Show JULY FOURTH TO BE PATRIOTICALLY CELEBRATED HERE Floats which depend on originality or-iginality and cleverness for appeal ap-peal are being solicited for entry en-try In the 10.00 a.m. parade highlighting high-lighting the annual Fourth of July celebration, sponsored by Bingham Volunteer Firemen. The program this year will be as interesting in-teresting and complete as it is every year, but expenses are being be-ing pared wherever possible to meet a reduced budget. No prizes will be given for floats, according to J. Lynn Booth, chairman, and firemen are setting the example and advising ad-vising all civic organizations and firms to use ingenuity in making the parade interesting. "This year it is more patriotic for individuals and groups to buy bonds and stamps with money mon-ey usually expended in celebrating celebrat-ing the Fourth of July," Mr. Booth states. No. 1 Firemen's auxiliary has decided there will be no "Miss Bingham" contest or float, Mrs. John F. O'Brien, president, reported re-ported to the Fourth of July committee Wednesday night. Both auxiliaries will have entries in the parade. Details of the interesting program pro-gram will be announced next week. Assisting Mr. Booth with plans are Mr. O'Brien, Earl T. James, J. H. Culleton, Ross Beckstead and John T. West. I |
