ANOTHER
BANQUET At
The MARION

Since the banquet given at the
Marion by the board OF trade few
weeks ago, there is a great demand
for more such events, and these re-
quests come largely from farmers
and fruit growers. The board has
therefore decided to give another
banquet about Thursday, February
8, and in order to accommodate the
people from out of town the hour has
been set for noon. AS only about
200 guests can be accommodated, 1t
will be necessary to get responses
from all who wish to attend In order
to reserve the plates, as about 100
guests were turned away at the last
banquet for want of room. II Is sug-
gested that the president of the agri-
cultural college be invited to make a
talk upon this occasion as also Gov
ernor West, Tom Richardson and a
number OF local speakers. These de-
tails will, however, be settled later
and announcements made In due
time.
All approving of this plan and
wishing plates reserved for the oc-
casion, should leave word at the Of
fee Of the Board of Trade at once.
The tickets will be 90 cents per
plate.
