Four candidates were nominated for the federal election June 11 when the nomination meeting was held Monday at the county buildâ€" ing with Returning Officer A. A. Craise presiding. A donation was made this year of $25.00 to Niaâ€" gara Peninsula Sanatorium towards T.B. prevention. This year, a plan was set in the schools, whereby your Lions Club would supply Halibut Oil capsules to any child not taking similar vitamins at home. So far we have supplied 10,000 capsules, at a cost of $48.78. | _ Your Lions Committee had planned this year to hold a dental clinic in the schools to discover faulty teeth, with a view to having this condition remedied, if necessary at their expense. So far, due to lack of availâ€" able free time this has not been accomplished, but it is hoped to engage in this project in the very near future. We trust as the story of activities of the various Lions Club Committees unfolds, that you will agree that the service of your Lions Club is no mere pretense and generously support their present drive to raise funds with which to carry on their work.
