He had written to band leaden In Uridgeton and Millville.

Itlder, I'resldmt of the Ocean •Ity Athletic Aawodatlon. said the Idea * to have an old-fashioned Fourth— * a pie pie and aflbrd amusement to visitor*. Continuing, he nald hi* thought was to have a lot of athletic sports between the mem hers of the Athletic Assoc laud the Yacht Club. He also fahaving an orator for the day. There are two days In the year that ipremely national—the Fourth of July and Decoration Day. mcr we celebrate the signing of the Dedaratioo of Independence, by which we severed the shackles of British tyranny, and on Decoration Day we revere the memories of our father* and grand father*, who fought and bled for the Union. Hu rely we should have the Declaration of independence reed. Aside from the patriotic aspect, a commercial side to the a flair Such a celebration will help the city. On bclialf of the Athletic AssoclaUon, Dr. KMer promised to do all In Ills power to help make the occasion a jeers* Father McCloskey asked for luforlalkm concerning the events for the lornlug. He suggested that the patbe morning about 10JW o'clock, when the visitor* would be arivlog, and a portion of the athletic sports could be disposed of, too. If of the eelcbraUon Is held Ull the afternoon, the programme of Uie Junior* would be Interfered with, perhaps. Another thing, If these exerdam are gone through with early, the expense of keeping a band over nlglit would be done away with. Councilman Headley as Id that it ad been a hard matter lo get the lire >mpanic* to parade on the Fourth, ut that they had anally decided lo do 1 In the early evening. He moved that the parade Hart at 6 o'clock. This was seconded by the I Lev. J. B. Mckadtey. Mayor Champion asked If thia would conflict with the Junior's programme. John W. Hmith, representliiK the Junior* aatd, that tht* organtxatlon bad dcflulle plans as yet. They lisd wanted It to be a Junior Mechanics' day In this county. They were go! ug to give a flag to the Ocean City Camp Meeting Association. The proposition was to have the flag raising shortly after Uie noon hour, and to music aod a|«ecbe*. The *pcaker thought that II might be a good Idea i Join force* lu the parade. Dr. Rider called atlcnUou to the financial end of the celebration, will require considerable money to give a creditable display and make It eminently successful. On behalf of Athletic Association he promised to raise KU. (lodfrey. from the Reliance Fire Company, the organ last km lie represent* la wlllhave open boose and furnish entertainment for the visitors. Directly after the parade, the Kaiiance Intends 'log a flag rwislng, when (here will a short speech, and then the visitors will be entertained Inside of

Charles Hampson slated that nearly «•< all of the Junior* desired to |iartlcl|>alc In the tlremen's parade, which ought lo be an affair by itself. Mr. Headley agreed with this, adding tlial It I* the day set for the annual iws|iectloii of the lire com|>anies. J. W. Smith sail! tliat he duean’t »ant the day to he a failure. The Juniors here ought to have much Interest In their celebration. T lie re will probably be nearly three hundred I ling Juniors here on the Fourth, lo l he matter of a baud, Rev. H. Wesley Lake had told him that he would get Hie Ocean City band, but Harry Lake j had told the *|waker that he didn't 1 think he could get the hand together for that day. Mr. Smith * suggestion tliat they might be able to get the liners' I'olut hand created a laugh Kmerson Smith, from Liberty Fire iimpany, advocated a firemen's parade. He didn't see how his company, being young and small In membership, can contribute any money for nuslc. In fact, the Instructions given he committee present were to not

ipeud any money.

Mr. Headley thonght the Reliance ompany's proposition a good one, md It should be accepted. They could combine on the selection of music. One good band would be sufflelent for

all the exercise*.

Dr. itlder said that the $50 from the Athletk- Association I* for no special interest. It Is Intended only as a contribution toward a general fund, the other* to give as they feel able. Kev. J. B. McCloskey'* mutton tliat ic morning be given over to the Athletic Association'* sports was carried. »a* agreed that the afternoon be uken up by the yacht club events, tlie base ball game and the Junior's flag raising, the early evening by the firemen and from 8 o'clock hy the Athletic Association's dance. Mayor Champion said that all should get together. Il is wot to be a day for one special organisation. Everybody and all societies should be Invited to participate. John Maris, Chief of the Fire Departmeut, waa of the opinion that "very II reman who la a Junior Mechanic would parade with the Ore

companies.

Dr. Rider favored giving the fire com pastas the right of way and man agemeul of the parade, and that tile affair be participated Is by other organ Ira! tuns and clubs that a committee appointed by the Mayor shall see proper to in vita. This waa pai W. H. (iraham was named as the' miller. As nearly every order lu the was represented at the meeting, the Invitation was extended at once. The yacht club will be notified by let-

Others In the meeting ware of opinion that this would not be enough. Dr. Rider thought one band i lent, bat the Mayor’s view wae they would have plenty of nee for two bauda. Kroeraoo Bmlth, of the Liberty Fire 'ompauy, expressed a willingness to ' o everything possible, end be would bring up the matter at the next meet log of the company. . <k>dfray’* opinion was that each

up the balance of $50.

Mr. Headley promised $76 from the Ocean City Voiunteeni, No. 1. The Mayor thought that If the yaehl Hob fat given the nee of the n ir a portion of the time the yaehts-

William Smith, of the Liberty Fire Company, stated that this company twenty-two members, yet he felt that they might be ablate rake W> by going down Into their pockets. Mr. Godfrey expressed the Hew list. In addition to taking care of the Isttore, the Reliance Company might
