We had a large crowd present and we thank all those who brought slides illustrating "Reflections". Members should note that in the confusion of the December issue becoming the January issue, it was erroneously labelled as Vol. XXXVIII - NO. 4. The heading should have read Vol. XXXVIII - NO. 3. The current issue is the real NO. 4. We extend our most sincere thanks to the many members who have passed on their wishes for the Editor's recovery from his recent illness. Your kind words surely have assisted in the slow but steady recovery process. Enclosed with the March issue will be the list of items to be offered in our next Silent Auction. Some very interesting items will be offered and, as your Society needs the funds the auction will generate, please sharpen your pencils and be prepared to bid generously. We thank all those who have donated items for the auction. * * * * * * * ISSN 0318-014X
