A DETAILED account of the proposed athletic meetings is given in another column, and we wish to urge upon all those who are able to compete in anything of this kind, to enter for the contests. This is the first year in which the new Gymnasium will be the scene of our indoor exhibition and it is not too much to wish that the performances may be a great success. The number of competitors will undoubtedly be far larger than ever before, and the novel feature of having a "ladies' day" should spur men on to excel past records. Besides this, the list of events is more varied and attractive than usual, and offers opportunities for all kinds of athletes. If men will give up the idea of not competing unless they are sure of a prize, we may expect to have a better exhibition, and more credit will reflect on those who win.
