I



""Daniel Boone Day," will give all of us the
opportunity of paying tribute to the Ken-
tucky pioneer, reviewing the State's earliest
history, the trials and privations of its men
and women in the eighteenth century, the
fights led by Gen. George Rogers Clark,
Kentuckians at the River Raisin, etc., etc.
It has been suggested that the day be spent in
the parks, and that following the oratory there
be given old-fashioned games, in which prizes
will be awarded; sewing bees, apple parings,
corn huskings, the day concluding with the
Virginia Reel," on a platform (inside a stock-
ade) built to hold a thousand couples. Shocks
of corn and barrels of apples will be arranged
for this winter to be used in the husking and
paring. The committee will pay special recog-
nition on this day to all the living kindred of
Boone who attend the festivities. A hand-
some medal will be given the person present
who can prove the closest relationship to the
great pioneer.



                                    Kentucky
                            Daughter of the East.
                            Mother of the West;
                            Link that binds North and South.
