CROWDS At CARNIVAL
BUT T|GHTNESS OF
MONEY WAS APPARENT

The annual carnival by the firemen
OF the Independent Company OF the
Second Ward. opened Saturday night
mid a blaze of light and color. but it
was not as auspicious an opening as
had been anticipated. Not that the
crowds were not there. On the con-
trary thare was a jam OF folks. old
and young. but the thing lacking as
far as the promoters are concerned
was that there was not much liber-
ality on their part in the spending
line. and i'm consequence. results OBJ
tanned at some OF the stands, are re-
ported as disappointing.
The heat of the night. however. did
not seem TO deter the lovers OF the
light fantastic one whit. for the dance
floor was crowded throughout the eve-
ming.
The carnival will continue through
out this week. and there is plenty in
the way OF amusements 10 satisfy
young and old. IL would appear to
behoovc every citizen TO patronize the
firemen. in this their annual function,
as means of expressing their appre-
citation OF their volunteer services
they give from time TO time at fires in
the city.
