The society separated after having spent a very delightful evening. It is planned to hold a meeting every two weeks, and it is expected that they will be a source of great benefit as well as pleasure.
The Societies To-Night.
We propose to give every week a list of society meeting, with their programs. This will be a convenience we believe, and will enable everybody to choose what suits him best without having to pore over the different bulletin boards.
