NASHVILLE MAN MAKES
GOOD AS BAND TEACHER

The Kellerton, Iowa, Globe has the
following to say of Charley Stewards
ability as a band leader in this city:
1t seemed like old times to see such
a large crowd in the city last Satur-
day night listening to the band con-
cert. They were here from distance
and from some of the neighboring
towns. The boys seem to improve
wonderfully each time they appear in
public.
Mr.. Charles w. Stewart, the new
leader, is certainly doing some Won
derful work with the band and we be-
lieve the boys as well as the public
are approaching this fact Mr.. Stew
art said to us: "Just give me lit
tie time and l will show you one of
the best bands in this section. We
have the material to work with and
the boys are responding fine. When
the weather settles and the roads get
good we look for even larger crowds
than we had Saturday night. A good
program has been arranged by Mr.
Stewart for next Saturday night See
the program on page one.

Thing Ever Attempted to Raise
Money For-Another Year Is
Now Certain.

Manager ]. Barbour Russell, Of the
Maysville Boys Band, announced this
afternoon that sufficient funds had
been pledged to assure the meeting OF
all financial obligations for the boys

Only a few hours were necessary to
place the matter before the people and
every one seemed anxious to help such

such rapid progress that the business
men and citizens of Maysville were
anxious to have a part in financing
the organization. There are yet few
pledges and subscriptions to come in
but Mr.. Russell said he was certain
that the fund was now assured.
The expenses of the band for anoth-
err year were anticipated and budget
made to cover all possible expenses
and the fund now assured covers all
of these expenses.

ing the suits for the boys in the very
near future and they are especially

CAMPAIGN FOR MORE

Chamber Of Commerce Plans Intensive
Campaign on June 5-Buslness
Men Urged TO Close Stores
Friday.


The Board OF Directors Of the Mays
Vile Chamber Of Commerce met In re-
gular session last evening aind trans
acted some important business for the
organization.
A communication from the New Or
leans Association of Commerce was
presented requesting the endorsement
Of the local organization to resolutions
adopted by that body calling upon the
commercial organizations of the Unit
cd States to assist in relieving the
farm labor shortage In the South, by
endeavoring to influence the labor that
was transported from the agricultural
communities to the industrial centers,
to return to their home community.
Upon motion the Secretary was in
structed to communicate to our Con-
gresham appropriate resolutions en-
bodying a similar desire of the local
OHdliDtl Vi SOliluleTCe.
In behalf of the Soldiers and Sailors
Association, Captain Robert Cochran,
President of the organization, appear
ed before the Directors requesting
their endorsement to the desire of the
Soldiers and Sailors that the local
merchants close their places of bust
ness from 1880 to on Memorial Day,
so that their clerks might participate
and enjoy the program as planned by
the Association. A motion prevailed
instructing the Secretary to transmit
the approval, of the Board of Direc-
tors, through the press, of the desire
of the Soldiers and Sailors Association
as presented by Captain Cochran.
Further plans were discussed for the
coming Rural Membership drive cam
paign. On account of the Gentry Bros.
circus being in the city next Wednes-
day, June 4th, they felt that many of
the men from the county would bring
their families to the show, and it was
wise to postpone the campaign for one
day, so members of the different teams
will please be informed that the cam
paign will take place on Thursday,
June 5th, instead of June 4th as before
planned.
A complimentary lunchean will be
given to the members of the teams in
the offices of the Chamber of Com
merce next Tuesday from 12-1:15 at
which time the campaign will be out
lined. Judge Purnell was elected by
the Board of Directors, at the meeting
last evening to chairman the campaign
which is ample assurance of its sue
cess. The Board of Directors plan to
increase the present rural membership
from one hundred to five hundred and
when this is accomplished, Maysville
will be ablN to boast of one of the lar
gest and most active City-County Com
mercial Organizations in the United
States.
