This cele= ' bration was thoroughly. enjoyed' and,1 is distinctively set aside as a.memor- able date in the annals of historical. town events, as being the occasion when the citizens "went over the top" and rolled up a navy league fund of 42741 to their credit. The outcome of the final details of this celebration were approaching the conclusive stage when the Dominion -wide appeal for I aid to the sailors was launched, and in compliance therewith, our Navy Leaguei::again cleared the decks for action through the appointment of a Sailors'Nfeek Campaign Committe, to make e,' free-for-all canvass through- out the town.
