APRIL 26, 1928 felt'sure, set standards well above those of the C.I.N.A. Major G. P. Bulman, O.B.E., proposed "The T.S.A.," and Mr. L. \V. Warner, A.M.I.A.E., responded, both making very witty speeches, but as the subject was of a rather " domestic " nature, it is not thought necessary to publish a report here. During the evening music was provided by Signor Bone- facio's orchestra, and intervals were enlivened by Clapham and Dwyer, Miss Emmie Joyce, and Mr. Lionel King, the latter's game of " Nap," with Sir John Higgins, Mr. McAnally and Mr. Gilmore holding the "hands," being particularly appreciated. The proceedings concluded with " Auld Lang Syne," and once more the A.I.D. Annual Dinner could be written down an unqualified success.
