For the Convenience of Visitors.

There is no reason for any OF the

grounds, and In event It rains it is not
necessary for any Of the visitors to
get in the mud,

walks meant the expenditure of a con-
siderable pile of money. The manage
ment, however. feels that 1t was
valuable investment. for 1t will un
