compelled, for want OF room in the
dining room, TO leave out a host OF
honored citizens who would have en-

easier for them TO raise the money TO
pay the expenses, than TO decide who
must be left out, and it is a matter Of

has more willing citizens and heavy
purses to back educational moves,
than i has chairs in the banquet
hall.

known parties, when they we're ready |
10 leave. =
