Cherry Day" yesterday was a
success beyond the expectations of
the committee of the Fairgrounds
Association and they desire to thank
the public generally for the generous
response and the Chamber of Com
merce for the use of their rooms
for the meeting of the committee
which had the distribution of cherries
IN charge. Fifteen young ladies vol
unteered their services and sold the
cherries on the streets, while two
went to Mount Vernon with two hun
dred cherries and returned early in
the afternoon, having disposed of
their supply at an average of seven
teen and half cents apiece. The
Fairgrounds for the children, who are
not so fortunate as to have yards to
play in during the summer months, is
Il most worthy object, and not only
are the children out of the streets
but an instructor is present to watch
over them and teach the older ones
various useful accomplishments. The
sale of cherries yesterday netted
about $70 for the upkeep of the
grounds this coming summer.
