A\ ho is going to give that dance when
the spring work is done? Wo under
stand that owing to a misunderstanding
between two of our, best organizations
the two last dances in this city did not
materialize as well as they should under
ordinary ci nm instances, but that this
misunderstanding has recently been ree
tilled. The next time a dance (or any
thing for the public . amusement or
good) is gotten up, let. us show our
friendly feeling toward one another and
our interest in the community by all
sticking together. What is the use of
! potty strife? It only goes from bad to
I worse, and it can Ik* so easily settled if
i attended to in the beginning.
