study and explanation at the mornings
devotional hour. Difficult chapters. in
the sense admitting Of different inter-

clear analytical style in which this pop

meetings are daily growing in interest.
DR.. Charles F. Kent has every reason
to feel proud at the large attendance
and deep interest his bible studies have
evoked in the normal class. His course

msncing with Hosea, and following

have furnished the biblical students Of
his large class abundant material for
profitable and intelligent research.

reviewed with all the minutia OF detail

Garden Macleon, daily gains BY the
accession OF new members. The course

afternoon on the beach, near the old
pier.

house and Point Firman has been ar

people, and other vehicles Of convey
ancs have been engaged. Lunch will be
concomitant, and the excursion will
partake OF the features OF q gala day.

under the Instruction Of such Q master
as Prof. Taylor. His concerts are al.
by all lovers of good music and we all
know how literally they are patronz.,l.

fections OF the people and the fame ni

The system of Calisthenics, Jenness
Miller's, that she has adopted, tends 70
develop all the muscles Of the body. aud
she herself when dressed for action"
and going through the motions is tina
ideal embodiment OF the poetry o n'-

Conchology is receiving the treatment

embryonic ecientists led by that adeps
professor, Josiah Keep. His class ',
so grown that he has found it necsa.rv
to have an afternoon class.
At q. m. this morning In company
with number of his pupils he made q
trip up the beach searching for speci-
mems. Several entirely new ones to the
professor were found, much to his and
the pupils delight.
