Looking into the past brings to mind the starting of the S. A. F. and the part played by that grand old man, J. C. Vaughan, the friend of every hortiaul- ? turist, who was largely instrumental in the starting of the society, always a worker and still a worker, contributing his bit whenever occasion or necessity arises. What would the society have done without these men of the older gen- eration—without the Vaughans, the Craigs, the Lonsdales, the Westcotts, the Smiths, the Burtons, the Hills, the Stewarts, and many others who bring back most wonderful recollections of what we can do to make our lives worth whilef We, in our busy everyday life, are apt to forget those who are older and have passed their zenith; so we want to take this opportunity to ex- press our appreciation and thanks for all that members of the old guard have done for the S.

To the trade papers, with their support, their advice, their con- tributions and their wonderful assist- ance, not only the S. A. F., but the trade in general owes more than they can estimate, in helping the society to the elevating international position it holds today. The different societies,
