APPEAL FOR MORE MEMBERS "AND GREATER

ENTHUSIASM.

The 12th annual general meeting of the Associacao Portuguesa" de Socorros Muties, which has a local membership of 200, was held at the Club Lusitano last evening, Mr. C. A. da Roza (President) who was in the chair was supported by members of the Committee and other officers. The annual report of the Com- mittee, reviewing last year's activities, was published in the Daily Press last Friday,

There was a very meagre attendance of members, and strong comment was made on their apparent apathy it being suggested that many more should join this big Portuguese benevolent society. With a view to arousing more interest and obtaining recruits it was recommended that the Committee should do all it tould to. bring the claims of the Society to the notice of ether Portuguese Associations and Clubs in the Colony and to the Portuguese com- munity generally. It was pointed out that the subscriptions were low, and benefits to those in distress commendably high. It was the duty of all Portuguese to support the Society, which although strong to-day could not afford to allow a dwindling in member- ship.
