NOTES i Just as a reminder Brothers, 1 this is Table Conference night. | Come out and experience an ex-1 Ailarating evening of discussion: find exchange of ideas. You'll lend ; aupport and encouragement in the j rork of your council. All mem-' bers should attend. i Nov. 10 is set aside- on our1 social calender ^to pay -honor to the clergy. Because of the length of the program the regular meet- ! ing will start at 8:15, and it should adjourn by 9 o'clock. Our lecturer. Gene Dobyns. has been scouting up eome professional talent to amuse us, and having had a peek at the plans, we cati Vouch for a fine time. This -uect-( ing has been arranged to entertain the priests from the surrounding territory With the idea, W acquainting them with the workings of our order, and to promote their interest in our council. With that thought in inind we ask as many as'possible ot attend and help to give our' Siests a sociable evening. Tell em Wio you are, shake their Hand and introduce them to'some: other Brother Knight. If we do these things, the success of the ; affair can't miss. Well sir, we went over to the McHenry Recreation last Tuesday evening to pay the bowlers a visit. It's a mighty fine bowling league they have now, and it's all filled tip too. Why not drop over some Tuesday night and pay the boys a visit. They will be glad to see you. Sometimes there is an opening and you might fill in. A long long time ago we asked a fellow for some bowling instructions and he said, "After picking out the best ball, run and stand in front of your favorite alley, thus giving no one a chance to bowl there. Before you throw the ball have your captain call the attention of all the bowlers to your perfect stance. If you make a strike, look around and show a big smile. If you make two strikes, calmly walk over and chalk it up, being careful not to smile this time. If you make three strikes in a row, nonchalantly light a cigarette; even if you don't smoke, light one anyhow. If you get a railroad, study the situation carefully, meanwhile thinking of the go<kl ] time, you had on your vacation. | After you are sure you have j formed a good impression, try and j make it if you can. If you throw the ball in the gutter, grab your log quickly and limp to the bench, growling something about slippery shoes or bad breaks. If you lose a couple of games, complain ta the secretary about the lousy boilers you have on the team. The guy .who makes the most and loudest, complaints is automatically elected secretary for Ithe next season." Brothers, we make no charge for these instructions. They are yours for free.
