mer outing trip to Knowlton's Land,
ing. P. G. having chartered the
steamer Yioco for the trip. The
members Of the circle with several
invited guests will spend the day at
Knowlton's, starting from Newport
at a. m.
The financial success of auto day
leads the civic association to plan for
a motor boat day to be held in the
near future. Probably many more
people could have an outing in this
way than by auto, as the rates can be
made within the reach of everyone
and there are plenty of boat owners,
who no doubt will be glad to contrib
ute the use of their craft for so
worthy an object.
