To carry out the plans decid ed upon for the entertainment of the crowd attending the Coun ty Commencement, it will be ; necessary to have in hand a suf- of cash Evry person in the town should have an earnest desire to contribute to the cause and believing this to be true, the Commercial Club has appointed Messers Clyde Cahoon, D. 0, Brinkley and E.

Since March 30th has been set apart as the time, and Plymouth selected as the place by the edu cation officials of the county as the second time and place for holding the second annual Coun ty Commencement, the Comraer C o, at : hd" meeting on Monday night, took the matter up for discussion and it was the united voice of the Club that as Plymouth was to be honored by the presence of possibly fifteen hundred or two thousand school children and their parents, it was up to Plymouth to give the visitors a hearty reception. To this end several committees were appointed composed of ac tive business men and farmers throughout Plymouth Township. The first proposition taken up was on the feeding of the visi tors. Mr. W. R. Hampton at once offered the use of his stor age rooms. Here, converting the concrete basement into a kitchen, with the two stories above, to be used as dinning rooms, fully two thousand people can be tabled, Wnat to have, was the next question, This will be settled sxtn bv a commitee. Don't worry, that commitee mostly women, will feed the people if it takes every hog and cow in the township. The people of Plymouth are not going to run the commence ment, but they have put their shoulders to the wheel and are going to help push with the school people in making it a big day. .., It will cost money to do all that has been proposed; but wnat is dollars to the good music, the biiz dinner, the educational r tlly, the literary contests, the exhibits; the good time all will have, races, moving picture shows, parades, pretty women and happy children are worth the price.
