CELEBRATION OR
NO CELEBRATION
That Is the Question
That Is Agitating
Many Citizens To
day. A meeting of tho business mon
nnd others Interested in thn proposed
Fourth of July colobrntlon -will bo
held In tho Chamber of Commerce nt
8 o'clock till evening, when lt,wll
be decided whether anything Is to bo
done or not. In discussing tho ques
tion, one well known citizen today
suld:
"I guess we're about as near dead
us It Is ponslbln for a city to bo anil
remain on tho map. Kor tho past
four or fivn years wo havo had things
coming our wuy so easily, that wn
Just lolled hack and waited for thlngn
to happen. An The Herald said a few
days ago, 'Hurd times aro not com
ing, but soft tlmcfl are going.' In
fnct, they're gono, and If wo are go
ing to amount to anything wo bad
hotter begin to reullze It.
"Tako this Fourth of July cele
bration. Thero Is 111)', with. a handful
of people, putting oyer ono Inst year
that surprised everyone. They are
1 going to do It again this year. Why,
wn had better go out there and try
and get those people to como hero.
They aro nlivo. Home of tho 'dead
ones' hero nay, don't stop Illy. Who
wants to stop hcrT I hope she will
havo ten thousand peoplo thoro. It
would not effect our celebration hero.
ICYoryono who wanU to go will do
so, anyway. Hut tho people In Dorrls,
Weed, llruy, Yrekn and cltowhero
may want to como hero. Let us bring
them. Kveu peoplo In Illy may want
to como. Just ns poopla horc will
want to go to Illy. Then, let us give
them something to come to. Iit, ns
wake np and put somo pep Into tho
old town Just nnco -and aeo If sho
can't hit her old gait. Bho has been
, sleoplng long onough."
That statement sums up about hov
ninety per cont of tho Interested
peoplo feel about a celebration. Not
that all of thorn nro going to bo In
town many who are urging It say
thoy will go to Illy, fishing or olso
whero. but they feel that the pres
tlgo or the city and Its futuro demand
that something bo dono to place tho
city back whoro It belongs, Instead of
Just drifting pith the tide.
