HOUSING DEMONSTRATION DESIRED

HOUSING DEMONSTRATE aN DESIRED
 Somewhat earlier than we expected
 the Dean Factory will be in condition
 to have the .House Warming pro posed senle time ago, and for which preparations have been going on for
 some time and are now about comple.
 ted. The program will be somew hat
 as follows:
 Reception of citixens--ladies and gentlemen-by committee and proprie- tor
 Address from speaker from out of town.
 Inspection of Factory under Agent
 ef the manufacturers of machinery. Social hour.
 Music by the American Hand during the visit.
 Let 1t be understood, that the plan
 and purpose Is to have the citiscns of Putnam gather st the Dean Factory,
 informally, as an expression of their cordial welcome to the proprietor as . resident in their midst, and to his work people, and all others connected with his business enterprise. The citizens committee alone are responsible for the planning for the demonstration of well come, Mir. Dean simply acccding to the request of the committee and the desire of the citizens to have the House Warming, but will do what he can to have the affair successful.
 This is an entirely new movement for this city, and is intended to unite
 the people in taking an interest in ad-
 vancing the business of Putnam and 10 give encouragement 10 those ac-
 lively at work i'll trying to bring to our city business enterprises and to do
 whatever will increase the importance
 of the city as place for homes for en- frightened and progressive people. Also
 10 make those who come among us for
 business or to share in our advantages
 and benefits that they shall realize they have an earnest and hearty well
 come. In a word:to become united as
 community in striving to promote
 whatever Is of general interest to ben
 eft the city and make it all that it's ad-
 yantages are susceptible of being and
 have 1t what every citizen desires 1t to
 be in their own estimation and also of
 the many desirable people who are
 seeking homes for their families. The Business Mems Association has
 assumed the duty of leading tn this i'm mportantssrvice, itsdoes so because 1t
 does represent the entire community,
 as every citizen is invited to take part and participate in the common privi-
 leges and duties on equal terms. Without some organization of the
 kind no city can make the advance in I prosperity and high character to which
 Il is entitled This can be abundantly l demonstrated.
 At the coming House Warming, on
 July 18th, it is likely that what the Blu siness Mems Association has already l accomplished for the adyancements of
 the city's prosperity, and what ii aims
 to accomplish will. be more fully and
 clearly set forth.
 As no oinvitation other than that giv-
 en in the newspapers has been given out each citizen must consider himself thus specially invited to the House Warm
 ing, July l2th, and is also invited to do anything he can to give 1t addition al interest, and thus show that he pos
 sesses the public spirit that the Asso- citation is seeking 10 arouse. We learn that the power plant ofithe Dean Factory was started last Satur- day for test run. From this we may feel assured that all the works will be in perfect working order when our cit- izens gather there to witness their ope- rations.
