fellow teachers. some went over on
/ Thursday and the rest On Friday. the
party breaking up on Saturday morn
ing. A tallyho coach conveyed num-
Der, the others taking automobiles. The
Lansing place was the picnic headqmar-
ters. A very enjoyable time was spent
in tramping and sightseeing.
/ Yesterdays breakfast of the party
was somewhat diminished. in variety
at least, by a rather coniical incident.
Seventeen eggs in a paper bag had
been left on the lanai over night. In
| the morning all of them had disappear
ed from that place. One egg was found
| smashed upon the lanai floor, this be-
ing smeared with the white but no
trace of the yolk appearing. The shells
of the remaining sixteen eggs were
an inch wide in the end of each. Their
contents had been sucked out. 1t is
supposed that a mongoose-perhaps
several members of the predatory tribe
had purloined the eggs from the bag
one by one and carried them out to
the grass for picnic purposes.
