Arrangements for the coming

school grounds July /, 2 and 4th un-
der the auspices of the Twentieth Cen
tury Club of Smyrna and Sylvester's
Concert Band of Smyrna, are nearing |
completion and promises to be an en-
joyable three day event in Smyrna. |
The club women who originated this /
Fourth of July event and have carried
it on so successfully since it was
started, will go fifty-ffty with our
band boys this year. The band which
recently acquired its new uniforms
will appear every evening in the band
stand and give concerts. They will
also play on the Fourth, assisting the
side show and the baseball games and
giving an evening concert. The side
show which will be given as usual by
home talent, will have an excellent
program this year that none should
miss. Besides the side show there will
be a number of booths and amusement
places, some of them innovations.
There will be no parade on the Fourth
but two games of baseball with the
Fort dupont team, one in the morn
ing and one in the afternoon. Smyr-
ma hopes to have a winning team lin
ed up for the occasion. The Fair Di-
rectors hope to open the afternoon
events on the school grounds. with
some patriotic exercises and public
speaking, but as the Fort DUPONT base
ball contingent will be here, probably
