REPORT ON THE
OLD SETTLERS REUNION
Many years ago through the un-
tiring efforts of Mr. J. M. Hunter,
of loving memory, began the
ground work for an Annual Cele-
bration, what was then called The
Old Settlers Reunion. This was
before the advent of many cars
in our vicinity. The people of the
ehtire county gathered at Mans-
field Park which site was donated
by the late Ed Mansfield for this
celebration. The entire grounds
were dotted with wagons, buggies,
hacks and a few in automobiles,
many arriving on the night before
the celebration so they would be
ready to greet their friends who
came from miles around. This
was an annual gathering and
everyone looked forward to the
next years celebration so that they
could meet their loved ones and
again have a chat with their old
friends.
It was necessary that someone
would provide the barbecue din-
ner, furnish the entertainment for
a full day’s outing and in this Mr.
Hunter was assisted by St. Stan-
islaus Parish. They provided the
barbecue and with the assistance
of Ed Mansfield, who drove in his
entire herd of cattle, a local rop-
ing was the main event of enter-
tainment. This was so successful
that from this rodeo were pro-
duced the finest ropers in this
State. It was here where Toots
Mansfield started his roping and
we need not dwell on his success
as his fame is a national one.
Others can be cited but space will
not permit going into this report
as well as all of us are living
witnesses to the correctness of
this statement.
With the continuance of this
celebration the Catholics have a
beautiful Parochial School and
for many years the proceeds were
sufficient to defray the expenses
of conducting the parochial school.
It was not only the Catholics who
took part in the work, but Protest-
ants of all faiths could be called
on for donations as they felt they
had a good chance to meet with
their friends and enjoy a full day
of wholesome entertainment. In
all of these celebrations there
never was an arrest made as well
as on the first occasion that beer
could be sold, there were four
hundred cases disposed of and as
one of those in attendance ex-
pressed himself was that they
took to the beer like flies after
honey and he meant that it aided
in the social part of the entertain-
ment as they were not intoxicat-
ed to such a degree that they
needed to be arrested.
I do not know why the celebra-
tion was discontinued unless it
was that same could be improved
upon. I do feel that some mode
of an annual affair may result in
the future that will be a credit
to our town. It must be along
clean lines and wholesome enter-
tainment, must be provided so
that the young and old can enjoy
themselves and be glad that they
visited our town and in this man-
ner they will avoid being arrested,
which is always a distasteful duty
of our enforcement officers. I
may have suggestions to offer in
the way of an Annuel Celebration,
but prefer keeping same to my-
self as it would doubtless not be
acceptable but felt the above ex-
planation was in order so the
Old Settlers Reunion would not
be considered a part of the present
mode of annual entertainments.

Truthfully, now, did you give any thought to
safety when you decided upon your present
heating system? Not many of us do.
Flameless electricity is the safest way to heat
. . . it’s also the cleanest. There are no by*,
products such as fumes, odors and soot
Economy is another important factor not to
be overlooked. Electricity uses 100% of its
energy to produce heat. There are no costly
maintenance calls to clean and repair nozzles,
fuel lines and other furnace parts.
