REFRESHMENTS will be on sale and a first-class restaurant will be prepared to serve meals both noon and evening. The Grove has been much improved by the addition of several novel and attractive features and is in first-class condition. We are assured a clean, well-kept park by the fact that the North-western Road has declined to take any Sunday picnics this year, which removes an immense amount of wear and tear on the grounds and fixtures. Come and bring your family and friends for a plesant and healthful day in the country.
