Our theme will be "Conversions", so bring up to fifteen slides to illustrate any­ thing "conversion" may mean to you. Let your imagination go! * * * * * * * THE EDITOR'S LOGBOOK We thank all who attended the October meeting and brought slides of their summer shipwatching slides. Many, however, did not bring slides to share with the other members and we wonder why not. Even old and non-summer images are welcome at this meeting, so please plan to participate next October. Did you renew for the 2004-2005 season? If you receive this issue, then you did send us your renewal. If you know someone who says they didn't receive it, you might gently suggest that they send us their dues. Do you have any marine artifacts that you might care to donate for the next Silent Auction? We need more good items and would like to hear from YOU. In the New Member Department, we extend a most hearty welcome to Bruno Boissoneault, of Cap Rouge, Quebec, and to Greg Stephens, of Painesville, Ohio. We hope you enjoy your membership in the Toronto Marine Historical Society. * * * * * * * Executive Committee Jay N. Bascom R. F. Beaupre David Bull Roger Chapman Lorne Joyce Wm. P. Moran Capt. G.
