He works in close conjunction with the VLA and the pension board in order that veterans' affairs are constantly kept up to date. "He also helps those who are veterans but who are not Le- gion members and treats them as though they were members of the Legion. He is continually looking after any sick or needy family throughout our Legion territory, and is always one of the leaders when it comes to Christmas and Easter parcels.

"You've shown how wrong I was", confessed iMr, Easton, amid the laughter, Besides serving six years as president of the branch, he was zone commander for two years during which time he canvassed territories for Canadian Legion War Service funds, He was in- strumental in organizing civi- lian war effort in the area, in- cluding Red Cross Work. During his term as president, came the burning of the mort- gage on the first building owned by the branch, which was used extensively for war service and other organizations. He also was chairman and member of the building committee for the new hall. His posts in the branch have included adjustment officer, re- habilitation and pension officer, and he has been service bureau officer since 1947. Mr. Pooley served two years on the provincial command ways and means committee, and assisted in the forming or re- organization of several area Le- gion branches. He also has been instrumen- tal in achieving recognition -Continued from page 1 Bev, H. C.

Lewis was assisted at the service by Rev, Edgar Rout- ston, representing the miniSte- rial association, and the Legion President Heywood. Back to fundamentals Andrew Bierling,,a past presi- dent of the Legion, was in charge of the cenotaph service, during which 20 wreaths were laid at the foot of the nienierial, "Remembrance Days are ail very Well," said Bierling in a brief Message, "but unless we can get back to the fundamen- tal ideals of honesty, truth and brotherly love, T am afraid the future looks pretty black and these who sacrificed so /rata, for its, did it in vain, "Let Us dedicate ourselves to kindling the flame of the torch of freedom in those Who Will carry it into Canada's future, that \Irb, do it with the devotion and unselfishness which has eharactetited our past activia ties."

"Comrade Pooley is a veteran who was hospitalized after the first world war for a period of two years for critical opera. lions he required due to serious wounds, Aside from Legion work, he has also been greatly successful as a business man in the surrounding area, ash mer- chant, and later a farmer, "In other activities he served as president of the agricultural society. He is a past master of the Masonic Lodge, In public life, he served a term of three years as reeve of Exeter and has just completed serving a. term of seven years as mayor of Exeter, While. in this office, he always did his utmost to as- sist the citizens of the town and his comrades of the Legion 'in any ,way possible," Gardiner 'hung' in Hall of Fame Recognition continues to be given to the public service of the late Hon. J. G. Gardiner, former federal minister of agriculture, who spent his boy- hood in the Thames Road area.. Sunday, his picture was un- veiled in the Hall of Fame on the CNE grounds, Toronto, in a ceremony witnessed by his sister, Mrs. George Allen, of Kirkton, and other relatives. In his home town of Lem- berg, Sask., a new high school has been named in his honor. At the opening ceremony, some 300 of his former students and friends 'attended. An interesting connection has been noted between Mr, Gar- diner, who was premier of Saskatchewan before he enter- ed the federal field, and an- other former area resident who became premier of a western province, Hon. Thomas Greenway. Before moving to Saskatche- wan, Mr, Gardiner went to high school in Clearwater,. Alta., and one of his teachers there was Harvey Greenway, the son of Thomas. The latter was premier of Manitoba for several years after being act- ive in municipal and county polities in Huron county, short of its objective, secretary- treasurer Lorne KleisUver campaign is now only 53,000 Dashwood Community Centre an- nounced this week, "'The response has been ex- cellent - it's most gratifying to the building committee," he stated, The community canvass is progressing well and is appro., ximately one-half completed, Meanwhile, construction of the hall continues at a last pace, The committee is now Purchasing the mechanical equipment for the interior.

However it was his decision not to play football this year be- cause it affected his standing in his grade and because he plan- ned a hunting trip this fall. However, after the practice pe- riods began, when he did not appear for practice, he was ap- proached by several people who encouraged him to play. As a result he changed his mind from his original plan and played, This 'to me is persuasion. The letter did not state that he was unduly coaxed, nor did we ver- bally make such a charge. In reference to the matter of our giving our permission for him to play, we were at no time contacted by any school official or insurance official in any way to obtain our permis- sion in writing or otherwse. I might add here that the thought of bringing charges against the school has never been retained in our minds. We have always felt that this mat- ter can be dealt with in a dip- lomatic Christian way without resorting to unpleasant. meth- ods. It appears now that after careful examination of the school's insurance policies, the school does carry a reason- able amount of insurance. This however was not known at the time by the parties that gave me the information of the $100 maximum. In our letter to the school we expressed our apprecation to Mr, Bogart and the rest of the team for the kindness shown our son after the injury. We re- peat our appreciation here. We also wish to say that we the parents and our injured son hold no animosity toward any staff member or teammate. They were only doing their job. Our regret is that this entire matter has been so misrepre- sented. L. B.

After carefully reading it again and again I do not find a single indication of any form of a threat. I might add here that prior to sending the letter to the school I presented it to a fel- low minister for his considera- tion. He was in agreement that the contents were not threaten- ing or injurious. In referance to the letter in question, On the morning of Oct. 15, 1 called at the school office to inquire about insur- ance coverage. I was informed that the maximum was $100. -Then I inquired of the board of trustees and there again I received the same information and knowing that the cost in this case would be much high- er, I wrote to the school stat- ing that we would expect the school or its insurance com- pany to bear the entire cost of the injury plus a compensation in case of permanent defect which we hope and pray will not be the case. The letter also stated that we expect home as- signments to be prepared for our son while he is confined to his home then when he will finally be able to return to class that he then be given the help that he will need to bring him in even standing with his class.
