ADMISSION 25 CENTS, Vingle Copies Five Cents, •CANADIAN CLUB OUTLINES PROGRAM As announced last week, the Wing- ,lbarn Canadian Club will hold the first 4y, meeting of the season in the .Council +Chamber on Friday evening, October :23rd, at eight o'clock, Lieut. Col, E. E. Reilly, London, will discuss "The, Present Economic Situation", As the prevailing depression affects ev- . ery Canadian either directly or indir- 4ectiy; this subject should be of inter - •est to all, and especially to the busi ness men of the town. At the close of last season, the Canadian Club had a membership of -eighty. It is hoped that this year there will be at least one hundred members. The larger the member- -ship, the greater will be the service which the Club can. give to the corn- niunity. The speakers who entertain ,:and instruct .us from time to time of- ten come from a distance and their expenses are heavy. Also, the affil- iation fees, fifty sents per member, which are paid to the Association of -Canadian Clubs entitle us each year to at least four speakers who are sent to us by that organization. If we had ° ' not a substantial list of paid -.up mem- bers, we could not enjoy these ad- vantages, neither could we be assured of our ability to meet the expenses of those speakers whom we ourselves in- •vite, We urge those who intend becom- ing members of the Club to join early this year, if at all possible. By so doing, you will greatly simplify the Work of the treasurer in sending in affiliation fees, and you will enjoy, from the very first, the interesting Programme which is being arranged. We hope to have at least four meet- ings before Christmas, speakers for three of these have already been ob- tained. The first, Lieut -Col. E. Reilly .comes to us on Friday of this week. In the second week of November, Professor Dorland, of Western University, will speak to us on "The. , -New Ireland." On the twenty-sixth .tf November,- Col. David' "Cat negie ''ill lecture on "The World Disarm- ament Conference, 1932." Col. Car- negie is one of the speakers offered to us by the Association of Canadian Clubs' These four speakers will dis- cuss subjects of national interest, and swill be distributed throughout the -ear, two before Christmas, and two after. We are in communication with l,Ir. Dan McCowan, who is known as "'The Naturalist of the Rockies", and who so delighted his hearers last 'fall, -with a view to arranging a date on which he will be free to come to Wingham. The year's programme will include other speakers of note and interest. 10 B.P.

The charge will be only twenty-five cents and there will be nothing extra asked for reserved seats this time, simply exchange your ticket for the reserved seat ticket.

Here again is a cause where the Chamber of Commerce sponsors a program that keeps all the money at home.
