afternoon. Mrs. Robinsonss subject was A Personal Glimpse of the Pana- ma Exposition. The speaker analysed her first view of the exposition from the Presidio. situated on high hill, as a great walled city, full of color, against the Background of the blue waters of San Francisco bay. The walled effect Mrs. Robinson discovered was gained by hedge of ice plants, which makes for an old wall, covered with climbing vines. in which arches were introduced at intervals, giving on the grounds proper. The tower of jew- els 435 feet high, the Horticultural palace, the South gardens, Festival hall. the eight exhibition buildings, the avenue of palms. the Massachusetts building and the terrace by the seq were all mentioned in detail and col- ored photographs and prints of the points of interest shown. Mrs. Robin son closed her lecture with a tribute to woman, in which she said that al- though there was no swoman.s building she saw side by side with the work oi man the work of woman, equal to his in every respect
 During the course of the afternoon Miss Mabel Taft rendered several pi- ano solos very pleasingly. The meet ing was adjourned on motion of the president at 4.45.

They will have an informal meet ing before that time, however, but 1t is unlikely that the appointments will be made before next week, with the possible exception of the personal tax enumerator, whose duties call for early performance this year.
 In the matter of the tie vote for member of the board of relief for one year. it is possible that the selectmen may appoint someone to hold the po- sition until a meeting is held to elect to that place. as the statutes give them that right. However, they will un- been changes in the laws in this re- gard. and the right action is not very definite.

The company's kind ness. which is highly appreciated by the students and the public, will give greatly improved facilities for the con- duct of the games and for the conven- fence of the spectators. and will possi- bly result in larger attendance and more interest in football than has beer shown in some years in Willimantic
