Now may you have a fine pool for next summer. Here in California we swim all year."— ELLA W. KIRKBEY. Los Angeles, California. "Before I forget again. this is just a small donation toward the pool but may help form a little ripple. I surely enjoyed the Old Boys' Reunion. as did thousands of others. Best wishes to all and good luck with the pool." — MARY I. (Haigh) DAVIDSON. 10 Bettina Ave., Hamilton. Ont. "Enclosed is a small contribu- tion to the Lions Club Pool. I had many a happy time there myself when I was a kid. Best of luck." —BORDERN MERNER. 2125 E. River Rd., Minneapolis. "Your Old Boys' Committee sure- ly did a fine job in arranging for the Old Boys' Reunion. It was a real treat to see our old friends again. Your efforts to provide a park and pool for the community is equally worthy of genuine ap- preciation by all concerned. I am enclosing $5.00 as my contribution. It was unfortunate that the weath- er for the Reunion was so hot that you could not collect the revenue you had a right to expect from the various activities that were so well planned for the occasion. With best wishes for the success of your committee in the Swimming Pool campaign." — A. M. WOODLEV, Ridgeway, Ont.

May God bless you in your community effort." — REV. MORGAN WIL- LIAMS, D.D., Executive Secretary Methodist Foundation. 77 W, Wash- ington St., Chicago 2, Ill.

"Mrs. Cole and myself received your folder relative to the Seaforth Swimming Pool, and we take plea- sure in enclosing a small cheque for $5.00 towards your objective, and we certainly wish you every success. With regard to the Old Boys' Reunion of August last, need- less to say we had a remarkable time and met numerous friends and acquaintances of long ago. The amount of work that was accom- plished by the various committees must be highly commended, and both my wife and self figured that you did far more than your share. We are getting up in years and may not see the next celebration, unless you decide to have another one, say in 10 years' time.
