Seniors, the big day is almost at hand. On Wednesday the Senior Picnic, the most-longed-for event of the would-be graduate's career, will take place on Mystery Island, which is all that the name implies. At 8 o'clock hundreds of sportive diploma-chasers will embark on the perilous trip to Marine Wharf, via the surface cars. Two steamers will be provided to transport the unruly mob to the island, and the race which these ocean greyhounds will put up will be worth going miles to see.

Among other exciting features of the day will be baseball and track contests between the dormitories.

Tickets at $1.25 a throw are the only necessities for the joyous occasion. These may be bought at Leavitt & Peirce's, Matthews 1, or Thayer 32. The advantages of being a ticket-holder are obvious. In the first place, no one else will be allowed at the picnic. Moreover the following commodities will be furnished to everyone possessing a pasteboard certificate: Transportation to the island,--and back if desired; costume, which may be obtained in Thayer Common Room today or tomorrow; lunch; real refreshments; entertainment.

A pleasant time will be had by all.
