FOURTH IS TO
BE CELEBRATED
Meeting Called by Mayor Ar.
ranges for Celebration.
Program Committee Meet To.

A meeting of all the business men
of the city was called Monday night
for the purpose of arranging for
Fourth OF July celebration. Mayor
Nash called the meeting, which was
held in the old Centralia city hall on
the west side. Not all the business
men invited were able to attend the
meeting, but enough were there to
well represent the city.
After the meeting was called to
order, committees were appointed to
make all arrangements. One commit
tee Of five was named to arrange the
program for the day, and another was
named to act as purchasing and
soliciting committee. Those who
were to Tx up program, were MeSSrs.
George Rowland, Mike Slattery, L.
NJ. Nash, w. A. Drumb, and P. Fl.
Davis, They meet tonight, Tuesday,
and will arrange the order of happen
ings for the day.
Although nothing definite can be
said at this time as to the events that
will make up the days festivities,
they will probably contain a street
parade in the forenoon, speaking in
the afternoon, and games and perhaps
trap shooting. While no particular
person is suggested for speaker of the
day, District Attorney Theodore
Brazeau, Senator Wipperman, Senator
Hatten, from New London, and
Senator Frear are named as men
whom an effort may possibly be made
to secure for speakers, There seems
to be some doubt among committee
members as to whether an effort will
be made to have fire works
in the evening or not, To have a real
good pyrOtecnical display requires the
outlay Of good deal Of money, and
for this reason there may be DO fire.
works on the program.
Although it is little late to begin
preparations for a Fourth of July
celebration, still If the matter is
pushed as the indications show it is
going to be, there is no reason why
good program cannot be carried out in
a satisfactory manner. Every one ia
the city who wishes to be considered
a patriotic citizen should pitch in and
help to make the festivities the same
as they used to be in the Olden days.
Whether there is great deal of money
in it for each individual or not, it
cannot help but bring people into the
city with whom every merchant can
become acquainted, and lay the
foundation for future business with
them. So instead of knocking this
honest effort to properly celebrate the
day that stands above all others with
true Americans, let US each do what
he can to make the effort successful.
More then 5000 was pledged at the
meeting and more is as sure as though
it were pledged, so.there is no question
but that there will be good program.

We had the pleasure of reading a
copy of a pamphlet issued at Grafton
hall. Fond du Lac, Wis, by the
students in that institution, and
called their "Alma Mater" It
consists of q pages and cover,
illustrated with handsome cuts and
etchings. In the commencement
number we noticed that Miss Ellen
NJ. MacKinnon of this city was editor
in-chief and contributed several
articles to the publication which are
very creditable. The experience the
young ladies receive in the publ
cation of such number is educating
in itself and gives them practical
experience not obtained in any other
way.

The Postmaster in this city is re-
ceiving large number of applications

informed of this fact he will give
public notice of it.

Much to their embarrassment, friends
OF Miss Laura Fritz and Henry
Getzlaff met them upon their return
from Green Bay Sunday night, with a
shower of rice, giving the uninitiated
the idea that it was newly married
couple arriving instead of friends who
had been on pleasure trip for the
day. The loud congratulations" of
the friends helped make the situation
more embarrassing for the victims of
the Joke.

Many of the stores in the city are
beginning to display Fourth of July
goods in their windows. Many
attractive designs wrought from fire
crackers, flags, and fire works are
beginning to appear. The Fourth is
two weeks from today, Tuesday, and
the trade in articles used to help
celebrate that day has already begun.
The fact that this is the last year
that one can use cannon crackers
will tend to increase the sale of them
this year.

across sidewalks, lawns, and cross lots,
and finally fell at Gett's rner,
throwing Warren out. He was
bruised considerably, the horse WIS
injured, and the. thills of the milk
wagon broken. Tie milk was
spilled along the route taken by the
