In case of hunger, one accepts the need to kill for food, but the pleasure in killing for the sake .of pride or. for amusement is gone. Recent columns have dealt with the smaller birds. and ani- mals becoming good company to the lone prospector or fish- erman, and it is this personal- ization of the birds and beasts that seems to bring about the Poppy Fund Arrangements Are Announced Kenneth Mullins, Poppy Chair- man for Goderich Branch 109, The Royal Canadian Legion, has announced plans of the Branch in a special bulletin mailed to all members. A Poppy canvass will be held in the Town of Goderich Friday evening. Legion members are asked to report to the Branch as soon as poSsible after 5:30 p.m. to take part. At least 60 members are required for a full canvass. The canvass will contintie an Saturday, and members who are able to help are asked to contact Ken Muffin, the Poppy chairman. A church parade will be held Sunday, November 8th to North Street United Church, with Roman Catholic members parading to St. Peter's Church. Members are asked to meet at the Legion Hall at 10:15, dress, Beret and medals. On Wednesday, November 11th, Legion members will meet at the Legion Hall at 10:15. Dress, Berets and med- als.

His Characterisation of the animals and birds must have stayed thousands of trigger fingers. Now the camera as a shoot- ing'"weapon" is becoming more popular. When genuine hunger, a real need for food takes hold, the personality of the bird or beast flies out the window. One sees the rabbit in the stew, the partridge breast in the pot. One feels the belly filled and the strength renewed. Not That Hungry No being that hungry at the moni6nt, it looks as though yous columnist will forego the deer hunt this year. There were same hazy plans to load up the old .303 cut down to sporting and sashay up into the Bruce Peninsula for a bit of venison for the freezer. Some- how the old enthusiasm is no longer there. We have done more killing than we wish, No longer do we feel justified in killing for mere sport. There is something to be said for the hallowed Dr. Schweit- zer's "Reverence for Life", al- though we cannot follow him as far as refraining from swat- ting mosquitoes or black flies. If the compulsion comes to prove myself once again as a marksman, a cardboard target will suffice. This beat-up ego no longer requires the pool of blood, the quivering carcass in shock, the blasted bone and ripped flesh. If the truth were told, many hunters might confess that their killing is an instinctive thing, partly dictated by something they don't fully understand.

As of October 31 within the Police Village limits we have 96 percent of the permanent residents and 87 percent of the summer re- sidents signed in favour. We also have overwhelming agree- ment on our petitions from those residents of the lands we propose to annex in Stanley and Goderich Townships. Both Stanley and Goderich Town- ship Councils have informed us and the OMB that they will not oppose Reincorporation on our present Police Village boun- daries, but are prepared to do battle on annexation proposals. "This is your meeting. The groundwork has been laid by your Executive, now your sup- port is needed at this crucial stage in the history of Hay- field. If, through your support, we achieve our mutual objec- tive of Reincorporation there will be plenty of work for the Association, as a whole, in set- ting up the gOvernment for our community and in planning for Its future."
