Bazaar a Success
The annual bazaar and supper CIV
en- under the auspices of the Ladies'
Aid society Saturday afternoon and
evening was an enjoyable affair and
was INDUCED in by vast crowd OF
people. Potosi is unlike some other
places that show religious prefer
ences. Here Catholics and Protest
ants join together to help make their
social functions bowling successes as
was heretofore done and as was done
in this instance. Religion does not en-
ter when it comes to helping one or
the other. We are unable at this time
to give the exact net proceeds from
the bazaar and supper but under
stand that is is far beyond expecta-
tions Probably we may be in a po-
sition to do so in our next issue.
