sing the old songs together again.

Your wife or husband may not be a K. U. Alumnus but bring her or him to enjoy
this meeting with you. Bring your children too who are old enough to be in-
terested in college to see the motion pictures of the school you attended,
meet your classmates and hear the K. U. songs and the old ROCK CHALK. You
can be assured of a grand time.

this dinner is being served in a private club it is necessary to know at once
how many will attend. If you cannot come mail the card with a word for us
anyway. Please pay our treasurer pro-tem for the dinner as soon as you check
your coat so that we can sit down promptly at seven. At the same time we vA
will pin a card on you with your name and class.

NOTE TO ANN ARBOR ALUMNI.- Ann Arbor has its own Alumni Association and will
have its own annual meeting, but Ann Arbor alumni are invited to attend our
Detroit meeting too if they can get down. We have sent a copy of these bul-~
letins to our distinguished class mates in Ann Arbor believing that they
might contain some items of interest to them.
