At Lions Meeting
Edenton Lions felt repaid for one i
of their recent activities on Monday
i night when a very appreciative letter
'was read from an indigent child for
I whom the club had purchased a niedi- 1
eal garment. The letter furnished an 1
idea for an address by Earl Harrell,
| who spoke briefly but seriously on
! the real purpose of Lions Clubs
which, if carried out, make them an
asset to any community.
A guest at the meeting was Rock
fellow Venters, the new football
coach, and during the meeting it j
was agreed to place on the “member-
I at-large list those Lions who find it
necessary to be absent from the regu- j
lar meetings. 1
