The Stewards bad this year had many difficulties to contend with , obstacles which they had great difficulty in surmounting , and yet they appeared to have done well . Not the least of these Obstacles was the attractions in connection

with the Centenary celebration of the Girls School , yet they all wished the efforts of tho Stewards for that Charity would be crowned with success . They could not , however , close their eyes to the fact that nny special efforts made for one Institution must prove
