On the morning program the next thing to occur was a patriotic meeting on the front steps of Meredith city hall. There several noteworthy officials address the citizens, among them, Mr. Spud Harrison, agricultural bureau expert. The essence of his speech was this: Looking in my bureau drawer this morning, I found a green button which came off of something last night at the Peanut Growers ' ball. Green is Irish, and Irish eat potatoes. Therefore the potato crop will be a bump- er next year. Just watch your potato and see if it will grow into a bumper. The second speaker of the morning was Miss Marguirite Matney, the Edna Wal- lace Hopper of Campustown, who talked on How to Wear a Double Chin Be- comingly, or Seventy Easy Rules for Removing the Twelfth Right Eyelash. Following this revelation a number of school children took part in a pleasing interpretation of fashion when grandma was a grand ma. Ella Abraham, Elizabeth Adams, Nor- ma Anderson, Robert Benedict, and James Hughes took part in a play called, The Smelling Salts, the Smelling Salts, Susie saw a Bug. The second graders, Mary Katherine Burritt, LeRoy Clare, John Davis, Ray- mond Davis, and Orval Dobson sang Stars and Stripes Forever or Fifty Years or Never. In a lovely dance number in which the youngsters were oddly enough dressed in gunny sacks and green caps and carry- ing all sorts of violent contraptions, the children gave an interpretation of Fifty Fear in Hazing, or The Slaying of Poachohontas.

At noon the old citizens had a picni: which was marked by great amounts of hilarity, as they played Button, Button, whose got the Thread? Following these festivities there was a free program on Jordan street which was attended by 298 people, the total popula- tion, 57 dogSj 3 cats, 2 white mice, and an undetermined number of .eas on the dogs. A difficult act was performed by the Balance Budget trope, consisting of Zero and Zero.
