Mr. H. B. j
Nelson. The dolls were Lois Keesler, j
and Vera Furrow, as colonial dolls, i
Hath Miller, cowboy doll, Viola Fur
row, graceful doll, Mayme McGilvray.
baby doll, and Clarice Crawford, col
ored doll. Mrs. W. N. Cuddy was the
ticket seller and door keeper at the
doll house.
Gypsy Lee, the renowned fortune
teller, was more than popular. Many
a lovelorn lad and lassie and many of
the adults, not satisfied with living
in the present went to her to find out
what Joys and sorrows, (mostly the
joys,) the future held for them. All
emerged from the booth with -iaces
expressing their awe at the wonder
ful powers of Gypsy Lee, who was
ably portrayed by R. H. L. Noaks.
Ring toss, the game where “you
never fall to win something,” tho It
was generally a pencil proved a win
ning card. Six throws for a quarter
and a bag of candy for every lucky
shot. There was not much candy lost.x
Mr. H. B. Nelson had charge of the
booth.
Dinner was served at the Sour
doug Roadhouse afternoon and even
ing. The roadhouse was formed by a
huge flag being draped across the mid
rle of the hall and the lower section
had three long tables spread. During
the evening these tables were filled
several times, the beans and brown
bread being sold out before the peo
ple were satisfied. Beans, brown

Drive Germany’s Silent Allies from America
MAKE SURE THEY CAN’T ENTER YOUR HOME.
Waste and Extravagance are Germany’s Silent Allies.
They will help the Kaiser. They will kill American soldiers.
Every bit of waste, every extravagance takes force from
the power America must put into the war to win. Every penny
spent for luxuries and unnecessary things is a penny lost to
the production and purchase of goods, clothing, supplies, ships
and munitions for our soldiers.
As long as we spend wastefully, Germany will receive si
lent but powerful help from America; just so much farther
away is the Day of Peace.
Don’t spend thoughtlessly or unnecessarily. Save! With
high wages and plenty of work for everyone there never was
such an opportunity to help yourself and help your country.
Save to help the Government. Lend your savings to your
Country—
BUY WAR SAVINGS STAMPS
and drive out the enemy’s silent allies. Put your dimes and
quarters, as well as your dollars, at work.
Every man, woman and child can buy these Stamps

ings Stamps and watch your savings grow. They are a profit
able, simple and secure investment. You’ll never find a better
road to Prosperity.
