imp society and the village school lyceum
was great public loss that has been re-
GREETED by the best thinkers throughout

erAry and debating society known as The
Athaneum. The Ulcers are: Pres Prot.

direction. and confidently hope that the
results will exceed the expectations OF the
founders of the society. Bogh Prot. Bos-
