My experience for the past six
months in Montana and Dako,a, says
h. I. Benson, a well known apple
man in the Spokesman Review, has
caused me to realize more than ever
what loss it is to the growers from
a marketing standpoint to have the
consuming public not to know the
kind Of apples they want to eat dur

opened by an address by K Ii. Hart

outlined its work aud told of the

expected to accomplish. Following
this Miss Alberta Staten gave piano

cision was finally given to Raymond
EARLY whose subject WAS Bslzac's "a
Passion In the Desert" and vas
handled by the young man with rare
ability. The v.ieal number on the
program was given by Miss Florence
Hanna, accompanied by Miss Gladys
Hartley. In fine voice, Miss Hanna
sang Dorothy Fosters exquisite little
ballad "ROse il the Bud" with a
charm that was sll too sweet and too
short to suit the audience which in-
sisted on getting more but failed in
the att mpt. With Mrs, ii l. Dumble

convenience of the club house and is
being we'll patronized.

gatta to close up the season sports but
1t has been thought best by the trus.
tees to let this go over till another
year. There have however been ar
rangements made for another cruise
to take place next Friday. The start
will be made from the Club House at
10 o'clock a. M The fleet will proceed
down the west shore around Province

picnic and corn roast will be held. AT.
ter lunch. scratch races will be run,
between the several boats of different
classes. The return to the Club House
will be made according to the desire

season, and don't forget the lunch has
