A New Service
To Our Subscribers
The Times-Advocate can now offer It's subscribers the opportunity to save
money on the purchase of an
ENCYCLOPEDIA
We can offer The Lincoln Library of Essential Information at a much
more attractive price than a multi-volume encyclopedia.
And we can show you a list of some 19 schools in Huron that use
the Lincoln, making it no stranger to the students in your home.
Librarians, too, say that because of its more moderate cost, its
high nuality, its conciseness and ease of use it is ideal for the home
or office.
By buying through the TA, a publishing firm, the high
cost of distributing these 4 million word reference
volumes is eliminated resulting in a saving to you.

It wasn't built
in a day.
Somebody didn't just say, "Hey, this is the year for
little economy cars—let's build one," and there appeared a 1972 Volkswagen.
Fact is, 24 years of Volkswagens preceded it.
Each one a little better than the year before.
The idea was that we had a good idea,
So we stayed with it. And improved it. Thousands of times.
That old bugaboo of car makers, new model bugs, was
eliminated years ago.
If there's one thing we learned about making economy cars, it's this:
There's no such thing as an overnight success.

ment and suppository form called

Comrades, I cannot stress
enough the apparent indifferent
attitude of veterans and civilians
alike toward Remembrance Day.
To some it is just another day, To
others a day away from work,
Others feel Remembrance Day
should be 'Celebrated' on the
closest Monday so they can
'enjoy' a long week-end.
If positions were reversed, I'm
sure we could depend on 'Them'
to Remember, 'They' would be
happy to. Comrades, the freedom
we enjoy came at great cost, the
lives of our Fallen, let us not
forget the Solemn Obligation we
assumed when becoming a
member of our Great
Organization.
I charge you with it, Comrades
and urge you to set all aside and
muster with us at the Anglican
Church, Lucan on Sunday,

which we will meet at our
Cenotaph for our Act of
Remembrance.
Our comrades of Ilderton will
host the Remembrance banquet
this year at 7.30 p.m. November
11 at the Ilderton Legion, Hall. All
veterans are welcome to attend.
The following is the inscription
on a memorial in Burma - it
reads.
'When you go home
Tell them of us and say
For your tomorrow,
We gave our today.
