THE LAST HOT DOG — Most youngsters in the Lucan area probably
had very little appetites Saturday evening when they arrived home for
supper from the annual sports day sponsored by the Lucan Lions club.
They consumed a total of 3,000 hot dogs and Christopher Avery is
shown getting the last one from booth helper Don Black. T-A photo

Friday evening it was our
pleasure to entertain the
Provincial Champion
Lucan-Ilderton Jets and their fair
ladies. From all appearances it
was quite apparent the Champs
were enjoying themselves. The
Comrades of Good Old 540 were
honored indeed to have the
opportunity to express their
gratitude to these fine athletes.

Sunday afternoon I had the
opportunity to visit the Anglican
Young Peoples Coffee House in
the basement of the Parish Hall,
Lucan following its official
opening and dedication. It was a
sight to behold, the kids sure did a
wonderful job and are to be
congratulated.
They asked that 1 say "thank
you very much" to those kind
citizens who donated furniture to
them in answer to last week's
column, and, it ma de me feel
good also, because now I know
some people are reading my
column.
IN MEMORIAM
Our Beloved Comrade
BERT FARMER
1895 - 1970
WE WILL REMEMBER HIM
Following Comrade Bert
Farmer's attendance at the Old
Sweats Night recently in the Sea,
Land and Air Lounge of 540 he
presented to the Branch, the
Shillelagh he had with him at the
time — the Shillelagh is now
hanging in an honored spot in the
lounge in honored memory of our
departed Comrade. * * *
Now that the summer holidays
are with us, even though they are
still a little chilly, here is a good
method to test your life jackets to
make sure they are safe: Put the
life jacket on making sure that the
side marked 'front' is over the
chest and that all fasteners and
tapes are secured firmly. Then lie
face down in the water,
preferably off the beach where
you are not beyond your depth,
and let the body go limp in a
`deadman float'.
If the jacket is properly
designed and still retains its
buoyancy, the wearer should be
automatically turned on his back
with the face held out of the
water. If this does not happen,
discard the jacket and buy a new
one. It is inexpensive life
insurance.
