LIONS SHOWN MOVIE OF MOKI DIVERSION A Regular Lions Luncheon was held at the Brunswick Hotel on Friday evening last with a fine attendance. Installation of the incoming officers was carried through by Past President Hal MacLean with Past President Stan Hall assisting. Retiring Presi- dent Harley Crawford expressed his appreciation of the fine co-operation he had from the Club during the past year and he welcomed the new officers and wished them every success for the new year. Lion Frank Madill held the spot- light for the evening. Tailtwister Chas, Roberts called on the Lions to present their gifts to Lion Frank on behalf of the new cub and all the mem- bers lined up and paraded to the head table with their presents, The pres- ents were piled up in front of Lion Frank and he proceeded to open them, This took up his time for most of the luncheon, but he was allowed inter- missions to catch up with his lunch. The gifts ranged from a silver spoon down to a safety-razor with shaving cream. Lion Frank was finally sere- naded by all the -Lions singing "Rock- a-bye-baby." Tailtwister Chas, Roberts caught up with Lions Bill McCool and Wally Armstrong by making them share a fine for bad spelling in the Advance- Times last week. Lion AL Walker was charged with false pretences for having an apparently genuine electric refrigerator in his store without any "works" in it. Guests of the Club were Rev. W. A, Beecroft, Mr. Norman Keating, Mr. Don Jeffs and Mr. Hardy of the Hydro Electric Power Commission. Mr, Beecroft favored with a fine solo number ""Yeomen of England" and Lion Harold V. Pym Presided at the piano. President Harley Crawford reported that the Hospital Board had a repre- sentative present to address the Lions briefly and Lion Wally Armstrong responded on behalf of the Hospital. He briefly sketched the history of the Hospital from the time of its founding in 1907 when the late Dr, Kennedy headed up a group of interested citi- zens and secured the Webster resi- dence. Up to the year 1937 it was carried on by a private group of citi- zens but in that year it was placed on a community basis and annual mem- bership fees of $1.00 were collected and the Hospital Association formed. This membership entitled the holder to a vote at the annual meeting when a representative Board of Directors were elected. • For ,some time it has been realized that the space available was much too limited and the capacity was continu- ally overtaxed, Mr. W. A. Galbraith this year offered the Hospital Board the best X-Ray equipment available as a donation from the John Cornyn Currie Estate on condition that the Board supply a suitable room to house it. A Hawley fracture table had also been included in this offer and the Board . felt that the time had come when serious thought'should be given to a new wing. The Board had plans prepared for a new wing to cost about $65,000 and the first approach had been made to the Huron County Council. The Board was delighted with the fine donation of, $25,000 from the County and now they were 'en- couraged to approach the Town Coun- cil and citizens of the community as well as all service clubs and other interested groups, Every effort will be made to raise the money and he asked for the whole hearted support of the Lions, President Harley thanked Lion Armstrong for laying the information before the Club at this time arid he felt that the Lions would back up the Hospital Board in their planning for the betterment of hospital service in the commtnity. Lion jack MeMbbon asked all the Lions to turn out arid put the Frolic across. Lion Jack lianna introduced a motion thanking Lion Harley and Lion Wilbur Tiffin for their excellent services during the past year, This was ably seconded by Lion Otto Gallagher and met with tthanimotis approval of the Club. The. Lions also showed their approval of the fine luncheon to Mrs, Preildent Harley introduced Mr. BELMORE The Missionary meeting of the United Church will be held this Wed- neseday at Mrs. Roy Gowdy's. We .notice that the Rev. Raynor, a much loved pastor of Belmore and McIntosh churches, now of Rothsay, will leave for Manitoulin Island, The members of the Women's Insti- tute, held their meeting Wednesday afternOon at the home of Mrs. Scott Inglis. The War Workers joined them making a gathering of around 40, Each group gave a report of their work. The meeting opened in the usual