First Annual Meeting and Dinner.

The first auuual meeting of St. 'Joseph's College Association was held last evening, and the first dinner followed, *.

The chairman, Mr. H. Dixon, at the annual meeting soil:-

Gentlemen-You have just heard read the Committee's report for the period from 8th October the date when the Asso-í ciation was formed to 31.t December 1913. For that perind, members subscription was $1 only each. The balance the oradit of the Account amounts to 836.05 after deducting $200 of the "old Boys Scholarship Fua which was especially contributed for that purpose. I hope that, out of future subscriptions there. will be sufficiant surplus to set, apart a portion towards the Scholarship Fund, so that a large enough amount will be accumu

ated, which, when placed in Fixed Deposit, will yield a yearly Interest wherewith to pay for the Baholarships provided in tule 2 (d) of the Association.

Our thanks are due to the gentlemen who at the Committee's invitation, were kind enough to come up to this fall and deliver the instructive lectures dotalied." in the report. We are most grate- ful to our patron, Bishop Puzzoni for presiding at every one of tho lectures. The attendance at these meetings bas nol always been a large as it might have been. It is only due to those who so kindly give up their time to us in the preparation and the delivering of the addressee, that membere show their appreciation by attend ing them in larger numbers.
