Goes As
Delegate To
Lion S Meet
To Calgary for Annual
District Convention of
Civic Organization.
REPORTS SHOW MUCH
GOOD BEING DONE

Mr.. and Mrs. J. A. Krall
returned Monday evening
from a trip to Calgary, Al
berta, where they had gone
to attend the district conven-
ton of Lions International.
Mr.. Krall went as a delegate
from the Libby Lions club.
Mr.. Krall comes back with an
enthusiastic report of the conven-
ton and the treatment accorded
them by their Canadian hosts. He
states that he and Mrs. Krall had a
most enjoyable and profitable time
and is loud in his praise of the hos
pitality of Calgary people.
''One of the most interesting fea-
lures OF those conventions" said Mr..
Krall, is the high class of men that
one meets" The international presi-
dent of the order, resident of
Texas, was there, having made the
latter part of the journey to Cal
gary by plane in order to arrive on
time. Krall reports that he is a
most entertaining speaker and says
that he gave an eloquent address
stressing what Lionism is doing for
international peace.
The Calgary Lions club is COM
posed of the leading men of the
city, said Krall, and they did every
thing in their power to show the
visitors from the states a fine time
and to make them feel welcome.
One of the leading ladies of the
city threw her magnificent home
open and entertained the visitors
at function at which over 200 were
present. Following the convention.
the host club announced that all
guests would be taken on q trip to
the Banff Springs hotel, one of the
finest hosteleries of the dominion.
The visitors were shown over this
beautiful hotel and dinner was
served to them there, the entire ex-
pense being met by the Calgary
Lions. Numerous trips and other
entertainment features helped to
make the visit to the northern city
one long to be remembered.
MI. hTdll comes Dack from the
convention more enthusiastic than
ever over the great good that is
being done by the Lions. One fea-
ture OF the program, he said, was the
calling on each club represented at
the convention to tell of the ac-
tivities it has carried on. Krall
states that those reports would as
found one in the picture they gave
OF the good that is being done. As
one example, he cited the activity of
the club at Taber, Alberta, that club
having purchased 10 pairs of glasses
for under-p privileged children in its
community.
MT. Krall was given recognition
by being named chairman of the
important registration and creden-
tails committee.
DR.. Sparkle of Calgary was elect
ed district governor for the ensu-
ing year and the next district con-
vention will be held at Great Falls.
Mr. and Mrs. Krall took advantage
OF the trip to visit a number of the
scenic spots of that part of Cam
ada on their way home.
