These are chang- ing and troubled times and de- mand clear thinking from each member that all may go forward with faith, hope and confidence. sia under Stalin rule. lie said there were no problems enter- ing Russia now, in fact, the tour- ist agencies offer attractive tours and one's impression of RuSsia today is that a great building boom is on especially apartment houses complete with shopping, medical, laundry-- almost any facility one would need. These facilities Mr. Bremner said were badly need- ed since the general accom- modation outside the cities were nothing more than run down shacks. The speaker noted that, al- though Russia encourages the tourist trade, they are reluctant to let their own people travel to other countries mainly be- cause they cannot afford to let their money out of their country. He said the cost of clothes in Russia is exceedingly high and the garments poorly made; food is so high that people cannot afford to feed themselves since their wages are only about one- third of what an average Can- adian earns but rent, heat and lighting are all low in cost even in the newer apartments. Mr. Bremner further stated that there is no cost for medical services or education in Russia. "At the end of grade 4 the pupil is expected to know 10,000 words in comparison to an American child of the same grade level who knows 4,000 words. English is taught in grade 5 and the years follow- ing," he said. In comparing the two countries Mr. Bremner said "There are 50,000 Russians studying English and 10,000 Americans studying Russian." Mrs. Max Harness thanked Mr. Bremner for his interesting talk. Mrs. Lorne Ford had in- troduced him. Mrs. Clarence Knight, a past president, presented Mrs. Douglas Triebner with her past presidents' badge and Mrs. Wil- liam Parker presented a gift on behalf of the. Auxiliary. Mrs. There is no strength where there is no strain; seamanship is not learned in calm weather, and born of the vicissitudes and struggles of life are the wisdom, the dignity, and the consolations. Joseph Howe William Higgins was presented with the past secretary's badge by Herb Broom, president of the Legion. Each Au x i 1 ia r y member received a corsage for the evening.
