It will include a skating rink and will be erected directly to the west of the present building. Con- struction starts this summer. In order to help finance the project dances will be held in Bayfield Pavilion every Wednes- day night commencing May 17. Trinity Club Meets The Trinity' Club met at the home of Mrs. Harry Clow on Tuesday evening with Mrs. May- nard Corrie presiding: Arrange- ments were completed for the Daffodil Tea which is being held today at the home of Mrs. Ted Davies. Special speaker for this occas- ion was J. Orlo Miller who gave a most excellent travelogue, "A Trip to Yucatan." Mr, and Mrs. Miller made the trip two years ago while doing research work. Yukatan, he explained, was a peninsula, belonging to Mexico, situated near the Panama Canal, jutting out into the gulf like a thumb, opposite Florida. Mr. Miller held his listeners spellbound while he told of an advanced civilization, the peak of which was reached four thousand years ago, long before European civilization as we know it had begun., No one knows the origin of these peoples. There are many theories which have not been proved. They are highly intel- lectual and keenly mathematical. They developed their own cal- endar based on 360, thousand years of earth, They were the first people to use zero in mathematical calcula- tion. The animals are small here and horses wear license plates on their foreheads. Insects are numerous and large especially the cockroaches. Vegetation is lush but disease abounds. One never drinks water as it is so germ -laden, Mr. Miller told of many amus- ing incidents seen while travelling around the country in a small car. He liked to travel at night as it gave him an opportunity to see into people's houses. At first they wondered where all the small cars which dashed about in the daytime went at night. On their first journey at night they saw the cars in the parlours of the houses along with the re- frigerators. The idea is ,appar- ently that these costly prized pos- sessions should be kept in full view of the family. Yucatan has one night club which covers 125 acres. The speaker said that one could walk about the farm, view the meat before dinner before it was kil- led, bathe in underground cav- erns while it was being prepared, and then enjoy it to the tune of an orchestra, all for the sun of about $3 in our money. Following this interesting ad- dress the club members were eager to hear more and asked many questions about the country. Mrs. Corrie was co -hostess with Pernya.
