Bali club and Base Bali olob was very
much in evidence in the general oonver-
eabion of the home trip, We hope, if
spared to next year, to take an Exonreion
of double the size bo spend another of
those days in your town that lives in the
memory as au ever enduring delight.
Thanking you again, on bebalf of the
Excareioniate, we are, yours truly,

The Grand Truck supplied a tiptop
aervioe both as to coaches and running
time.—It wae a very proper thing to
have Mayor Roes skip the "Colt'o" rink.
He did it all right too.—No accident oo•
onrred to mar the day's pleasure.—Revde.
Ahey, of Braeae's, and Moore, of Lista•
wel, were the only parsons who favored
us with their oompaay,—A few more
row boats and an additioeal bathing house
with suits would prove very acceptable to
inlanders while arrangements with an
excursion steamboat would be par exoel-
lenoe. The park is well located, easy of
access to the depot, town and lake, and
with its pavilions, ewioge, elevated mats,
waterworke, ie the very handiest plane
imaginable for pic•niekers.—We found
Rebt. W. and Mire. Rots, H. Whitley,
Miss Daniels, Rev. W. S. Rigsby and
other old time friende with whom a
-pleasant time was enjoyed.—The basket

cardiae town Park, in the centre of the
town, is a beauty spot with its green
award, walks, flowers, seats, etc. Chief
Huffman deserves ersiit for the way be

Clark, of the Kiooardioe Review, and
Dr. Stewart, of Paisley, were both on
duty on Wednesday.
