NORTH JAY — A crowd of about 300 people attended the Big Bard dance last evening at Lewis Mosher’s. They came from far and near, and all seemed to be ready to do their part for a grand good time, which all can vouch for that were present, and it was way into the small hours of morning before the crowd could think of leaving such an enjoyable occasion. Good music was furnished by Herrick’s orchestra of Livermore Falls.

Prospects for the summer were rather dim after the city clerk’s budget request for an office fan was refused, but Ward Five Alderman Frank J.
