AS the time for holding the Alumni
banquet draws near, every indication
points to the most successful gathering
ever held under the auspices OF the Alum
nj association. An exceptionally large
number of out-of-town alumni are ex-
pected, and every member in town should
make an effort to be present, as the sue
cess OF such gatherings depends largely on
a good attendance. 1t is hoped that as
many as can arrange twill be at the recep-
ton at the White Front, where Professor
and Mrs. Whitehill, President and Mrs.
Allis and, 1t is hoped, Professor A. l..
Hardy OF St. Johnsbury will welcome their
friends OF Aud Lang Syne. For this.
very attractive musical program has been
arranged. The reception will be followed
by short business meeting, after which
the party will adjourn to Dubois q GAYS
hall, where Caterer Parmenter will have
banquet worthy of the occa-
sion. The program Of the postprandial |
exercises was given last week. Contrary
to the method adopted two years ago, the |
committee has seen fit to invite only grad |
yates, their husbands or wives, as the case |
may be, and the marshals OF the several |
classes. Those going to the reception will |
enter the side door leading to the new
studio, as the front door will |
necessarily be closed. Tickets for the
banquet can be obtained to-day and to-
morrow at the store OF Mr.. L. W. Tewks-
bury.
