posed increase in street car fares

by the band. The affair will be
tried out, it is expected at the
second band concert of the sea-
son.

suggested to have one night de-
voted to songs by local compos-
ers concerning the state and the
city. 1t was also suggested that a

that the words of the songs would
be before everyone and thus
strengthen the interest. Advertis-
ers also would use this opportuni-
ty to print cards with the music

around among the crowd, it was
suggested.
