In loving memory of a dear wife and mother, Mrs. Simpson Stetson. Freetown. who departed this life Feb. 11th. 1954.

Sadly issed and lovingly re- membered by her h u s b a n d. daughters. Edith and Florence

' and son -in-law, Orville.

Chief Game Officer Spurgeon Jenkins brought to the attention of the meeting that in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick the open season for geese and ducks was over a period of 70 days. while in this province, shooting was permitted for only 60 days. He suggested the possibility of approval being given covering the additional ten days, and af- ter considerable discussion Mr. Jenkins was requested to look further into the matter and sug- gest to the Association executive the dates most desirable for a time addition. The executive would then make the ,v overtures to have the wishes of the Association considered by those in authority.

Considerable interest was cen-3 tered around the calling contest which followed. in which Roy Sherren was named the winner in the goose calling and Hugh (Tuddy) MacKlnnon carried off the honors in calling the ducks.
