LET'S BUILD A BAND STAND.

The City Of Greenwood is in
absolute need Of q Band Stand
and a place to give open air con-
certs during the simmer months.
We now have the plans for a
substantial and artistic stand
which viii cost about $4OO and to
be located on the school house
grounds which is City Property,
with large park room. The stand
will be "a feet in diameter, octa-
gon shape with tower roof, flag
pole and bungalow, rafter finish.
painted white and all screened in.
Seats are to be placed on the
grounds providing comfort for our
home families as we'll as visitors.
A committee was appointed by the
Business League over year ago
to look after a proposition of this
kind, but a suitable location and
proper support were lacking and
the city did not have and has MT
now a surplus Of funds with
which to erect the same.
Now in the last week we have
some parties who are taking con-
siderable interest in this matter
and it promises to be a success.
The White Mechanics Associa-
ton of Greenwood have come
forward and say that they will
each contribute one-half days
work toward erecting same. This
includes carpenters, bricklayers,
painters, etc. Also a number of
people have donated lumber and
other materials.
II is the intention of the parties
pushing the project to have built
a very handsome and durable
band stand that will be an orna-
ment not only to the school
grounds but to the city at large
and last a number OF years. The
Community Y. M. c. A. have also
interested themselves to the ex-
tent Of donating $500 to the
proposition.
Now. il behooyes the res. Of Us
q come t0 the iI'oEt and p.t 0lir
shoulder to The wheel to make il
a success SO as to provide a COM
Portable place for out door enter
tainments, which would not only
be pleasure for the public but
for yourself and family to spend
pleasant evenings at the enter
tainments to be furnished by
Our Band" and other musical
organizations from time to time
during the summer.

working people are most likely to suf-
fer from it. Relief may be had by
massaging the back with Chamber

day. Try it. Obtainable everywhere.
