bers of the Central Labor union for a
preliminary discussion of plans for

tions in the city be invited to come
together in a contest for prizes given
for the organization making the best
showing.
parade of ali the organizations has
also been suggested and with the new
brass band now being formed in the
city ready to lead the van on Labor's

next celebration is to excel any pre-
vious demonstration of the kind at
tempted in Admission.
C. c. Casey is president of the Central
Labor union and will preside over the
meeting to be held Monday evening.
