The Vote on Port
The electric light plaut was not
moved to the new location with the

Sunday, as was intended, because
preparations bad not been fully
completed. Everything would be
in readiness tomorrow but the man­
agement bar thought best to post­
pone the move until next Sunday,
rather than run any risk of inter­
ruption of service during the fair
which commences at Mvrtle Point
tomorrow.
