Messrs. –

Mr. Robert Todd, the president of the club, occupied the chair.

The toast of the "Stanley Club" was proposed by Mr. G. H. Radford, M.P., and humorously responded to by the hon. secretary of the club, Mr. E. P. Hewkin.

Mr. Chas. Sangster proposed the toast of the "Stanley Show," to which Mr. E. A. Lamb,. secretary, replied, telling his audience that the forthcoming Stanley Show would be one of the biggest successes the club had achieved during the past five or six years. The Show would be specially interesting this year because of the improvements which would be shown, not only in cycles, but in motorcycles, in which department a great advance had been made since last year. The show would also have a good display of motorcars, and Mr, Lamb predicted that when the doors opened to the public next' Friday the Show would be a success.
