LIONS CLUB HELD
ENJOYABLE NET
The Program Took the Form of A
Children's Christmas Party
A. regular Lions luncheon was held
at the Queen Grill on Monday evening
with the Christmas spirit very much in
evidence, Lion Tamer Jack Reavie led
in the singing of many of the old
Christmas carols. At the request of
President Jack McKibbon, Taitwister
Wally Armstrong took charge of the
program and after reciting the lines,
"Backward, turn backward oh time
in thy flight, make me a child once
again just for tonight"
he proceeded to call upon various Lions
to come to the front and recite poems
dealing with many phases of Christ-
mas time. Lions responded heartily
and went through many of the antics
of childhood days. Each recitation
was accompanied by the usual bow and
in some cases fear was expressed that
Lions might overdo it and bow to low.
The following Lions"'contributed to
the impromptu program: Bob Hob.den,
Bill Bushfield, Don Nasmith, Hal Mac-
Lean, Bill Galbraith, Wilf French, Doc
MacLennan, Clarence Richey, Cliff.
McAvoy, Cecil Merkley, Charles Rob-
erts, Harley Crawford, and Ron Rae.
The outstanding feature was the poem
!The Tie that Blinds" by Wilf French.
During the intermissions in the reci-
tations, a quartet, Messrs. Haselgrove,
Ross, .Merkley and iGammage gave
a lively number, "Jingle Bells".
At another point in - the program a
quartet composed of Lions Jack Me-
Kibbon, Howard Sherbondy, Bill Mc-
Cool and guest Rae Thompson offered
the carol "Joy to the World". • Lion
Tamer Tack Reavie offered as a solo,
"It Came Upon the Midnight Clear".
The program was completed by all the
Lions joining in the singing of "White
Christmas".
President Jack McKibbon announc-
ed that the Lions had been invited to
offer their Carol singing as a CKNX
program on Christmas day from 5 to
5.30 and it was agreed that this be car-
ried out by most of the Lions.
Mr. Sam Burton, Recreational Dir-
ector, who was a guest of the club out-
lined a program of sports which he
hopes to conduct during the Christmas
week. Lion Don Nasmith explained
the situafion in regard to hockey teams
and felt that the Lions should back up
the Midgets and the Girls Hockey
teams as they had no sponsors up to
the present. The Lions agreed to spon-
sor these two teams.
President Jack reported that a rep-
resentative of the Department of
Health had been in town last week and
had taken up the plan of holding an
x-ray examination for persons who had
been in contact with tubercular per-
sons or otherwise exposed and it was
felt that 15 to 20 people could be ex-
amined every month at Wingham Gen-
eral Hospital. The cost for film would
amount to about $2.00 per person and
the Lions agreed to absorb this charge
for all persons until such time as other
plans could be made. This, of course,
would not interfere with the mass
Chest Clinic to be held next summer
for all persons.
The report of the Directors meeting
pointed out that contact had been made
with the Skating Club of Kitchener-
Waterloo with a view to having their
'instructor come to Wingham and give
instruction kora time to time. Furth-
er information was expected shortly on
this matter,
The shipment of holly from the Van-
couver Lions Club arrived and all the
Lions received a package of fresh holly
which was very much appreciated. All
the Lions wore a sprig of it in their
buttonholes during the meeting and
the proceeds of the sale were turned
over to the British Columbia Hospital.
