The committee trusts, therefore, that you realize and appreciate the difficulties confronting us in attempting in 1937 a celebration that would be a credit to Minot and its people as hosts. May we, therefore, ask your continued co-operation to the end that when the postponed date is definitely set we will unite in presenting a program of entertainment and events that every participant, worker, committeeman, or woman can justly be proud.
