Move Started on Presidents
Report on Toronto
Convention.

Music as a nee. in club life as shown
in the international convention of the
kiwanis club at Toronto was the
theme Of the report on that session
given by Claire Flint, president, at the
luncheon meeting of the Great Falls
organization Monday at Hotel Rainbow
Mr.. Flint emphasized the musical
features of the convention and urged
that the Great Falls club follow the
lead in obtaining better support for
music at its meetings. As n of the
first steps, he announced the organiZa-
ton of the club choir. TO include all oil

talks on a wide variety Of subjects.
In broadening the effects of the or
ganization, Mr.. Flint called attention
TO the classification of agriculturistS
and urged hat two dirt farmers be
added to the club as members to link
its work with the farming interests.
He suggested that some get-together
movement, such as formed in other
clubs for community dinners and the
like, might be used to unite these in
t%erests.
The most significant change in the
constitution. he reported, was the
forming of associate memberships,
whereby a member changing classified
ton or moving to another town. might
apply for the associate membership and
would succeed to active membership
when a vacancy occurred in his CLASH
ficatiOn.
