evening when it was reported that
after all bills had been paid bal
ance of S37S.66 was in the treasury.
This is certainly gratifying news to
the public. The total amount receiv-
ed was $1,5O76S; Of this amount
$1,129.02 was paid out to date by
orders only.
An unusual amount of credit for
hard work done is due to the general
secretary, n. B. Spencer, who spent
considerable time in preparation,
writing letters and overseeing things
during the celebration, mic" is al
ways a worker and not shirker,
The Wayne county celebration
committee desire to especially thank
the Delaware and Hudson railroad
for the good service rendered and
also for the use of the lawns on
either side Of their depot on Main
street. They also wish to thank
Yardmaster George w. Penwarden
for courtesies extended during the
celebration.
To Erik Bros. and c. A. Cortright
the committee is especially grateful
for the use of their automobile and
truck. To everybody who partici

interest manifested.
The committee furnishes US with
the following eport, which also in
cludes list of boosters who wanted
to see the celebration a success.
The committee also wishes to
thank the editors, and their assist
ants for all the hard work they did
in giving the people such quick and
accurate accounts OF the celebration,
and for the boosting they gave the
celebration in every issue of their
papers.
To the Hon. A. T. Searle, Mayor
McCarty and the Borough Council the
committee is truly grateful for their
assistance in every way rendered.
To Harry Rettew, for the use of
one of his stores, which made it
possible for the committee to have
an office for the transaction of their
committee work.
To H. H. Richards, the Honesdale
Electric Light Co. and Leonard Beur-
ket whose hard work and efforts
made it possible to have plenty of
light on the streets during the cele-
bration.
If any one who gave their money
or time to help the celebration in
any way has been omitted from the
list, we assure them that it was not
done Intentionally and to them we
offer an apology. And to those who
were not in favor of the celebration
and declined to help in any way, 60
ing so far as to predict it would be
a failure and a detriment to Homes
dale, the committee can only say,
that the grand success attained
proves that the minority were in the
wrong. A large gathering of peo-
pie in town will help it financially,
if not, why are cities and towns
throughout the country using every
fair means possible to secure street
fairs, conventions, old home weeks
and in fact any thing that will
attract large crowds?
The Wayne celebration committee,
is particularly grateful to the fol-
lowing for their help in making the
celebration one grand success with
their financial assistance:
