Green Mill Garden

Three great nights of dancing will start Saturday night at the Green Mill Garden when the New Years eve dancing party gets under way. Saturday, Sunday and Monday nights all feature events at the popular amusement place.
 About this New Years eve frolic. Did you ever consider for a minute that the Green Mill Garden is the only spot where you can actually stay during the dance and see the old year out and the New Year in while the party goes merrily and noisily on?
 Nothing has been overlooked by the management that can assist the comfort and play of the guests of the Mill on Saturday night. The frolickers thought that the Christmas dance saw an accumulation of all the noise and fun makers in the country, but the New Years eve srolickers will have enough noisers so make the last dancing night look ike an amateur.
 The old year will die out with 'Auld Lang" and break into the new year with the snappiest fox trot of the past season. The novelty band has whole flock of new ones ready and the Blacksmith rag with the anvil chorus will ring out just after he Wabash blues"
