We have no desire to serve for the individual gain of any member. Our purpose is that every citizen regardless of whether or not he should be a Lion Member shall share equal in the advantages gained thru that great principal of cooperation. , We have learned thru Llonlsm in the short time we have been charter, ed, that even our competitors can help us succeed. We have found our. Belves linked closer together. We are trading more one with another. Why, because of the feeling of good fellowship fel-lowship that is rapidly merging into our lives. WHAT HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED THRU LIONISM American Fork -has allied herself with 18 other cities In Utah, all of whom have accepted llonlsm. This In it's self, is a wonderful demonstration, demonstra-tion, of the fact that we are progress. Ing. American Fork Lions played a very prominent part in the organlza. tion of a State Poultry Men's Day to be held annually in American Fork. This promises to be one of the big gest advertising features ever attempted at-tempted by a community such as American Fork. Our first event was overwhelmingly successful." The entire en-tire day was a busy one. Chicken sandwiches were handed out by the thousands to tourists and visitors as they passed thru our fair. city. The day was , finished with a chicken luncheon held In the Alpine Stake Tabernacle. It was a real knockout. Representative men and women from all parts of the state were in at; tendance and partook of the splendid hospitality displayed during the entire en-tire event. Much is promised annual--ly for this great Poultryman"s Day which Is to be, American Fork's own. American Fork Lions undertook the problem of Parking Main street This project alone would well pay our community for an entire year's 1928 expires this project will be torn plete, aud that too will Indeed be a credit to the community, immeasurable. immeasura-ble. ; These are only a few of the activL. ties undertaken and accomplished by the American Fork Lions Club. We meet twice monthly, the second and forth Thursday of each month, when a month has five Thursday's, the Wives are entertained. 8everal of these events have already been en Joyed, each one very much accredited for the splendid manner In which it was -carried off. Our meetings are of the luncheon type. A very dainty spread is pre, pared. Every member is at his post before the appointed hour and business busi-ness is commenced immediately at 7:00. the hour fixed by the group.

They are individuals representing practically all of the business enterprises of our city. They are loyal to a man to their organlza. tlon. It would be almost Impossible with the support of this type of mem. bership to fall short of serving a public in the most efficient manner. , As citizens desirous of a bigger and better American Fork let the Lions assist you with your problems. You will find this organization at anytime ready to plunge into activity should it see an opportunity to add something to the physical or moral betterment of American Fork.
