The Legion continues to support our Veterans of past and present with many bene- fits and this is due to the determination of our thou- sands of dedicated volunteer members at all levels of the organization. Legion Remembrance pro- grammes commemorate the men and women who died in the military service of Canada during war and peace. Main- taining the tradition of Remembrance is a sacred trust and the Legion's most important role. The Poppy has been widely recognized as a symbol of Remembrance, since it was first adopted in 1921. Bywear- ing the poppy, we demon- strate our gratitude to those who gave their lives for the freedom we enjoy. Each year, for two weeks before Remem- brance Day, Legions through- out Ontario carry out our Poppy Campaign. The cam- paign raises awareness of the Poppy as a symbol of Remembrance. The basic purpose of the poppy funds is to provide immediate assistance to ex - servicemen and women in need. This may include food shelter or medical attention for them or their families. Funds raised during the Poppy Campaign are also used for the following: Comforts for veteran in hospital or hospitalized veterans Legion Service Bureau Expenses of the Branch Vet- eran Services Chairman Community medical appliances Medical research Medical training Donations for disaster relief Educational Bursaries Prizes for the annual Remembrance Day Poster and Literary (Poem and Essay) Contests. Any ex -serviceman or woman or dependent is eligible to apply for financial aid from the Poppy, whether they are Legion members, or not. After expenses, such as the cost of Poppies, wreaths and other supplies are deducted; all remaining monies are placed in trust to be used on those pur- poses authorized in the General By-laws of The Royal Canadian Legion. Campaign expenses are generally low, because most of the work is voluntary. The Legion's constitution, stresses that Poppy funds must be held in trust. They are held in a bank account separate from that of the branch general funds and cannot be used for any purpose other than those stipulated. The Poppy Campaign com- mences October 31, 2014. The town of Clinton door to door canvassing will take place November 2, 2014 after church service. The community of Bay- field will have poppy boxes at various businesses. e.,/,//7/6741 ._,I,714,6nCi,,f9t11 74/e %vete (aa 7a ?f/owko 7ee "4aea eLuukrz: Clinton United Church 105 Ontario Street Minister Rev.

Mayor Jim Ginn and Dep- uty Mayor Dave Jewitt had been acclaimed after running unopposed. Five of the incumbent councillors, Marg Anderson, Danny Colquhoun, Alex Westerhout (East Ward) and Burkhard Metzger and Alison Lobb (West Ward) were all reelected. Joining council is Genny Smith, who replaces Brian Barnim in the West Ward. Only 29% of voters in Cen- tral Huron voted. Mayor Ginn said he was somewhat disappointed with the voter turnout. He said with seven of the eight councillors coming back they will be able to get back into the swing of things rather quickly.
