mencement exercises, the Annual Banquet will be held at

ering and we hope you will be able to be with us at both the 
meeting and banquet. Our motto last year was “ Nothing 
succeeds like success,” and we had in the neighborhood of 60 
covers at the banquet. We want and expect even more than 
that this time to repeat the good time we had last year. Tick¬ 
ets, four ($4.00) dollars. They can be had from the Secretary, 
or from Dr. Hammerstein, House Surgeon at the American 
Veterinary Hospital. Tickets will be mailed on receipt of the 
money. Covers will be laid only for those who have bought 
tickets previous to March 24, 1893.
