day they will be assisted by societies Of
their own religious people from various
towns in this and other counties.
We further learn that town societies and
visiting societes will be preceded by bands
of music and drum corps.
We believe the coming of such a large
number as is expected, of ban is of music
and drum corps, will certainly interfere
with the religious worship Of the other
church congregations of the borough.
We, therefore, protest against the Dor.
ough authorities allowing tn influx ofI
contemplated bands of music and drum
corps on that day and we respectfully sug-
gest that he Borough Council order and
direct the Chief Burgess to notify the
Lithuanian church authorities here that
visiting bands of music and drum corps
will not be permitted TO play music on the
public streets on the SaUbath b, thus desecrat-
ing the holy Sabbath and annoying and
disturbing other religious societies of the
borough.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
