MASQUERADE SKATING CARNIVAL The big
masquerade skating carnival is only few
days off now. Manager Pierce has selected
March 18th and will see if he cannot fix up
matters with the weather clerk, as he has
never held masquerade carnival in either
Bangor. Rockland or Belfast but what it has
stormed during the day light, although he
has had record-breaking owds in every in
stance, What will it be if it is a pleasant
night? The doors will open at $50 p. m. The
regular price for admission ten cents. No re-
served seats; first come first served. No chill
dren admitted free; everyone will pay on this
occasion. Every indication now shows that
there will be more in costume than ever be-
fore. Parties who visiting the auto show
in Boston intend to hire fine costumes for the
occasion, regardless of price, and we have
every reason to believe that this carnival will
be big success The u prizes offered will be
for the best costumes, 3 for ladies best, for
gents best, 8 for ladies most comical, for
gents most comcal, No not in costume
allowed the floor until after the grand
march at $50. There will be skating until II
o'clock. Watch for prizes in Jellison & Greer S
window. This will be the last carnival of the
season.
