PRESS CLUB INITIATES CULMER
AND PRESENTS A LOVING CUP

newspaper men. Mr.. Culmer was sur
prised by the presentation Of the loving
cup In a very pretty speech Of pre-
sentatiOn PaTson Simpkin called atten-
ton to the many kind things Mr.. Gull
mer had done for the Press club. TO his
untiring efforts to assist the progress
Of the club in every way possible, and
finally to his brilliant achievement in
making real actors out of the bunch Of
raw recruits who took part In The
Bungle," the direction of which occu-
pied much of Mr.. CUlmers time.
Mr.. Gunner was so taken by surprise
at the presentation that it was some
moments before he could speak. He
was visibly affected by the unexpected
token of the gratitude and apprecia-
ton of the members Of the club
He said that he felt the more the
double honors bestowed on him By the
club because its members were news

veneer of the demagogUe, whose shafts
Of satire pierced the mask that hid the
hypOcrite. and whose expressed
thoughts were d prime factor in the
force of intellectual thought of the COM
munity. He closed his little talk with
an expression Of sincere regard for
every member Of the club and of his
best wishes for the future OF the organ
izatiOn.
The club then sang Aud Lang

was served, which was followed by an

One of the prettiest little affairs in
Press club history was the presentation
last evening of a silver loving cup to
II. L. \. Culmer. 1t was merely an in
formal gathering Of the newspaper men
and other members of the Press club,
but the sentiment expressed in the be-
stOwal and acceptance OF the little
token of esteem was something that
will make the affair long remembered.
The invitations to the affair, formally
printed on a postal card, announced
that il was TO be links" for THE

they were most enjoyable. The mem
bers Of the Press club and the guests
OF the evening assembled in the club
rooms shortly ater 9 o'clock and were
called 10 order by Parson Simpkin. vice
president Of the club.
A feature of the evening was the
initiation Of Mr.. Culmer as an honorary
life member of the Press club. Such
limitations are seldom had in the Press
club and are most impressive. The
initiating officers were Rev. P. A
