AT THE CITY FARM.
It's a Busy Summer with the Boys and
Girls-A Flag Raising.

The farmers of De Witt Clinton Park held a,
mass meeting yesterday afternoon to arrange ION
their flag raising, which will take place on
August i at O'Clock in the afternoon. They had
10 meet sections, as their little pavilion would
not accommodate them all, and the voice Of the
farmer in chief. Henry H. Persons, would not
carry far enough to address them all at once, but
this did not detraCt from the enthusiasm OF the
occasion or the seriousness Of the deliberations
The boys decided that they would all wear their
overalls on the evenutul occasion. and the girls
suggested white aprons for themselves. Then one
of the boys expressed the opinion that the aprons
would look incest over red dresses and it was ac-
cordingly decided that every girl who had red
dress should wear it.
AS to the programme it was unanimously and
vociferously voted that it should take the form
OF u concert. with speeches. The boys ana
girls. although they have refused 10 sing on
previous occasions promised that they would prac-
tise some choruses for flag raising day, and would
also learn to give three cheers, thing which they
have heretofore been found incapable OF doing
They start off bravely enough with articulate
hurrah but it Immediately degenerates into a
blood-curdung yell which Is continued until the
breath of the shouters IS exhausted
The management of the festivities viii be LETT
