First Excursion July 8.
The committee on excursions made
a full report and 1t was decided to run
the first excursion to the Pajarito
Park on July 2, A and 5. The number
to participate has been limited to for.
ty. Tents, teams and comissary will
be supplied by the Society. A com.
mon table will be served and cooks
and guides will be taken along, three
members having volunteered to serve
as guides. For future excursions
guides will have to be paid In conse.
quence of these arrangements, the
cost to each member will be only $3.50
for the three days trip to the Alamo
Canon and side trips to the Otowi and
the Tsankawi mesas, and into Bear
and other nearby canons, under thou
sands of caves and com
munal dwellings,. The entire
trip will be made overland
The camp will be established at q
spring in the Alamo Canon and there
six tents will be pitched. Several OF
these are to be permanent and will be
permitted to remain for future excur
sions. 1t was resolved to extend to q
limited number of persons, not mem
bers of the Society, the opportunity tc
accompany the excursion. To these
the cost will be $40 per person, cover
ing team hire. meals and shelter fol
the ladies'. This is far less than il
would cost tourists for team hire
alone, not to speak of guides, meals
and shelter. As extensive prepare
tions are necessary to make the ex
cursion a success, it ws resolved that
every person who desires to accom-
pany it, be he member or not OF the
Society, should register nis name with
Postmaster Paul A. i. Walter before
the next meeting of the Society which
will be held on Monday, June 25.
Considerable business of a routine
nature was transacted before adjourn
ment. The old records Of the society
having been mislaid, it was resolved
to publish the names Of members up
on the books of the society at presen
so that old members who have failet
