other dog belonging to Miss Catherine

As next Monday is town meeting day,
a portion of the issue of the Democrat
will be held until after the business OF

even beyond the usual limits. An en-
deavor will be made to get off the bulk
of the mails as usual, but a second edi-
ton for subscribers in Paris and Norway
will be made up after the close of the
meeting, and will have full report of
the proceedings.
Plans have been completed as pre-
viously announced in the Democrat for

and chaperoned by Miss Sue Rounds, the
