The citizen's band save the first open air concert of the se. ,son on the park last Friday evenine. These weekly events are appreciate e by the citizens who gather in large timbers to enjoy the music.

H. Green; t auditors, J. Fraser s Monday evening, re, elected for the -esident, R. Barrett; Porter; secretary, easurer, A, Pilon, Ind A. J. Nicholls; property committee- A. Hingston and A. M. Bird. The secretary -treasurer's report showed that while in the past two years the band las received in the way of grants froi- the town council only $200, they h e paid the band- master's salary and leo purchased about $500 worth of band roperty, including band music, unifor s and music stands, this adding to the sets of the town. This is indeed a ere utable showing, and when it ie considered that the members give a great deal of their time to prac- tice and evening eigagements and re- ceive no remuneratem for their services for actual ti a los during except a t d urs ng work- - ing hours, they are ertainly entitled to the generous suppor of the citizens and townspeople, whioh as been Bo freely - given, and Which as been very en- couraging to the me bers of the band. While is must be sal that the boys are in every way capable f rendering first, blase musio, the want f a suitable place to play has been sadly eft. The remedy for this is to be found the erection of a band stand in the pa k. It halt been estimated that a suite le stand could be erected for one hundre 1 dollar' or there, abouts, and it is hoped fiat some means tnay be devised whereb; the desired re. belt may be obtained.
