The Dauphin Herald weekly Thursday edition from Sorrows Ave Osughin lists subscription at $2.20 a year in advance or $2.50? not paid. Advertising rates available on application.
The issue criticizes provincial protective laws for stocks as ineffective due to lack of enforcement and federal gaps. It urges clear jurisdiction and shared fees, while praising local efforts to improve public safety at fairs and roads. It also covers pulpwood rights disputes with Seaman Backus and Winnipeg development pressures.
Citizens urge active support for the Dauphin Horticultural Society to boost civic pride and draw visitors. The 1925 Garden Show aims to be the town’s best yet, with a call for every resident to join and help promote Dauphin as a beautiful western town.
A visitor to Dauphin Manitoba writes July 31 1925 to The Herald praising the town as a delightful picnic spot. He describes a model nearby farm owned by Mr French with a palatial home and well kept out-buildings and grounds, and notes the orderly Elks Parade and courteous traffic without police enforcement.
The Elks Carnival at Dauphin featured events from wheelbarrow races to three legged relays with top finishes by J Craig and F Malcolm. Amateur horse racing and a Char iot race topped by Tom Playford and Archis Hoy drew crowd cheers, while tug of war between Elks and CNR showed tight competition. Gate receipts surpassed last year as a thousand more attended. Midway attractions by Pat Mulligan were popular and the full Elks band plus a Bagpipe Band energized a day of Elk spirit.
