all they have no kick to make. The
citizens Of Martinsburg if they keep
their eyes open will observe that the
above amount will be used in the
employment of an instructor and
that when spring opens the usual
open air concerts will be given in
the square. The band wishes to re-
turn thanks to all who, in any man.
