CRITICIZE PLAN FOR
BAND CONCERT
Objection to Departure from Vote of
Village Meeting = Ample Room
for All on Hospital Grounds.

Numerous persons have made criti-
cism since the announcement that one of
the band concerts is to be given on
the hospital grounds next Wednesday
evening on the occasion of lawn par
ty by the Alumnae association Of
nurses. The criticism is based on the
fact that the concert is on private
property primarily for the benefit of
a private association and that the
wording Of the motion under which the
village appropriation for the concerts
was made at the village meeting called
for this being at the same places
as formerly.
The attention Of Chairman Solon A.
Richmond Of the village commissioners
was called to this fact this noon. Mr..
Richmond said that he had not thought
of the eXact wording of the article be
fore. He pointed out that so far as
the criticism as to private grounds is
concerned one concert is given annual
ly on the grounds of the Home for the
Aged and another on Prospect hill on
the private grounds of DR.. J. L. Rath-
bone. There is ample room about 3he
hospital grounds for all who may care
to hear the music.
