However due to the ad- vent o! radio and better trans-I portation facilities this pleasant annuel event was soon out- deted and finally discontinued in 1934. Continuing ta delve in his- tory Mr. Morrison told of the Club's early fund reising pro- jects. The first of these was a blanket booth i front o! the Agriculture office which was later increased to include a full scele street fain. In the lete afternoon the main street wes cleered and booths erected. 1 During the evening large crowds flocked eagerly ta the feir. Shortly efter midnight the booths were hastily teken down and the street made passable for the next morning. Drama and Music The street feirs and car draws wene excellent money-makers for the club throughout the years but for verious reasons they were dropped and the club's chie! fund raising ectivi- ties centred eround the sale of Easter seals and drame presen- tetians. A recent new venture is the growing o! Christmas trees. Music and sang have been happy factors i keepîng the club together Mn. Mornison pointed out, and throughout the years the club has had many chairs and other singing groups. Over 150 Meînbens The present membership of 1 the club stands et 50 with 3 honourary members. The ex- members o! the club number aven 100 and although they have eithen passed away or moved ta other districts they are still dceply rememnbereri as men who spent freely of thcir talentI and dîd not ibury it. "Tliis after all is the greet challenge of Ro- tary,", he concluded. Charles Carter rounded off the tape reconding pragramn by extending greetings ta the Worthington Club and. stated that through Rotary contact and fellawship men corne La neelize that li.fe cen be well worth living. He added his hopes that a much wider use of tape recording for increas- ing world wide fellowship cen be mede in the near future.
