Annual Meeting of the Horticultural Society {l{he annual general mseting of the immins Horticultural Society will be held in the town hall, Timmins, on Friday evening of next week, April 25th, at 7.30 pm. The chief business before the meeting will be the receivâ€" ing of reports for the past year and the election of officers for the ensuing year. There should be a large atitendâ€" ance at this meeting as it is an importâ€" ant one from the standpoint of the town. All members of the society shauld naturally be present and in addition there should be a large gathering of all interested in the beautifying of the town. The work of the Timmins Horticultural Society during the pmast few years has added very much to the pleasure of ilving in Timmins. No one who knew the town ten or twelve years ago can deny that there has been an immense improvement in the appearance of the town, and those who know are quite ready to give a large part of the crediti for this improvement to the Horticulâ€" tural Society. Through example and encouragement and the information given out the society has certainly done a great deal to increase the numâ€" ber of fine lawns and gardens and ths planting of shrubs and trees. Much of the credit for other works, such as the town park on Spruce street, near the station, must also go to the Horticulâ€" tural Society both for fostering the idea and helping in its carrying out. Each year the officers have been most earnâ€" est and tireless in their efforts and the past year has been no excepition to the rule. Every support should be given those active in the good work of the Horticultural Society. They are cerâ€" tainly doing something worth while for Timmins, and the general public should show interest.

Lang Tells About the History, Scenery, Customs of Berâ€" muda. _ Interesting FKong Comâ€" petition. Prize Given to Children‘s Aid Society There was a particularly large gathâ€" ering for the Kiwanis luncheon on Monday of this week at the Empire hotel, the attendance being specially gratifying and the meeting generally being a very attractive one. The usuâ€" al features, community singing, etc., were enjoyed, with a few sprecial items as an extra attraction. The speaker for the day was A. W. Lang, who recently returned from an extended trip to Bermuda. Mr. Lang gave a talk on Bermuda that was a genuine treat, having the right comâ€" bination of interesting information, use‘ul facts, humour, wit and racy preâ€" sentation. He cutlined the history of Bermuda; told of its settlement and development; referred to many of its quaint customs; sketched its people and their lives and character; pictured the beauty of its scenic attractions; mentioned its climate, and touched upâ€" on features that he made most interâ€" esting. He gave witty description of the hotels and their charges, as well as the general attitude of the people to the tourists. There was much aprirecâ€" ation for the address by Mr. Lang. Another special feature of the day was the song contest. Kiwanian E. H. King had offered a five dollar gold piece for the best song set to popular music to be used as a Timmins song. There was much talk previously about the number intending to enter this contest, but when the actual test came on Monday there was only the one song that received any serious conâ€" sideration. This was one by C. G. Keddie. It was set to thue popular music, "I Want to be Happy," anc made a big hit. It was unanimously voted as the winning song and Mr. Keddie was awarded the fiveâ€"dollar gold piece. An interesting and pleasâ€" ing aftermath of the contest was the fact that Mr. Keddie on receipt of his prize at once turned the five dollars over to the Children‘s Aid Society. After the regular luncheon and meetâ€" ing of the Kiwanis club on Monday, there was a meeting of the directors for general business. Kiwanian Vincent Woodbury, who has been away for some time on a trip to the South, was heartily welcomed back to the club and all expressed pleasure at seeing this popular memâ€" ber so improved in health after his wellâ€"earned holiday.
