SPEAKERS.
The Committee on Speakers have

if either one of them should come,
their brilliant oratory will fully re-

them:

No Booths, Lemonade or Cake
Stands will be permitted on the
grounds, nor will any wagons or bug
gies be permitted to enter the en-
closure, as the Board of Regents
made that part of the order when
they granted us the privilege of the
grounds for our Picnic and Reunion.
1t is to be hoped that the veterans
of the immediate vicinity will bring
baskets full of "Beans, Filth and
Hard tack" in order that we may be
able to provide bountifully for our
"chums" from a greater distance.