way. The main feature was an ad- dress by Mrs. Rev. Hewitt on her trip to England, accompanied by views. The ,children of Inglis school were ;the songsters. A plendid paper "If she practices what she preaches" was giv- en by Miss Isabel Zinn. "How girls can help in the home." Roll call— "What place I would like to see and why," All did justice to the lunch, the young ladies doing the catering. The meeting was Closed with God Save the King. The heavy rain Friday gave the men a rest, and cooled the air for the picnic Saturday on the Metcalfe brothers lawn. This was largely attended and old and young joined in the sports, led by the Rev. Hewitt. A tug-of - war between McIntosh and Belmore was keenly contested with McIntosh the winners, but we noticed some of them on their knees. Nelson Hunkin had the booth and this with a boun- teous lunch topped off a very happy afternoon. Mr, Clayton Edwards has finished sawing and will move his' outfit to Kincardine. We will miss the hum of the mill. Mr. Bumstead is a very ,husy man and is adding an addition to his chop- ping mill. Visitors in the village, Miss Sadie Mulvey of Fergus, with Betty Hunkin; also friends from Exeter, Sunday. The Misses Stokes visited at their brother Isaac's one day last week, and Sunday at the Longley home. Mrs. Thos, .Abraham and Miss Muriel have returned from their trip Hardy of the Hydro Electric Power Commission and expressed the ap- preciation of the Club to Mr, Don Jeffs, of the Local Hydro for arrang- ing Mr. Hardy's visit, ;MT, Hardy proceeded with a showing of th4 color- ed sound picture the "Ogoki Develod- ment", This proved to be extremely interesting and the beautiful coloring of Northern Ontario stood out bril- liantly. The picture proved very edu- cational as it showed the results of the fine engineering required in diverting the course of the river so that it would flow down through Lake Nipi- gon to Lake Superior, President Harley conveyed the appreciation of the Club to Mr. Hardy for his time and trouble in coming to Wingham to show his picture. The meeting closed with •the usual song and the Lions' roar, HIGHLIGHTS OF BUDGET The following are the main points of the Budget presented by Finance Minister Ilsley to Parliament Monday, Need for voluntary savings is great- er than ever before due to increased requirements and cessation of com- pulsory savings. The budget has no tax increases. In-laws will qualify as dependent relatives for income tax purposes. All tariffs from farm machinery as well as 10 per cent war exchange tax are removed. Government's cash requirements for 1944-45 are estimated at $6,000,000,- 000 or $200,000,000 more than last year, , Borrowing requirements in 1944-5 will be $3,200,000,000' or $320,000,000 more than last year. Revenues for the present year are estimated at $2,617,000,000 compared with $2,701,000,000 last year, not in- cluding refundable taxes. Expenditures estimates already. be- fore Parliament total $5,152,000,000 or $208,000,000 less than actual expendi- tures last year. This points to esti- mated budgetary deficit of $2,535,000, about $100,000;000 less than last year. Large, unanticipated expenses in most active phase of the war will in- crease cash requirements to $6,000,- 000,000 and Make estimated budgetary deficit unimportant. Tax allowances for children will cover all children dependent on tax- payer including illegitimate children. Provision made for rapid depreci- ation on new assets for tax purposes. Business firms may borrow on the security of the refundable portions of the excess and corporation tax. One half expenditure for mainten- ance and repairs in period to be fixed may be allowed against income of pre- vious fiscal periods in computing corp- oration and excess profits taxes. Period for income tax appeals from members of armed forces extended from 30 days to a year. Losses in any year may be charged back one year or forward three years for corporation or excess profits taxes, BLUEVALE On Sunday Rev. Mr. Tavener, who has been minister at the United Church for the past five years, preach- ed his farewell sermon, There was a large congregation present for the oc- casion who wish him every success in his new charge at klolesvalle. JAMESTOWN On Wednesday evening of last week, a social evening was held in the school at No. 4, Grey, in honor of Miss Margaret Beattie, who has taught there for the past two years.
