nounced a skit and Lion Art Irwin
promptly entered carrying a wax mod-
el. After much ceremony and, inter-
view with Miss Torchy La Flame, Lion
Will French was selected to carry on
a conversation. Two other figures
were quickly produced and Lions
Frank Madill and C. H. McAvoy were
summoned to engage the models in
conversation. Three boxes were pro-
duced anti handed to the three Lions
with instructions to clothe the figures
with the dress-es and accoutrements
contained in the three boxes. The .con-
test aroused great amusement and fin-
ally Lion McAvoy was declared the
winner. •
As a closing feature, Lions Dill Con-
nell and Frank Madill showed a col-
ored film of the opening of the hospi-
tal. This proved very interesting as a
number of Lions were evidence. In
the picture, Hon. Russell T. Kelley
was shown cutting the ribbon across
the door when declaring the new wing
open. Someone menlioned that $18000
was still needed so Lion Frank rever-

McKibbon expressed the hope that
everyone had enjoyed the evening and
announced the closing song and roar.

for at least one membership, in the
Hospital Association at a cost of $5.00.
Six year's membership can be had for
$25.00, and Life membership for $100.
You will enjoy your Christmas more if
you have discharged your responsibil-
ity as a good citizen to the extent of
your ability to support this good and
unselfish cause.:
We presume you intend to respond
to this appeal promptly. Many have.
If you have not, do not put it off any
longer. Assure yourself of a Merrier
-Christmas by this act of unselfishness.

LAUNCH CHRISTMAS
SEAL CAVAN
On Monday of this week the Christ-
mas Seal Campaign -was launched in
Huron County, Very cheering news
came from Goderich to give the earn-
paign, an auspicious start when Mr.
James Kinkead phoned, over that the
COunty Council had made a grant of a. -
thousand to the Christmas Seal Fund.
Small blocks of seals have been
made available -at banks and drug stor-

Blyth will be the speakers next week.
The minimum objective set for Hur-
on is $6000 and the Executive of the
Tuberculosis Association is aiming at
$10,000. With the County Council set-
ting the example it is' anticipated that
substantial grants will be voted by all
town and township councils in Huron.
The purpose to which the fund will
be devoted is so commendable, that
nothing other than a generous and
wide spread response should be made,
The X-ray examination of every citi-
zen of Huron County is the best way
known to medical science to secure
complete protection against Tubereu-
loaie, The X-ray clinics will be avail-
