We already have a ski club, which, having as rendezvous a cabin three or foutr miles out, indulges in this winter sport on Sunday afternoons and appears to be a source of much pleaseure and good healthy outâ€"dcor exercise for our young folks. This club, as we have mentioned before, is under good chaperonage, and appears to be filling a need in the lives of the young people. skating club which would irclude members both young and older seems to us to be a{ good thing for our community. When the idea was suggested several skaters hailtd it with pleasure. About a hunâ€" adared met on Sunday night and formed an executive. As president theyâ€"seâ€" lected Mr. J. Jackson and as secrétary Mrs. P. Campagnola, with a commitâ€" tee of five ladies and five gentlemen as follows:â€"Mrs. W. Blackburn, Mrs. R. Mansfield, Mrs. P. Campagnola, Miss J. Armstrong and Miss H. Lafurgy; Messrs, P. Campagnola, J. Cronmuller, W. Blackburn, Ed Mansfield and 2. Smith (Pamour). We believe the inâ€" tention is to skate at certain times to gether at the rink, arnd possibly make it also a social club. STORE Phone 68 BRUCE AVE. Drugs Toiletries Tobaccos Dr, J. C.
