1943 Hoo-Hoo All-Out Annual

International Concatenated Order of Hoo-Hoo announces that the 52nd Hoo-Hoo annual is put on a new, patriotic basis, and this year an unusual and different program will be put on. Instead of the usual convention held in one city, it is planned to have a 1943 Hoo-Hoo All-Out Annual with meetings throughout the United States and Canada, wherever Hoo-Hoo is organized. This means that all clubs will meet simultaneously, the same day, the same hour, all on Hoo-Hoo Day, September 9.

In addition, rvherever there are unorganized Hoo-Hoo. the individuals will be asked to meet on FIoo-Hoo Day to toast Hoo-Hoo and the Great Black Cat.

Milwaukee, the home of the Supreme Snark of the Universe and the International Secretary, will be the spearhead-the hub of all meetings, and from this central point will radiate the details, the Hoo-Hoo messages, and the Hoo-Hoo spirit, to all participating clubs, gatherings and individuals.

The program to be follou'ed will be the same for each gathering, but may be modified in detail to suit each particular group. The tentative program is as follorvs:

1. Registration of attending members.

2. A patriotic motive. By rvay of suggestion, flag presentation, singing of the National Anthem of both the United States and Canada, buglers, Boy Scouts, rePresentatives of the Armed Forces to take part, Oath of Allegiance. etc, may be divided into three parts, talks by Hoo-Hoo members or outside phase of tl're forestry or the lumber in-

3. The program A, B and C.

A. One or two speakers on some dustry.

B. A Hoo-Hoo business meeting, patterned after a regular convention business session, rvill constitute the second part of the program.

C. Provisions should be made to hold a concat which should be held immediately follorving the sessions above referred to. . In all cases u'here clubs have Hoo-Hoo equipment, the regular ritual should be followed. Due to not enough equipment for concats at all gatherings, a brief or modified form of concat may be held in such localities where equipment is not available.

The entertainment feature should not be overlooked. and the arrangements for the meetings are left entirely to the discretion of the members in charge of each particular gathering.

When a dry kiln is installed witl,in an existing structure, such installation is not to be considered as constuction. Whenever old kilns are remodeled, Form WPB-541 (formerly PD-IA) is the correct form on which to apply.

When a customer is constructing a completely nerv kiln, including the building, then he should use Form WP8-617 (formerly PD-200).

In both cases, the dry kiln equipment purchased will be listed in the equipment section of the form as one dry kiln and the value in dollars shou'n. It $'ill not be necessary to show detailed breakdorvn of the items of dry kiln equipment, as the unit norv set up for dry kiln equipment is "dollars."
