This fact, and others relating to that same army's victory of the Kaiser were among the memories recalled at a reunion in the Hensall Legion, Friday, when veterans of the First World War were honored on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the "war to end all wars". After the banquet, the veterans sat about discussing their memories of the various battles in which they were engaged. Those attending are pictured in these two photos.

Let's say you've decided to invest an extra $200 a year in life insurance. What's the next step ? Careful now. Don't just order "another $10,000." That's like buying a house without seeing it first, A house has to fit your family, your family activities, your future plans. So does your insurance programme. Your problem is to fit that extra $200 worth into your overall plan for financial security and growth. Should you spend it on more family protection today? Or on providing cash for a child's education fifteen years from now? Or on a retirement fund for yourself ? Or on a com- bination of these? You can see how, without help, planning such a programme can be complicated. But there is help. Your Manufacturers Life underwriter has an ingenious device called a Security Graph, which systematically pictures your overall financial position and objectives, and then indicates where that $200 will do the best job. There's no charge for a Security Graph insurance review. So call your Man from Manufacturers soon. ehoWer held at the Crediton Community centre.
