of the County, appeared and delighted
a crowd at the Square with their
music from a specially erected, bunt-ing
draped stand on th.e Community
Hotel property. By five o'clock, when
the parade was to form, more and
more people appeared and the streets
•were crowded with cars. Back on
SpijU.ce Street the paraders were
forming and getting ready to move.

the line were people and applause and
cheers greeted the marchers. The line
turned west on Main Street and pro-ceeded
to the Square where all joined
