Mr. F. Oliver observed that from the Bowling Average printed on the report, he noticed that Mr. S. Abbas had the highest average.

An item in the account reading "Bad Debts written off $1,342.17 next came in for discussion. Quen tions were put to the chairman as to why certain members were allowed run their debta to ever 360, when the
account on reaching $50 should be stopped? Was the Committes going Lo guarantee that in future. no accounts would exceed the limit of $507
The chairman replied that there were some members whose chits with the club exeweled $50 per month. In such circumstances it was difficult to ask a person to pay up his chits when it reached 360, The Club aimed at facilitating everyone, and the laying down of a hard and fast limit would rve no useful purpose. There must be bad debts everywhere, and the Craigengower Club could not expect to be the exception.

Mr. W. Allan remarked that the list of defaulters had been taken down. Mr. Basa replied that the list was put up without the authorlty of the Committee and he had therefore caused it to be removed. The posting of the names of defaulters in that manner was irregular.
Questions as to who caused the Hat to he put up in the first place was then asked and the chairman replied that the Secretary, under the impression that he was doing his duty, had done BO,
Another member, reverting to the question of bad debts asked if the whole amount written off, was lost to the Club. The chairman replied that he thought some of it was pro bably not a. "total loss" as there was a prospect of collecting it.
