A graduate of University of Dublin, he possesses more than twenty years'xperience in eng- ineering, mostly in munidpal work. Prior to the war he serv- ed with the Saskatchewan gov- ernment as an engineer and later spent several years overseas with Canadian forces. After the war he was Burna- by municipal engineer for two years and then accepted a simi- lar position at Saanich, Vancou- ver Island, where he designed and surveyed installation of sewer and water systems, cost- ing 81,400,000.

The next meeting of this so- ciety will be held on Thursday evening, February 25th, when an address will be given by Mrs. Selwood on "The Romance of the Scottish Border," the country which made Sir Walter Scott. The speaker is a native of the Border Country, and has been a keenly appreciative student of the aspects of nature as display- ed between the Tweed and the Cheviots. That the subject will be interesting goes without say- ing and it will lose nothing of its interest in Mrs. Selwood's hands. L. O. L. L.O.L.

Miss Joan Durbin sang a group of four songs which were very well received. A. J. Addy's line baritone was heard to great advantage in the group of four songs he had chosen, and William Sparrow, Vancouver tenor, sang also a group of four songs, his rendi- tion of "My Lovely Celia" being C. 3.
