Make Donation Boosting Amount
To $200,00
The October supper meeting of the
Howick Lions Club was held Thurs-
day evening last in Edgar's restaurant,,
Gorrie. A most delightful repast was
aepably served 'by Mrs. Edgar and her
assistants.
A turnout of approximately forty
members was most encouraging, as
this was the first meeting in the Oe-
tober-to-March attendance contest be-
ing staged in Zone 16. Tailtwister,
Ken Edgar, found the smaller quart-
ers somewhat of a handicap as he cir-'
culated among the diners, extracting
fines for every imaginable and uninea.
aginable "offence", but he didn't miss
many bets,
Because of ,the delayed arrival of
Lion Tamer Wardie Schaefer, his as-
sistant, Lion Jim Caley, was asked to.
lead in the singing of a few songs.
Judging by 'The capabilities displayed,
we would say that Lion Jim, a new
member, is definitely an asset to the
club.
President "Mae" stated he bad had
a letter from Lion Bill. Fraser of Lon,
don, enclosing a bill for some gifts
purchased, at the request of President
"Mac", for nine-year-old Marilyn
Timm, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Har-
vey Timm, while she was in a London •
hospital under observation as a polio
suspect. Fortunately, the disease did
not develop and the little girl is now
at her home near Wroxeter-. A letter
of thanks has also been received from
the parents.
Lion Treasurer, Walter Sawtell, re-
ported receipts of $112.36 from the
Tag Day sponsored by the club on
Saturday, October 5th, in support of
the Canadian National Institute for the.
Blind. It was moved, seconded and
approved, that the Club amke a dona-
tion boosting the amount. to $200.00,
which amount has now been forward-

Lion T. J. Schaefer staged a brief
act with his "tame flea", much to the

TOMORROW NEVER 0
COMES - ACT TODAY
Many an executive famous in the
field of business has had a motto hang-
ing on his office wall carrying thes
words, "Do it Now".
Others for whom each clay is crowd-
ed with work to be: done make a mac-
ticesof listing each item to be looked
after during the day, and sec to it that
each listed item is ticked off before
leaving their desks for the day.
Such defensive steps to defeat that
bug-bear, "Procastination", arc found
necessary by most teen and women
who realize that so often the duty put
off until the morrow is never done,
For the average citizen in Canada,
buying a Canada Savings Bond is as
propOsition different than was the pur-
chase of a Victory Bond in war clays.
Because of the unprecedented size and
energy of the sales organization be-
hind Victory Bond issues, very fens
people in the Dominion were left- to
buy entirely on their own initiative.
Sooner or later a salesinati turned up
at the office or at the home and placed
an application before his prospects and
extended his fountain pen for the sig-
eatute.
Salesmen will call on a number of
Canadians in behalf of the Canada Sa-
vings Bond, but thousands upon thous-
ands of those who buy this time will
have to make up their own Minds and
act on their own,
For this latter sizeable group, the
ola'-fashioned motto, "Do it Now" will
serve in good stead.
