 A motion was immediately made that Q picnic be given at East Lake park tomorrow, Friday; not the usual kind of a picnic. but one that would extend from r. o'clock, noon, until far into the little hours of the next morn ing. There should be lots to eat in great variety. and there should be several opportunities for eating. The Indian school band should be hired to rest the unstrung nerves of the lady clerks, with soothing notes in three four time during both the afternoon and evening.

 Two committees were appointed. The finance committee is composed of MT Betty. of the Boston Store; Frank Carillo. of the Eastern, and A. R. Volk, of the New York store, chairman.
