Thursday last With an ofianization' of steady workers that would dg credit to vet- erians, arid the public showed by their support, they appreciate the work being done 'by the Lions. During the day the Olympia, which had been placed generously in the hands of the Lions for the day, was the 'centre of attraction, where their celebrated home made confectionery was dispensed. In the evening din- ner -was served to about 400 guests. It was a revelation to many of 'the Lions wives to se's 'how expert' their husbands were in waiting on tables and how deftly they handled the dishes. These men are now finding it difficult •to live clown 'this reputation at their homes as no longer are they able to plead ignor- arice as' of old in handling,dishes, etc. 13y eight o'clock when the Band concert 'started the town and park were filled with visitors from the surrounding country and the -booth on the grounds was patronized so freely that it rah short of supplies before 10 'o'clock. The programme given by the Band was of its usual high order and the members are playing this year better than ever under the able leadership of Mr. Win. Freeman. The following lis a list of the selections: 1. March, "Enter- prise." 2. Address, Mayor Golding. 3. Fantasia, "Bonnie 'Scotland." 4. 'Overture, "Princess of India." 5. Sel- ection, "Offen•bac'hiana" from Offen- bach operas. 6. Overture, "From Dawn to Twilight" 7. Waltz, "Im- passioned Dream." 8. Selection, 'Songs from the OM Folks." 9. March, "Artillery." Cod Save the King. The Mayor in his ,speech spoke 'highly of ;the work being .clone . by ,the Lions. The local club was a real asset to 'the community and he bespoke the continued co-operation in their .projects. At 9.30 dancing in the G. W. V. A. fine club room started and continued until 1.30 a.m. The music was sup plied by the Crescent Five 'orchestra, whose playing was enjoyed by the crowd present. 'The Lions are greatly pleased .with the 'result 'of their first public ap- peal to 'the community, and as they are contemplating further work for the improvement of Sea'forthl they, will, no doubt, receive again the hearty co-operattion of all. The pro- ceeds amounted to $185 clear of ex- penses, - LIONS' BEE AT THE POND. An .opportunity 'has arisen where- by mien: and boys of this locality, who ere physically fit, can prove themselves to Inc'real Bons in spirit even if they are not members; of the Lions Club. The Lions Club have engaged in an effort to benefit this community as a• whole, not any 'particu'lar individual, up be 'the pres- ent juncture. And in cdnnectionwith the swimming pond, as work pro- ceeded, it was learned • that In order to have a permanent succese of 'the undertaking, it is advisable) to re- move great quantities of accurnud- ated earth -wash from the quarry bed, 'build additional stone wall, and do 'other necessary work to obtain a e eto. ' thereto. ' side-wall m and ro, proper bottom p p In ''order to accomplish this at the least' possible 'outlay of money, it has 'been decided to hold a free-for- all, 'ol'd.time working bee this Friday and a'Sturd'ay afternoons. Everybody who can drive a 'team of •horses, use a shovel, swing a pick or 'Mt a heavy stone, is invited' to take a hand in 1925. elle work. If you live on a farm, come •with your team and a wagon and you well lee most welcome. If you have d'arege s'tonesabout the place and bring a wagon load of them, you will be a real hero. Al- ready persons have gladly promised to come with teams and .wagons, but more men and more teams are wanted, 'Perrot s 'front town who will come with shovel's to help fill the wagons to capacity will be hale fel- lows well met Every lion wdto can possibly :spare he time is expected to be on the jou, . Persons who are not members o` the Club 'have a chance to experience on Friday 'or and Saturday afternoons. Everybody practical Lionissp really 'signifies, By all means come and ,take a band in this, importantWork. The 'little you think you can do may be '•far- rea'ching. It at least: will be rendering service to a 'cause Which this com- munity in a very short time will greatly appreciate. And any person who wishes to •en rich this garden soil or improve, !his lawn ;grass should arrange to procure a few loads of earth 'dep'osi't from the quarry bed. It is :excellent and will cat you no more than it costs you to haul it. Lions' Officees. The following 'oflicers were elected on Tuesday evening: President, R. M.
