your paper and ' souvenir book
many tunes with interest. It
brought back theyears-to see
photos of Malcolm Campbell,
James Somerville, Walter Tre-
leaven .6r, and Steele Murdoch in

wonderful and,was, going to speak:
to her husband about it
May 1 make. a • suggestion for
the future gatherings! of . this
kind? To drake if easier • or old
tinge, visitors • to meet with, others
resident in .. tpwn at the same..
time; why .riot, have a gathering
where the years of residence or
departure . can be easily 'ascer-
tained, say a corner :of the table
Where "1900w as prominently
displayed, and. others ; ,about ten
years apart. There visitors would
be "dated" and . residents ' or' other:
visitors would have 'a good idea
where . to, look for , old .acquaint-
antes, instead 'of, trying to locate::
the few aniong so rnany.,
