of color and almost the same can he said
of First and Second South streets for a
block east and west of Main. The red.
yellow and sage green float from every
telephone pole and long lines of stream
ers extend from one side of the street
to the other. Everywhere the Jubilee
colors are mingled with the red. white
and blue and the street presents the
appearance Cf fairy scene. In regard
to the decorations of the buildings there
is hardly a building in the business sec
ton of the city which does not show
some color and many of the designs are
unique and elaborate All day yester-
day persons VINO had not already deco
rated their stores and buildings We're
engaged in the work of putting the
bunting in place and ii would be diff
cult TO estimate the number of yards
of material that have been used.
Among the most striking decorations
are those at the z. c. NJ. l. building.

enormous shield occupies a central po-
sition on the front of the building and
it is surrounded by flags and sur
mounted by a star and at night 100
irlcandescent lights glisten from the
designs. In the center OF the shield is
d mammoth yellow bee hive and under
meath is the motto Live and Help to
Live" Among the other most notable
