The ma chimes will pass through the Normal campus. where it is expected the stu dents will be lined up to greet them. and going on down Eighth street. they will meet with similar reception from the high and public school students.
 The visitors will all leave the ma chimes at the Casa Loma. where the business men of Tempe will be in waiting. A moment will be allowed for the travellers to dust themselves and have drink of ice water after their ride.

 A big banner bearing the words.
