The Pembina City band certainly
made good, and this year there could be
no kick registered on the quality or
quantity of music provided. And people
appreciated the efforts put forth by the
organization to please. The band not
only fulfilled its part of the contract to
letter but on Tuesday evening added
thereto by giving concert which was
greatly appreciated. Pembina certainly
has reason to be proud of its band.-In-

who crossed the line from Winnipeg on
Sunday on their way to Cincinnati.
They had very bad luck inst after leay-
ing Winnipeg recent rains having made
the roads so impossible that the auto
wouldn't move except with team of
horses to help. They were rather dis
couraged over the start but went on to
try their long trip ahead.
AT recent meeting of the Business
Mems Union of Drayton, a unmber Of
important matters were discussed. and
one OF great interest to that city and the
public generally in that part of the

1t is understood that the farmers on the
Minnesota side of the river are willing to
give financial aid and that an appro-
priation might be secured from the state
OF Minnesota. The matter will be
thoroughly canvassed.
