I read and showed a little less Hum Cvcn-

small an amount to admit of paying

made it wamlecided that no premiums

to meet, ngain on March 10th. The start

reason why tho society cannot hold a

not to pay any premiums will prove a

unsatisfactory, anil to leave the money
in the treasury puis Ihu society in a con

TlIK Jot'lOML would suggest that the
society could do itself a tiood turn by
presenting each premium winner with a
diploma show ing that fact. The fair of
