A meeting of the Soldiers’ monument committee was held in the selecemen’s room Friday evening. Much busines: relative to the detail of the unvelling, which 1s an event ten weeks away, was transacted. Preaident aHskell an~ nounced that he had engaged the ser. vices of the Plainfield Brass band of 23 pieces for Memorial day. Investi- gation through Joseph Labonne, for- mer leader of the Jeweit City band, has proven that this band, with the meveral new molo plavers, is one of the finest amateur bands in this section. Rev. Father Hayee and Mr. Ballou were appointed a committee io have in charge the selection and printing of suitable invitations for the unvell- ing. These invitations are to be of artistic souvenir design: residents of the town or borough. who desire to invite out of town friends, may ob- tain Invitation cards from any mem- ber of the committee.

The dinners will be the reg- ular bean dinner, such-as is served by the churches at present, each so- ciety preparing the same menu. By this _arrangement the _local churches will receive matérial finan- cial benefit and the momey thus ex- pended yill remain in town.
