MEETING SOON TO ARRANGE
FOR c. & Il. MINERS PICNIC
PROBABLY WILL AGAIN BE HELD
AT c. & II. PARK. GOOD
PROGRAM.

A meeting is to be called in the near
future to make preliminary arrange
ments for the annual picnic of the c.
* II. miners. Secretary Harry Will
liams, of the miners committee, will
call the meeting.
The picnic OF the c. & II. miners is
one Of the big events OF the summer.
The fact that the picnic is held for the
benefit of the widows ard orphans of
deceased employees of the mining COM
pany is an incentive in itself, and
when it is further taken into consid :
Grafton that the picnic is replete with
interesting features, including all kinds
OF athletic sports. hammer and drill
| contests, and addresses by prominent
residents. 1t can easily be seen why
| the outing is popular.
The picnic probably will again be
| held at the c. & II. park. and Will be
preceded by parade of all of the
miners, headed by local bands.
The hammer and drill contest will
be the big event of the day at the
park.

ANNUAL Y. M. c. A.
CANVASS STARTS
TEN DAYS CAMPAIGN LAUNCHED
TO RAISE $500 TO MEET
BRENT Ex.
PENsEs.

Following a meeting OF association
members with the Y. NJ. <. 4. finance
committee last evening. at which the
situation was Thoroughly discussed. a
ten days campaign was launched to-
day 10 raise a fund Of S2,500 which Il
is estimated will be required in excess
of the associations regular income
from membership fees and other
sources To meet the expense of actiVi-
ties planned Cor the coming year and to
wipe out the deficit of $500 Of last year
The members unanimously decided 20
make this years annual current eX-
pense campaign a whirlwind affair and
from now until Jane :. will exert ev-
cry possible effort to raise the desired
amount.
Tne sixty or more committeeman
last evening were divided into four
teams TO be captained by w. j. Reg
nolds. Capt. Allan Cameron. Or. w. r.
=. Gregg and James ID. James. Work
has already been commenced
The necessity for such a campaign
is Well known by the public. 1t is
recognized that the annual income of
the association from regular sour,es is
insufficient To meet the expense OF the
multiplicity Of activities In which the
association feels duty bound to engage.
The estimated budget for the fiscal
year to close in May. 1913. has been
prepared and has been found TO exceed
the income which may reasonably be
depended upon. by the amount above
stated. The associations members
Will make an effort TO raise this money
before the expense is actually incurred,
so that If they are unsuccessful, which
seems hardly possible. activities may
be curtailed. The officers and members
are now asking the public TO permit
them TO extend rather than curtail the
associations field of usefulness.
