ag ain would sponsor the kid hockey this won derful work which is carried on each winter in the arena will once again be underwritten by brand 120 with the same arrangements and conditions made as in other years some discussion centred over the purchase of a number of dart boards some time ago that had fai led to arrive it was suggested an initiation be held in view of the fact that a large number of new members end been accepted since the last one it was announced that henry shepherd will be marshal of the parade to be held in streetsville at- the district meeting to be held on sunday october 20th a large number are expected to attend front the district some discussion was made re garding the election and it was suggested that nominations be held a month earlier it was explained that this had been the old system but had been changed a number of years ago at a general meeting and would require notice of motion and acceptance by a general meet ing criticism was made by a member of the article appearing in notes in september 18th issue regarding social evenings the speaker felt that the matter should have not been brought up in the paper the writer of the article replied say ing the article had been expressed as his personal views on the matter and had been so headed in that it em it was left to the executive to arrange the armistice dinner to take place on friday november 8 a talk was given on the support of the eye bank and it was deci ded to get blank forms and it was hoped that members could see fit to take part in this great work service after death the working of the eye bank was explained and a number of questions answered the meeting adjourned at 9 30 iwith the closing ceremonies the entertainment chairman and his committee served lunch wont you give our active sup port to the eye bank this is real ly a wonderful project and deser ves every members support the necessary forms arc being procur ed from provincial command one of our standard bearers bob hedley approached us about some thing we didnt mention and that was the time of the parade in streetsville for the dis trict meeting as yet we have no dates but intend to go down to streetsville branch in the near future to get all the details bob kindly volunteered to go and we expect henry will be going down to finalize details of his par ade this is quite an honour for a district meeting does not come too often and it will be a very large parade we expect to have an ex cellent turnout from our rone and if thereare a goodly number we will march as a unit as already two bands in the zone have signified their intention of parading the bu gle band of port credit and the pipe band of oakville unfortunately the imperial mee ting falls on the third sunday the same date as the district meeting this is unfortunate but one of those things that cant be helped and so quite a number of 6ur best attenders at district and zone af fairs will be among the missing this year we made no attempt to approach district to change their meeting as we asked them to put theirs back last year as that was the date that major charles ruth erford vc was speaking in geor getown at the convention this is a difficult problem trying to pick a sunday that is suitable to every one in fact its practically an im possibility regarding the parade if there is the crowd we expect from the zone we intend to ask district coun cil to let us march as a unit and while we think of it wed like an other sergeant major to take charge of the zone part in the par ade we wonder if dave bowman ftould do that chore how about it dave for the benefit of new mem bers dave is steward and was a sergeant major in ww 2 where he got the mm and as a last thought there was no winner in the lucky draw so georgetown finishes

again this was a real idea for setting members out as last meeting was again a large one and we suspect that the lucky draw only payable if you are at the meeting is no small induce ment to bringing the members out we hope that members will see j fit to patronize the bingo for the hospital fund this is a worthy cause and deserves our support the recognized bingo king alex taylor and his merry men will be in charge again so everyone can be sure of a fast properly operated evening of games pleased to see two of our local lawyers taking quite an interest in our meetings both maurice man- derson and john ord were there the other lawyermember george hewson would have been there but made tho mistake of going in to his office before the meeting and promptly goi tied up with business he promises to make it next time though we were pleased to see pat chamberlain have such a disting uished friend in the branch on sat urday afternoon we noticed he doesnt drink or play darts but seemed to have a keen interest in everything wonder if that is the authority that pat and lome were using when they disputed our statement about the cornea we were interested to see the old subject of nominations before the election come up again we al ways had been a supporter of that idea ot a nomination meeting a- month ahead however we were one of a small group dissenting sot well go along that the
