1t was thought that the idea of
having street parades had beelr

1t is believed that the masses
of the people are opposed to stree
parades, and the BEE is of opinion
that those who have coniribu ed
TO this expensive demonstration
have become disgusted and will
refuse to do so this year,
Indeed, 1t is a great deal better
if street parades were turned iuto

collected be donated to the home

The manner In which money is
collected to carry on these street
