for a fitting celebration on the occas-

other evidence OF Its value to the city.

citizens. will quite likely result In
making the picnic an annual event,
The board by cooperating with the
shopmen. the fire departments and
other organizations has ensured the
doing Of everything possible to make
the day a notable one.
While the board Is supported cheer
fully by the great majority OF pro-
gressive business men on both sides
Of the river. there are a number who
have allowed their dues to lapse and
who gave at best but half.hearted sup
port. This should not be. The board
has been identified with everything
that has had for Its object the up
building Of the city. It has accomp
lished much. With the united sup
