receive the guests who availed themselves
OF the first day of the week OF contem-
plated festivities. Every thing was topsy-
turvey Saturday, but today everything Is
in ship shape. And that leads me
to remark how combination OF
forces bent on one given
object makes it apparent that something
out OF the ordinary is about TO take place

public pulse regarding the business pros

last year but judge from conversation
had with those who were.

chant told me that last year things looked
so bad that no one representing that in

fidence on their abilities to make profit
on the week.

fair in the daytime would save the spend
ing OF the extra quarter for the fireworks
in the evening by remaining until the
lights were put out at night, and patron
iZe the restaurant aforesaid during their
stay.
