Toronto, over last weekend. Most District P.R.O.s were present and it is hoped. when these dedicated gentlemen return to their respective Districts they will hold like seminars from District through to Zone level. I was delighted indeed to have been able to take an active part in the program and our Provincial Public Relations Chairman Comrade Charles Moon of Chatham is to be congratulated for the excellent agenda, film and material supplied. Comrades we had experts in the field of public relations in the person of news paper editors etc. Meetings such as these cannot help but assist the. Royal Canadian Legion in getting our message of service through to the people of our great Nation. The pot of gold continues to grow and by this Saturday night should be worth around $150.00 — All that is necessary to win Comrades is to personally place your name in the register provided. Comrades and friends your ways and means chairman has been working hard trying to come up with ideas for your en- tertainment and you want to believe me when I tell you he has a couple of dandies coming up — never fear when the time is right we will let you all in on what's taking place — just be ready for it.
