The executive committee had at first some misgivings as to the ad- meeting on Monday night. However, he thought the parade would be the means of bringing the people down town, and the meeting would keep them down. He thianked the Publicity Committee on -'hehall of the executive for their good work and expressed confidence ailew : 8{ in the programme next week. The Military Parade.
