Radio Auction Is Very Successful
Kin Stewart Leedham, chair-
man of the 16th annual Radio
Auction, reported to the Kins-
men Club of Wingham at last
Tuesday's meeting that the Ra-
dio Auction conducted by the
club on Dec. 2 was the most
successful. About $900.00 was
realized which is up several
hundred over previous years.
The items that are auctioned
are donated by local and area
business and professional peo-
ple, and are sold to the highest
bidder.
Dr. Leedham pointed out
that the bidding created much
more enthusiasm, which is be-
lieved to be because of the
earlier starting time. This yeafs
auction started at seven and
finished at eleven fifteen.
The funds raised will be used
by the Kinsmen Club service
projects in the community simi-
lar to the senior citizens' apart-
ments, Riverside bath house,
wading pool, for Boy Scouts and
other worthy projects.
The Kinsmen thank those
who so generously donated and
those who phoned in bids,
CKNX and the Advance -Times
for their co-operation.
