evolve ways and means of ensur-
ing that the decorations which will

years. A banner announcing the

Boys' organization in completing
arrangements in the London area.
In a recent letter he says: -'"If
you would care to send me a list
of the names already .on your

fully and perhaps be able to offer
you the odd suggestion."
In the Sarnia district, an Old
Boys' organization is being arrahg-
ed by H. H. Eyre, and he, too, is
checking over, a list of the Sea -
forth Old Boys in that district and
is taking steps to make certain
that everybody who is interested
in Seaforth knows of the reunion.
Writing to the, committee, Mr.
Eyre says: "It was a pleasure
indeed to hear that Seaforth was
once more putting on an OId
Boys' Reunion. I feel that this
will be an outstanding event in
the history of the communit . As
a past resident of Seaforth, d
one who is always interests in.
the home town, it will be a Lea-
sure indeed to accept your invita-
tion to head up a committee at
Sarnia for arranging as targe a
delegation as possible to anew;
your celebration.
"If you will forward a list of
names which you have available
of the Old Boys and Old ,Girls re-
siding in the Sarnia area, I will
be glad to set up a committee -and
stet started on the proceedings."
An' advertisement in the daily
newspaper in Niagara Falls, which
was arranged by Donald Scott,
resulted in a goodly number of
calls from former residents now
living in that area. Mr. Scott told
each of them about the reunion
arrangements being made here,'

der J. C. Crich, is continuing to
evolve ways and means of ensur-
ing that the decorations which will

seen in this district for many
years. A banner announcing the
event will be erected across Main
Street within the course of the

Cliff Hunt iso assisting the Old
Boys' organization in completing
arrangements in the London area.
In a recent letter he says: -'"If
you would care to send me a list
of the names already .on your
mailing list, I will go over it care-
fully and perhaps be able to offer
you the odd suggestion."
In the Sarnia district, an Old
Boys' organization is being arrahg-
ed by H. H. Eyre, and he, too, is
checking over, a list of the Sea -
forth Old Boys in that district and
is taking steps to make certain
that everybody who is interested
in Seaforth knows of the reunion.
Writing to the, committee, Mr.
Eyre says: "It was a pleasure
indeed to hear that Seaforth was
once more putting on an OId
Boys' Reunion. I feel that this
will be an outstanding event in
the history of the communit . As
a past resident of Seaforth, d
one who is always interests in.
the home town, it will be a Lea-
sure indeed to accept your invita-
tion to head up a committee at
Sarnia for arranging as targe a
delegation as possible to anew;
your celebration.
"If you will forward a list of
names which you have available
of the Old Boys and Old ,Girls re-
siding in the Sarnia area, I will
be glad to set up a committee -and
stet started on the proceedings."
An' advertisement in the daily
newspaper in Niagara Falls, which
was arranged by Donald Scott,
resulted in a goodly number of
calls from former residents now
living in that area. Mr. Scott told
each of them about the reunion
arrangements being made here,'
and is keeping in touch to the end
