It has always been so and w ill continue to be so. The committee elected to put on the Miners’ Jub ilee took over a job they knew little about, all ama teurs in the business, babes in the woods, as it were, but they had the fortitude to go ahead regardless and do the best the\ know how. Of course they are go ing to make mistakes, mayb some serious ones, but they are going to l»e mistakes of the head, not of the heart, and a charitable, constructive public i going to overlook these mistake- and help them correct the miscues next year.
