A Suggestion.

Suggestion.
Nh. EDIToR-At the meeting of
American citizens held last evening,
quite discussion arose as to having
ball Fourth of July evening, many
being opposed on account of not be-
ing able to go to Remond Grove and
get back in sufficient time to attend
ball in the evening, which brings
forth the following suggestion, viz,
Why not have the ball on the
evening of the Sd, thus enabling
those who want a ball to 20
as early as they wish, and if
not too tired next morning they
can take their family to Remond
Grove and enjoy the day at the pic
mic, baseball, tennis, boat rowing,
and more dancing, furthermore Civ
ing the ball committee a chance to
enjoy themselves, which is often not
the case when they have to work all
day on the Fourth decorating, etc.
This has been done many times
before, and why not have it on the
evening of the 3rd.
