Attended an interesting and
informative meeting of the Royal
Canadian Legion Full xectitiVe
Council held in Toronto last
weekend. The portion of the
meeting which obtained the most
attention was the report of the
provincial chairman of the
A.C.T.I.O.N. Committee (A C-
ommitment T-o I-mprove 0-ur
N-ation) and the discussion which
followed.
The discussion was held as a.
forum with representatives from
Dominion Command, Ottawa
Regional Chairmen plus the
Provincial Chairman.
These Comrades answered
many pertinent questions
relating to this Canada wide
Legion program and cleared up
many controversial areas. I
am sure these will be brought to
the attention of all branches by
the various Zone and District
Commanders.
One thing that I did learn and
that is, This program must and
does start at the grassroots
branch level. So get with it
Comrades, next time you see a
Commander at any level, get
after him to explain the program,
he should have the answers.

Mr. & Mrs.Aljoe Culbert at-
tended the Brock-Hendrie
wedding in St. Christopher's
Anglican Church in Burlington
Saturday, September 20. The
bride is the daughter of Mr. &
Mrs. Jack Brock, formerly of
London and granddaughter of
Mr. & Mrs, Alfred Culbert of
Ipperwash.
Family and friends of Mrs.
Catherine Fischer were on hand
to celebrate her eightieth birthday
at Coldstream Community Hall
on the weekend. The Fischer
,Orchestra of Kitchener played
for the occasion.
"We've had about eight
families that have shopped with
us from the very first days in ,
business," said Mr. Paul. "Let's
see, there were the Wilkinsons,
the Hodgins, Hasketts, Stanleys,
Parks and Egans."
Mr. Paul had a heart attack a
little over a year ago and decided
to slow down. He intends to enjoy
his cottage more now that he will
be free of duties at the store.
Across the windows of Mr.
Paul's store are large glass jars
filled with candy. Two little
kiddies walked by with their
motherandimanagedl to receive a
dime for some candy.
"These are some of my best
friends," said Mr. Paul with a
kind smile and a pat on the head.
"We always kept the loose penny
candy. The kids love it."
As the youngsters took their
little bags back onto the street,
Mr. Paul seemed concerned as he
commented sadly, "I don't know
where they'll get their candy
once we're ,closed."
Galbraith of Lachute and bring
her back to Lucan as his bride.
Mrs. Paul passed away in 1968.
The couple had one son Randy, an
accountant who lives in Wean,
In 1948, the Paul's switched to a
Superior Store and moved across
the road to the store's present
location. Prior to that, the store
was a Ward Shoe Store.
"Over the years, costs rose
very slightly and actually
groceries were fairly stable until
about five years ago," Mr. Paul
recalls. "Then they seemed to
rise crazily."
Mr, Paul estimates that only
about half of the residents of
Lucan do their grocery shopping
in the community. Many, he said,
who work in London, are at-
tracted to the large shopping
malls. Despite the number
shopping in the city, Mr. Paul
found that business was steady as
the population of the village rose
from about 600 when he first
arrived to its present population
of 1,500.
Whatever the project, call on us for
A familiar face on the business
section of Lucan for the past 37
years, George Paul will soon be
closing the doors at Paul's
Superior store for the last time.
Reflecting on his years in
business in Lucan, Mr. Paul
remembered how operating a
grocery store was much dif-
ferent than today. Sugar, raisins,
dates and many other com-
modities were purchased in bulk
and labouriously repackaged in
smaller containers right at the
grocery stores.
"When I started out across the
road there, where Haskett
Motors is located now, I graded
my own eggs and took in dairy
butter from farmers in exchange
for other groceries." said Mr.
Paul with a smile as he
recollected the days when he
operated a Red and White store.
Mr. Paul came to Lucan from
Lachute Quebec on May 23, 1938,
his hometown about 40 miles
north of Montreal. He had
received his education in Lachute
before going with the Bank of '
Nova Scotia for 11 years as a
relief staff member working all
over Quebec and eastern Ontario.
Less than a month after his
arrival on the business scene in
Lucan, he returned briefly to
Lachute, just long enough to
marry Margaret (Reta)
