last Friday evenine. These weekly
events are appreciate e by the citizens
who gather in large timbers to enjoy
the music. The ban _ is now in a fairly

master Duncan, T e annual business
meeting was held o
when the officers-w�
year as follows: --P

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.
