It is hoped graduates and former members of the staff of the hospital will feel free to make use of hospital facilities, and will regard the Hospital and Nurses Residence as their head- quarters during their visit in Seaforth. The public, too, is cordially invited to visit the Hospital and examine the ar. rangements any tune after 11 a.m. each morning. M.

Gordon Carnochan, of Eloise, Mich., and Mrs. Myrtle Cainoclran, of Wayne, Mich. One of the features of the Monday program during reunion is a game between the famous 1932 softball team, which went into the -Ontario finals, and the more recent teats, )headed ,by Bill Snaith, and Bill O'Shea. Among the players of the '32 teant who will be back are Jack Wright, of Sarnia; Ted Taman, of Listowel; Gordon Rennie of Sundridge, and Bill Qudmore, of Toronto. Tom Beattie, who managed the 1932 leant, is looking after arrangements. Despite repeated denials, Re- union officials learn that there are still groups and individuals who are under the impression that fees are being charged in the event that a church or •so- ciety serves meals in its own quarters during the reunion. This, of course, is incorrect. The Reunion Association has no authority to charge any fee whatsoever, insofar as the serv- ing' of meals in churches, etc., are concerned. On the other hand, there is a desire that as many as possible make arrange - molts to serve meals, because With the - crowds that are ex- pected, there may well •be a shortage of meal accommoda- tion. Likewise, there is no tax or fee or license payable insofar as the rental of rooms is concern- ed, reunion officials point out. There is a considerable demand for accommodation for reunion. visitors and the interest of -the association is only' in seeing that accommodation is provided. There is no charge involved in listing accommodation with the billeting' committee, nor in the event that visitors are accom- modated there is no percentage payable to the association of the rent which is collected, Persons with accommodation available and who would be willing to provide accommodation for re- union visitors are urged to get in touch with B, F. Christie or Dr. J, C. MacLennan, of the billeting committee, Writing from London, Doro- thy and Bart Shaw, of 442 Ade- laide St., say: "We are very pleased to say we intend to be there. Your program is very in- teresting, Wishing you every Success with the reunion." • For those who watt to stay tip late at night during the re- union days, arrangements have been made for a; street frolie to get under way each night be- tween 12:30 and 1 o'clock. Jit- ney -dancing will take place on the street between Main Street and Victoria 'Street, with music by the Swing Sextette, featuring Doris Johnston, Queen of the Marimbas, and the Three Larks. Dances will be five cents each, Arrangements are in the hands of a committee headed by Geo. Hildebrand, - Mrs. 3. M. Goyenlock is look- ing forward to a visit from her brother, W. T. Plays, of Regina, who is conning to the Reunion. Mr. and Mrs. L. A, Fleming, of Simcoe, send thanks for in- vitation and hope to. be here. Mr. Charles Clark; of Aylmer, a former resident, and Mrs. Clark are looking forward to spending a couple of days at the Reunion. Mr. Jack Stephenson, with Ogilvie Flour Mills 50 years ago, sends good wishes for the Reunion and would like to re- new the scenes of his youth, but ill health will prevent him from attending. "Thank you very much for the invitation to the Reunion. 3 will not be present for all the days, but will try and be there for part..It has been interesting to read all the literature and hear of the progress the com- mittees are making. Wishing you a most Successful Reunion celebration, and please put the enclosed into the treasury,"— Mrs, Hudson Woodruff, Box 80, St. Davids, Ont. 'I want to' thank you for the invitation to enjoy the Reunion hut regret I can not be there to have the pleasure of meeting many old friends, especially Mr. and Mrs. Russell H. Sproat, with whom I stayed when you had your celebration in 1914, or am I correct in the year? Hope all who attend have a very happy time.—" Mrs. Harry (Margar- et) Buttery, 2028 Green St., San- Francisco 23, California. "Thanks very much for the invitation to your Reunion. I intend to be there some time the last week in July. I am looking forward to having some of the good basswood- honey, also eld- erberry pie. It's such a long time since 1 have tasted it. There are not many of my fam- ily left now, and 1 would like to meet old friends and see the old homes again. Please don't have it too hot; we are used to cool nights on the Pacific, ' Wish- ing you every success.—Bello Lewis lnee Farquharson), 3249 Kathleen Ave., South Burnaby, B.G. "I wish to express my thanks and appreciation for your kind invitation to attend your jam- boree from July 30 to August 3, but regret exceedingly I will be unable to attend, but hope those who are there will have a very happy gathering. Nothing would thrill me more than to at- tend roll call at S.C.I. and meet the members of the class who graduated in 1907. I paid. a short visit to Seaforth in June of last year, but did not have a chance of meeting many. whom I knew, but had I known that the big reunion was being held this year I would have postpon- ed my visit for another year. While I can't be with you all in person. I will certainly be there in spirit, and I wish one and all a very happy get-together". 3. Wilson Berry. "It is a long time since I spent three of the most interest- ing years of my life attending the Seaforth Collegiate. I still have happy memories of Mr. Harstone ('Little Jack), Mrs. Clarkson, and especially of -that fine woman, Mrs. Kirknman. Other teachers, like Mr. Hagger- ty, Mr. Carruthers, George Au- Berson, Charles MacKay and Mr, Govealock are well remembered for their good work. "Twelve miles from Seaforth, I went for very welcome week- ends to my home when this could be managed, Taking teach- ing as my profession, attending Model School at Clinton and Normal School at Ottawa, then carne West and taught several years in Medicine Hat. After my marriage we lived over 20 years in Manitoba, then return- ed to Medicine Hat, with its ad- vantage of fine climate and na- tural gas — a very desirable place to live in. Population now 20,000 and ever increasing. Very best wishes for a happy reunion program." — Mrs. Sid- ney Ransom (nee Janet Morri- son), 211 -5th St. 5.11., Medi- cine Hat, Alta.
