Every one has read the adventures
Of Mary and the little lamb that fol-
lowed her to school one day. By
careful system of the flock out of
which Mary's lamb was developed has

to school to recite her lessons to the
kind teacher. This lamb of Mary's

educated lambs in our public institu-
tions fully as attractive and agile and
far more intelligent and wise than the
lambs of Wall street.
Attention is called to the pretty cos
tune worn by Mary. The lamb could
easily recognize Mary by that costume,
especially by the fricassee appearance

into the bank by James P. Gaskill,
Chairman of the Committee on Sports,
as unused money $50, making the total
deposits $1,615. In addition to that
there is between $50 and $50 in the
hands of d. S. Dickerson to be added
