trieving a duck and the other a
golden plover. The natural colors
OF the dogs and birds are brought
outin superb and artistic manner,
and make the calendar one of the
richest propositions ever attempted
by that or any other institution.
One of the neatest little Christ
mas cards ever issued is the one

have certainlyswon our grace.
