Show ST. LOUIS READY FOR LIONS MEET The Seventeenth Annual Convention Conven-tion of the International Association ' Lions Clubs to be held at St. Louis, Missouri, July 11-14, gives every indication in-dication of being outstanding in the majority of its features. An unusually unusual-ly attractive program has been arranged ar-ranged for each day of the session, and the Lions of St. Louis have made extensive preparations to extend true southern hospitality to every delegate del-egate and guest. The list of speakers is a notable one. All are prominent in their respective re-spective fields, and each is a recognized rec-ognized authority on his subject. Lorado Taft, the most celebrated of American sculptors, has been secured se-cured to address the Wednesday session ses-sion on "Beauty in American Life," and on Thursday, Professor Irving Fisher, of Yale University, famous economist, will speak on "Depression Inflation and Deflation." Of unusual interest will be the address ad-dress of Mr. Frederick Landis, noted writer, known over the air as "The Hoosier Editor." There will be $3,000.00 awarded in prizes to the best band, drum and bugle corps, and the best quartette; and the best convention stunt will receive re-ceive $500.00. The largest number in each event insures keen competition. The Lions is the only service club having exhibit space on the grounds at the Chicago Century of Progress exposition. |
