Being very dollar conscious, Percival enjoyed the excellent meal provided at the Flamingo all the more when his host for the evening insisted on paying the shot. Percival was telling me that he had always considered the Lions Club just another organ- ization where the members met socially and talked trivialities but his attendance at this last meeting discouraged this school of thought. Percival was most impressed at the most dignified manner in which the District Governor-- Lion Ross Oliphant -- installed the new officers for the forth- coming year. The officers of the .club are elected in a most democratic manner and will, this year, be headed by Lion Storey Beare, having taken over from Lion Glen Van Camp. Percival, for instance, was not aware that the playground ed by the Lions Club. He took it for granted that the grass should be cut frequently but did not know that the Lions Club pays the bill. Percival was glad to hear, too that, the swings etc. will be erected very shortly. My friend Percival, was not aware either, that our most re- spected member--The Hon. M. Dymond, as a member of the Lions Club, takes time from a busy schedule, to spend a day at the local public school, test- ing the eyes of our junior citi- zens, This is a humanitarian service, given without thought of gain, Percival, also, was not aware that the Lions Club sponsored the Local Junior grain club and that the Lions Club footed the bill for the grain that produced the crop that won a number of awards at the Winter Fair in Toronto last fall. It was not until this meeting that Percival discovered that the Lions Club paid for the sweaters worn by the Port Perry Pee Wee hockey club. Percival, respecting the con- fidence of the Lions Club, just dropped a hint that the Club's Welfare committee is quite active. He tells me that at no time ever is any welfare case discussed outside the club and that any welfare activity is not a matter of charity but the ex- the time it is needed most. My friend Percival, too, lis- tended with great interest to the plans for the forthcoming sale of light bulbs. He says he's in need of bulbs and will certainly get a bagful when a Lion member knocks on the door. Summing up, Percival consi ders that the Lion Club mem- bers are not just a bunch of good time boys but are devoted to the public cause of service. And Percival says that the Lions Club is most aware that without the co-operation and kindly support of the local resi- dents, the club is nothing, Percival did not know until this meeting that the Lions Club is the biggest service club in the world. According to rough figures, Lions Clubs exist in more than a hundred differ- ent countries and according to Percival, this fact alone must contribute somewhat to interna- tional goodwill. My friend Percival wants me to go to Toronto this summer to see the parades of the Lions International Convention being held there. He says this is an honour for Toronto and will be a sight well worth seeing. I'm going to do my best to go. Sobien Twackle.
