Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Canadian Club of Fort William: Annual 1910 The story of the second year of the Canadian Club of Fort William is summed up concisely in the address of the Secretary, for the year 1909, Dr. Crawford C. McCulloch, who assumes the presidency for 1910. His report runs, in part, as follows: - During the year there have been many meetings of your executive, the last of which has been remarkable for its large attendance. From the very outset the members of the executive have displayed an enthusiasm which at the close of the year remains undiminished. This a matter for congratulation, for an enthusiastic executive is the key note for the success of a club of this nature. Eight luncheons have been held during the year just closed, and each has been a success. The several speakers have addressed us a diversity of subjects, each timely, and of educational value. Many new members have been elected during the past year, and applications are being constantly received. In September of this year a convention of Canadian Clubs was held at Montreal, the outcome of which was the formation of "An Association of Canadian Clubs" for the Dominion. The honorary secretary of this federation is at Montreal and the chief object of the union is to foster Canadian patriotism by recognizing the formation of Canadian clubs and by promoting their success, to facilitate the interchange among clubs of their documents, publications and other useful information. Your club is now a member of this association. Your club contributed a subscription towards the erection of a memorial tower at Halifax, N. S., to commemorate the unique fact that in a province of Canada, that is, Nova Scotia, one hundred and fifty years ago, was convened the first representative legislature in any of the British colonies. The idea of erecting this national tower originated with the Canadian Club of Halifax, and it is a matter of satisfaction to know that so general was the response of the Canadian Clubs, the provincial legislatures, and private individuals throughout the Dominion that the success of the undertaking is now assured. Mention must be made of the visit of Lord Strathcona in September last to this city. A reception was held at the city hall, where many of our citizens had the honor of personally meeting our distinguished countryman.
