A very happy and historic
occasion took place in Denfield
Baptist Church on Tuesday
September 21. The Baptist
Women's Missionary Society of
Denfield celebrated one hundred
years of mission and witness.
The Dorcas Mission Circle as it
is known today held its first
meeting in 1876 with Mrs. (Rev.)
E, W. Dadson as president with
seven charter members.
The afternoon session took the
form of interest groups with
representatives from B.W.M,S,
Circles in Middlesex and Lamb-
ton counties. Mrs. T. Morikawa
led the discussion on Missions,
Mrs, E. Madden, Prayer and
Mrs. R. Wilson on Family
Relationships.
Before supper the guests had
an opportunity to renew
acquaintances, buy Christian
reading material supplied by the
Canadian Bible Society or look
over the historic displays. The
guests enjoyed a bountiful supper
after which Mrs. Edna Rosser,
our oldest member cut the
Centennial cake, made and
decorated by another talented
member Mrs. E. Holland.
Many friends and guests joined
in for the evening service lead by
the president Mrs. Verda
McDowell, Mrs. G. Carless lead a
song service of old and favorite
hymns. Mrs. B. McKinley of
Zurich played the mariniba, a
very unusual instrument with a
beautiful sound. Mrs. Carless
also sang a solo accompanied by
Mrs. D. Milligan on the organ.
Mrs. (Rev,) O. H. Maude a
former minister's wife gave a
tholightful, devotional message.
The guest speaker for the evening
was Mrs, Gladys Allen of Wind-
sor, the first vice-president of the
Looks as though .the warm
weather has had it, sure hope we
have a half decent Indian
Summer as I know there is a lot
of us that have quite a few outside
jobs to get finished prior to the
arrival of the white stuff -
burrrrr.
Members of the Legion are
reminded the Branch Early Bird
Campaign is under way. How
about getting your dues paid up
now? Inflation hasn't hit them up
to date and they are the best buy
in town - Still only $12 for the
year and this includes your
subscription to the National
Magazine 'LEGION'.
Comrade Bill Smith and I will
act as co-chairmen for Operation
Service, which incidentally gets
under way the early part of
October. We have held and have
B,W.M.S. of Ontario and Quebec,
whose words of encouragement
will help us to strive always
onward. The service oncluded
with the old hymn "Jesus Saves"
this being the rally song and used
at every meeting in the early
years.
attended several organizational
meetings, there is one more to go
and then, my Comrades, we will
be calling upon you the members
of the Legion and this means all
classifications, to avail your-
selves to make certain this most
important service to ex-service
men and women and i or their
dependants does not fail.
We have a \solemn obligation to
uphold - remember it - 'May
their sacrifice ever inspire us to
labour on, to the end that those
who survived and need our aid
may be assured of assistance.'
This is it Comrades, here is
where we can let all ex-service
personal, be they members of the
Legion or not, know their rights
under Veterans Legislation. We
will be making use of the
telephone very, shortly looking
for team captains.
Comrade Bill and I will hold a
meeting with you and explain
what is expected, and let me
assure you the procedure laid on
by Command is very simple and
straight forward and no one
should experience any difficulty.
• We anticipate it shouldn't take
the canvassers any more than a
couple of days to complete the
Lucan Legion coverage area.
However it will take Comrade
Bill and I quite a bit longer to'
calculate the final result.
Remember the Legion is not
selling anything. This is a free
service and it is our earnest
desire that every Ex-service
person and their dependants be
contacted. From pilot programs
it has been learned that many of
our Comrades were not aware of
their rights under Veterans
Legislation, which through the
years has broadened, and it is the
Legion's Aim to bring this to their
attention.
Attended a Branch Officers
Seminar at Victory Branch,
London over the weekend with
Comrades from District 'A' and
'B' in attendance. I have been a
member of the Legion for quite a
few years and let me tell you I
came away from the meeting
feeling that the time was well
spent.
It was just like a refresher
course, it brought back to mind
points forgotten and reminded us
of the proper procedures to follow
and the responsibilities of the
various positions in Legion from
President down.
The Command Officers who
conducted the seminar are to be
congratulated - It was well
'prepared, well presented and
most interesting - seminars
such as this tend to become
boring - let me assure you this
one was far from that and kept
the interest of 411 in attendance.
And that's 30 for this week -
Remember - People who are
nuts take sanity for granted.
