CLUB HOLDS ANNUAL The lack of a game warden... in the Wingham district and the increasing numbers of black snakes on our streams were two of the main topics discussed at the first annual meeting of the Lucknow, Teeswater, Wingham Conservation Club held here in Wing- ham on Friday evening, The same slate of officers were again installed for the coming year, headed by Alex W. Hamilton, of Lucknow, and station agent here in Wingham, Two new zone vice-presidents were elected to fill vacancies, Mr, Attridge, for Luck- now and George Bannerman, repre- senting Teeswater, A bountiful tur- key banquet was held at the Queen's Hotel, prior to the annual meeting at the town hall. "This club has accomplished more in its six months of operations than the separate clubs from each of these towns and townships, have done in a year," stated Mr, Hamilton. Reports from the various vice-presidents re- vealed an amazing amount of work had been done already in that six month period. Officers who were returned to of- fice are: deputy president, Joseph Clark, Wingham; secretary-treasurer, George Orvis, Wingham; zone vice- presidents for Teeswater, Albert Wor- rell, W, J.

King, of Teeswater, replied. A number of suggestions were forth- coming with regard to the elimination of black snakes, which have become a serious menace to fish. The sugges- tions included shoots by a number of club members in the early spring and mid-summer, and the paying of boun- ties to youngsters for shooting them. Mr. John Hanna, MPP, who was present at the annual meeting, spoke briefly to the club members on the part the province was playing in this work. An expert on reforestation work from Bruce County, Mr. Johnston, told how better fishing could be had through the preservation of woodlots, the planting of trees and fire preven- tion, "The streams must be brought back to their natural condition," he pointed out.
