A large number of members make a very speâ€" cial effort to attend just to take part in discussions and the routine work of the organization. Walter Greaves, the president, feels however, that more would attend if there was some added. aitraction after the business is conâ€" cluded. In this regard it is suggested and no doubt wil} be carried through that: various topics be discussed and lecturers asked to address the memâ€" bers. To give this a trial, there will be a number of filnmns run off at the next general meeting on Monday, February If this meets witn tne desired ~effect the plan will be elaborated upon ‘and some very interesting times are plarned. Another suggestion is that meetings commence at 7.30 p.m. to give thaose who have to leave early a chance to complete the meetine. For the benefit of the large number of Legion members who have spoken to The Advance, in regard to a techniâ€" callerror in a recent issue, the following is given for general informatison. The amount .expended on relief last year totalied at little over $1400.00 as against around ;:$1500.00 for 1936 and over $1,000.00 was paid off the building loan. The projected route would follow the high ground west of the towns, Departâ€" \ment engineers are believed to hold the view that conditions call for a . road stretch of this nature and it is pointed out that there has been a suggestion from time to time that the approaches to Cobalt, particularly from the south, are unsatisfactory, while in both other towns conditions exist, it is* claimed, which do not fit in with modern traffic needs. Legion Meetings Will Include Special Features made on the subject and nothing will b> done in the matter until after the present improvements have been comâ€" pleted, but it is understood that a cutâ€" off which would relieve through autoâ€" mobilists of the necessity of passing through the streets of Cobalt, Haileyâ€" bury and New Liskeard, will be conâ€" structed in the not distant future. ‘The idea is in keeping with lupâ€"toâ€"date preyâ€" tice both..in the Old Land and on this continent of avoiding congested urban centres where possible, it is stated.
