LAWN FESTIVAL ATTRACTS MANY.

The opening night of the lawn festival being held at the Parochial school grounds drew a large crowd and afforded a great deal of amusement to the patrons. The Gasey Lane band is the principal feature and instills the necessary pep into the festival. Confetti and tin horns made their appearance on the streets last night and lent a carnival atmosphere to the festival. Earlier in the evening the cafeteria lunch drew’ a large number of people and a considerable sum of money was realized. The Japanese booth, the open air theatre, the gypsy fortune tellers and other booths reported a splendid business. The festival will be held again this evening.
