The direcâ€" tors of the association desire a large crowd, and no one need hesitate about going because of any fear that the hall might not be large enough to accomâ€" modate the crowd. As a matter of fact the hall has a capacity of 800, so there will be room for all attending. The event will be well worth while, as a programme of unusual interest and value has been arranged. There will be motion pictures of wild life shown at this meeting, and all attendâ€" ing will enjoy this special feature. So that none may use the excuse that they want to hear the fight and so can not attend, arrangements have already been made to receive full details of the battle by use of the radio. Everybody is invited to this meeting, and it seems superfluous to add that all will be well pleased with the unusually interesting and informative programme. who was born in Gaspe, | joined the 122nd battalion of | thre CEF. and served in France with‘ the 57th battalion, to which luunit he! was drafted in England.
