Nowadays there is no local enthusiasm for bhoat race day and, this year at least, there is lack of Independe\ce Day enthusiasm. How- ever, Mayor Morgan having failed in his_effort to have a firemen’s parade and picnic on that day has resolved to give a free public dance on the State street pavement on the night of the Fourth and will hire a couple of bands, not with his personal coin, to furnish the music for dancing.
