of Washington to hold its annual regatta on
the Potomac River August II and 49, 1t is
necessary to impress this fact on our people in
order to secure cooperation on their part to
make the regatta-a success. The regatta COM

and every liberal-minded citizen should see
that he gives something toward this creditable
object The president of the committee is Mr.
Alexander Grant, railway mail Office, post
office; treasurer, Mr.. Richard Pairo 4S6 Louisi-

post-office box. 1t is going to be the greatest
aquatic meeting ever held in this country, and
our people will have an opportunity of seeing
the greatest array of oarsmen ever brought to-
gether at one time. The regatta will be sure
to bring here at least ten thousand visitors,
and our business men will reap the benefit,
consequently they should give generously
toward the expenses of the regatta.
