LIONS ATTEND EVENT IN MEMPHIS

Mary L. Estes, president of the Cape Girardeau Evening Lions Club and Mr. and Mrs. Allen Taylor, past president of the club, attended Presidents Weekend held in Memphis this summer.

They were guests of Methodist Hospital and Le Bonheur Children's Hospital. These hospitals, in conjunction with the Lions of Arkansas, Mississippi, Missouri and West Tennessee and the University of Tennessee Department of Ophthalmology, provide services for the Mid-South Lions Sight and Hearing Service.

Mid-South Lions have donated more than $750,000 worth of equipment to this program. To receive Mid-South's services a patient must fall within federal indigence guidelines and be sponsored by a Lions Club.

Brad Becker, executive director of Mid-South Sight and Hearing Services, was speaker at the Cape Evening Lions Club meeting Aug. 3.
