from that of former years. Nothing in
the way Of races and athletic sports will
be attempted this year but the entire ef-
forts will be devoted to q coaching
parade which will come off New Year 8
day on Orange Grove avenue. The idea
is to include in the parade every kind OF
vehicle which may desire to enter,
four-in-hands, tally hos, floats, double
and single rigs, bicycles, etc., every
thing to be decorated. 1t is the inten.

for the best decoration in the
different classes of vehicles, the ex-
pense of which will have to
be met by private subscriptions. 1t is
not, however, anticipated that there
will be any trouble on this score as q
considerable amount has already been
promised. The decision Of the club to
take this matter in hand again assures
the pushing through of the scheme in u

Professor Cook delivered very in

subject WAS more than one unfamiliar
with the habits of the insect kingdom

ments during the coming winter, OF a
high standard.
