Being visitors night between 30 and 35 attended Gladstone Balderson, Lions President, was in the chair and conducted one of the most successful gatherings the Club has held this year, Mr. K. W. Bergan, District Governor of District No. 37, from .Browning, Montana, was present and gave a, very interesting talk on the subject "Optomist, Pessimist, Peppto-mist.” Mr. 3. 0. Pedersen read the finan­cial statement and gave the total cash on hand of the club to date as $700,00. Mr. Bergan told them now that they had raised this sum of money to be very careful and not let themselves be influenced to sponsor every worthy cause, as that wasn’t the objec of the Club. It’s up to other organizations in the community to also contribute to wor­thy causes. If they took on every worthy movement their funds would soon be depleted.j Magrath Senior Basketball Tear had asked i the Lions to sponsor them and this was re- \ ferred to the executive. Request for $11.00 for a pair of glasses for a needy applicant was granted. Dr. Schreiber reported that there were 30 school children in Magrath who needed glasses right now. At the conclusion of his talk Mr. Bergan said he hoped the Lions would work toward the erection of a Customs’ Office at Del Bonita. He had to go 40 miles extra in getting to Magrath on account of having to report to an - out-of-the-way Customs’ Office. The male quartette - J. E. Harker, Howard Fletcher, Grant Crookston and J. H. Bridge - gave three numbers, unaccompanied. Other visitors, besides those already mentioned, included: Messrs. Geo, Gunning, Welling; 0. R. Blu©el, D. H. Heeler, Percy Smith, Ernest Dalton, Del Bonito; E. M. Ririe, J. C. Robinson, .Fred Stewart, M. R. Heap and Win.
