A president was not at all particular | about how he imposed the fines or for | what offence. For instance members, | who were good enough to wear their own badges did not escape a fine. The president got off a fine lot of jokes and witty sayings in his cross exam- | ination of the various members and this part of the programme was a very pleasant feature of the proceed- | ings. Every Rotarian had to toe the line, | and go down In his jeans to help the cause, and the money was produced | cheerfully. | Rotarian Rex Snelgrove had a very | important part to play about half | time. The president appointed him as an auctioneer, and he was called upon to auction off a "stuffed cat" and knocked it down to "Teddy" Metcalfe for one dollaw. | At the close of the luncheon, the president, on behalf of the club Pre sented the pail of money to Mrs. © Connor, who received it on behalr or the Hotel Dieu, expressing sincere thanks for the kind gift. Mrs. O'Con- nor referred to the fact that the Ro- tary motto was "Service Above Self", | and poinfed that the work of the Hotel Dieu was that of helping oth- ers. | The president returned thanks for had assisted in making it a great Success. Every cent of the money col- | lected in fines was given over to the | bazaar. No member of the club was allowed to escape a fine, and as a: fitting climax, the president was very | heavily fined for allowing the "ses- | sion to go over the usual time for | such events." | MUNICIPAL NOMINATIONS TAKE PLACE ON MONDAY For Mayor In the City Hall and For Aldermen In the Wards.
