THE ICELANDIC CANADIAN
Autumn 1968
Editor-in-Chief made tentative arrange-
ments with the Editors of the Review
for a joint subscription price below
the combined individual subscription.
The price of the Atlantica and Iceland
Review is $5.70 per year in Canada
and the price of this magazine is $2.00
a year, total $7.70. The tentative ar-
rangement made and now confirmed
is that both quarterlies be available at
a combined subscription price of
$6.00 per year, thus effecting a saving
of $1.70 a year. Orders on this side of
the Atlantic are to be sent to the
Business and Circulation Manager,
John V. Samson, at 868 Arlington St.,
Winnipeg 3.
While in Reykjavik the Editor-in-
Chief was able to obtain the services
of a representative for this magazine
in Reykjavik, who, by reason of his
occupation and training, is particular-
ly will qualified to render that service
for the magazine. The man is Gissur
Eggertsson who has a bookstore at
RauSalaek 39 in Reykjavik.
This magazine would be remiss in
its duty if it did not record its ap-
preciation to the former representa-
tives, Anna J. Jonsson, a former Vestur
Islendingur, and Baldur borsteinsson
who is in the service of the Skograektar-
felag, the Forestry Association of Ice-
land, for their service to the magazine.

Annual Meeting of The Icelandic Canadian Club
The annual meeting of The Iceland-
ic Canadian Club was held on May 6,
in the Parish Hall of the First Luther-
an Church. The President Leifur
Hallgrimson was in the chair.
In the course of his report he drew
to the attention of the meeting that
Mr. Hjalmur F. Danielson had re-
signed from the Magazine Board and
paid tribute to him for his many years
of service. The Chairman of the Mag-
azine Board, W. J. Lindal, confirmed
that Mr. Danielson had resigned and
that the Board had accepted the resig-
nation with regret. In appreciation of
the long and efficient service of Hjal-
mur, extending back to the time the
magazine was launched twenty-six
years ago, the Magazine Board had in-
creased the usual honorarium granted
to him of $300.00 to $400.00 for the
last year of service.
