There are five main objects ects which the Association will foster, and it is pleasing to know that men of influence have promised to take up the work in an energetic way, as follows: 1. Maintaining the water in the Lake at a proper level. 2. Keeping the channels open to navigation. '8 Controlling the weed growth in so far as is possible and wise. 4. Securing to Lake Scugog a good fish supply. 5. Publicity.

The Association is to be incorporated; and membership will be open to all who wish to further the improvement of Lake Scugog. The annual membership fee will be $1.00. -- -Persons who are familiar with the work to be done, will readily see that this movement must be continuous; that it will need general support from all the communities that surround the lake; and that expert advice will be needed, so that the efforts for improvement that are made shall not be misdirected Among those who were either present at the initial meeting of the Association, or who promised to s! on rt the work, are the following: Mr. H. S. Osler, Mr. A. R. son, Mr. F. A. Kent, Mr. Russell Nesbitt, M.P.P., Mr. Maidlow, Mr. J. H. Caster, Mr. John' Stacey, Mr, A. G. Storie; Dr. Duck, Mr. Robert Naylor, Mr. J. K.

These three will spell success for us. Mr. Jas. McKee has shown us*what can be done with our Port Perry shore line. The editor went with him all along the lake edge and we are convinced that what has been done immediately in front of the station could, without excessive expense be carried out in a few years right around to Curt's Point. It is a matter of getting at the job. The difficulties will disappear if we really go after the work. The same thing has been shown by Mr. F. A. Kent and Mr. A. R. Wilson and others.
