| Show I 1 THAT aniu a 1 14 1 I the formed Exl manager r lallon a O 0 To makes kakta an iu it S cou from Hun laville chate dated february aadu ed your subscriber I 1 notice that your subscriber makes mr nix and the manager since the organization until quite recent fi one and the sam person eperson N now OW the manager butil quite recently was the undersigned undersigner under signed I 1 wish to refer to a few innuendoes cast upon the former manager until quite recently mr nix as a a critic J I 1 suppose i is ia able to answer for himself but as your subscriber does not mot I 1 deny any of criticisms there is no need amr of mr nix replying I 1 it t has been well will eaid said that where ignorance is blia blis lis folly to be wice and may be it A ia is not well to criticise criticism critic ise but mr editor after alf aly ia is not criticism the emera emery that polishes and sharpens esteel Is he not a friend that will point out our faults and show us the way to remedy them all criticisms may be termed fault fl fiu dinc but a rose by any ally other name will smell 1413 the cormer ormer manager wai iager until quite re recently cent 7 1 4 redig resigned tied fo for reasons best known to himbele him belf the members of the tile are not what he lie niad them god forbids The former lua r did state that he held nothing but ilie tile beat feelings to ards all ah the members bIrs odthe of the as etc as mated by your subscriber but he e did not say he be ali approved of a all I 1 their act ionar I 1 do not wiell wish to be egotistical egoistical but b ut I 1 have beer a friend to alf organ 4 i izat ions iti lu the tile wards in in which I 1 have lived fur the past twenty seven years and hope to ure u what little e talent I 1 have in iu aes assisting all institutions organized for the education or amusement of f the young I 1 presume your subscriber riber has not spent as I 1 many hours willingly his family included include das a 8 the former forme r manager has bas year yearb without er atlon your in made ade a mistake 1 I wilf wilfoot not cay say he lied when be suites that as a to the music why they arc are members of mr band if f he means that mr nix and the former manager etc ie is one and the same person fara r t via tor for the past two pars but if they belong to mr nixa band which has the honor of brin bringing gill forth the sweet f trains strains of music produced at tit the public balls in the y village then mr nix and t the he former manager tanager are two distinct per him take which on agea 8 so let horn of the dilemma he like ahe has shown himself himsel f to be unreliable aa as a correspondent but perhaps this is his first attempt and ought to be excused again what does your subscriber mean by baying he ia is sorry y that mr nix was taken in 1 now mr nir nix N ix did lid not say he was t taken aken in id he said he took it in and if I 1 your subscriber acknowledges tb through rough the public press that he took look anybody in ill he he ought to be ashamed of himself himsel and should apologize I 1 pity the borrowings sor of the tho P poor 0 rr cir youny oung mani matil again your subscriber first fraye it is fault finding and andol almost most in the next breath says it 14 ia a compliment nolif now if fault find int and compliment mean the same thing why should your 11 le be so it ia is an old adage that children and fools despise criticism and I 1 suppose your you subscriber was blinded by wrath tb because 1 mr nix or as he be will have it the former manager until quite r recently cent ly ait oit offered ered a few kindly suggestions publicly which the former manager etc told mr nix ni he had bad often told the association privately but some of the members and perhaps per hap hape your subscriber knew bo S Q much that they would not take adv advice ice given in in the spirit of kin kindness duess aa as your subscriber 1 I will wilf forgive your for that unkind ungentlemanly cut c ut about the complimentary because it is ii not true the manager recently 1 has not ager r until quite received one ticket from the association fill f ace ca bai hi resignation ai as manager and if he Y S or tho the burines a manager gave a complimentary to anyone anyone else then mr nix and the former manager are not one and the same person aga again in if the lormer manager bad rece received avel a complimentary was it not due if he had bad worked to organize 0 anize teach te aab and in le very way w a y aig aid the association to obtain books ks and etc to the amount of nearly tw two 0 hundred dollars not including money distributed to each member now I 1 doubt if sub scriber ec riber has dono one tenth aa As much towards the establishment merit of the H D A as mr nix has if he lie will have it so an and d as to comoli ment mentar aries iea well I 1 will say a nothing just now on that subject A f few e w words more and I 1 am done don I 1 detill t fal assert without fear of contradiction that aarn a friend to the 11 D A because I 1 know there 1 are a boroo oine of the members possessed I 1 I 1 I 1 of bright talents and they aro ara gen n tiemen and ladies indies whose
