This committee has asked the Civic club and the Commercial club to stand back of them in making all these guests welcome and comfort able. A committee has been appoint ed by the Civic club to solieit avail able rooms for use during these few days. This committee, composed of Mrs. Gentle, Mrs. Cletus Butler, Mrs. Heffiey and Mrs. Chambers, will call upon householders to list rooms for entertainment, so that guests will not have to go over to Independence, as some did have to do last year.

But there is evidenced a desire to prove that Monmouth is a hospitable" town and will heartily welcome ack the Old Grads. It is hoped that available rooms may be placed at the disposal of this committee. Other committees will greet arrivals and take them to head quarters at the Normal, where guests will be assigned and escorted to vari ous homes.
