LIONS .CLUB FOR SEAFORTIL
Under the direction of Mr. Arther
Brookwela representative of the In-
ternational Assoelation of Lions
Clubs, thirty-five 'business and .pro-
fessional sten met at the Queen's
hotel on the evening of Tuesday,.
Dec. and, A splendid 'supper was
served' and community singing to-
gether with some fine selections from
the 'Seaforth Male Quartette resulted
in a very enjoyable evening, Col;
Charles M. R. Graham, D.S.O.; of
London, Ontario, immediate Past
District Goyernor for the Province.
of Qatar.i°, gave the prineipal' ad-
dress of the evening. He aroused
much interest and enthusiasts by
drivelling 'on the international aspects
of Lionism and their ultimate and in-
evitable results in the commenities,
'He was followed by Mr. Arthur
Brookweli, who dwelt on the local
aspects of a Lions Club and outlined
the method ,of procedure for organ-
ization. Responses were evade by the
following focal men: Rev. Dr. Larkin,
J. 'Wesley Beattie; W. J. 'Duncan,
Rev. T. H. Brown, and Dr. Mackay:
Upon motion made by Mr. James G.
Mullen, seconded by Mr. John Mac-
Tavish, it was unanimously decided
to go ahead and perfect organization
at the earliest possible moment. The
charter tittota has already been se-
cured and Mr, R.. M, Jones appoint-
ed temporary Secretary -Treasurer to.
serve until Such time as'permanent
officers are elected,
The club will meet again •in the
very near future tocomplete organ-
ization, elect officers and make ar-
rangements for the formal presenta-
tion of the charter. Member's of the
Goderich Lions Club were in at-
tendance at this meeting and a wire
of congratulation and encouragement
was received front the Wingham
Lions Chub. Hearty votes of thanks
were expressed to all those who par-
ticipated in making .the evening one
of the most enjoyable ever 'held in
the town, after which the National
Anthem was sang and the meeting
arljonnted.
NEW WELL TESTED.
The new well which was sunk. by
Mr. Wm, Hopper last winter as an
auxiliary to the two already in use,
was tested out again last week by
means of an air pressure system
which Mr, McKay .has installed him-
self for the purpose. A pipe is in-
serted in the well to a considerable
depth. This pipe is connected with
a pressure tank into which air is
forced by an air compressor, which i
last week was. operated by an ordin-
ary Fordson tractor, With this
simple outfit the new well was made a
an discharge into the reservoir at the
rate of 240 gallons per minute, which
is over double the capacity of the
two pumps now pumping from the
old wells. It is believed that the well
is capable of producing very much c
more than this amount, if necessary.
Those who saw the new outfit in s
action -feel the town is to be con-
gratulated on having such a splendid
supply of first-class ivater art hand h
ready for any emergency. .lir. Mc-
Kay is also to be congratulated on
his enterprise and acumen in adopt- h
ing a system which has done away
with the necessity of purchasing an h
expensive pump.• J
