At the Branch Legion Ladies Auxiliary begin week with meetin FROM BRUSSELS By Jo-Ann McDonald The week at Brussels Legion began with the Ladies Auxiliary holding it monthly meeting on Monday, March 4 with only a small attendance. They received an invitation, to attend the Seaforth Auxiliary meeting on April 14 at 1:30 p.m. They also received information on Wir,gham Auxiliary's 65th anniversary to be celebrated on, April 20. They received an invitation to attend an open house celebrating Evelyn Carroll's 80th birthday on March 30 at Goderich Branch. It was reported that they have received the maple leaf lapel pin that is to be used for comrades at the funeral home as only veterans can use poppies for funeral services. On Wednesday evening the Zone council meeting was held at our Branch. It was attended by executive members of the Branches in our • zone. It is an evening where presidents report, on how their branches are doing. All important upcoming dates for events, meetings and conventions are announced and the PRO reports are. due at this meeting for the spring. `It was attended by approximately 35 comrades. Special guests were Deputy District Commander Eric Ross, Zone Commander Bob Grey and Deputy Zone Commander Shirley Chalmers. Lunch and a social time followed the meeting. The Friday night supper of lasagna was enjoyed by a good crowd. This week is Irish stew for St. Patrick's. Those wishing to dress in Irish mode, could be in for a prize. The Saturday afternoon crowd was good and the membership draw had no winner. There were happy winners for the meat draws though. Remember, this Saturday is our March fish fry, delicious deep-fried fish in the Branch's secret batter recipe and all the delicious trimmings to go with it.

(Bonnie Gropp photo) Investment ?fawning Counsel" FINANCIAL PLANNING PROFESSIONALS Well - where were you when the lights went out? It was actually rather neat dining by candlelight - yes our meal was cooked already. The after meal reading took a little more thought-finding just the right spot for the candle and my paper. Now I know why reading was done at the table in the days, before hydro; but for the record it can be done from the couch. It's no wonder folks from this area are so adaptable. Spring weather on Friday, sun and rain on Saturday, then the whiteouts on Sunday. It's an adventure just to go outside. I was so disappointed my sure sign of spring didn't hold true. It's equal or better than the rodent and the six-week tale. My first sighting of a little boy peeing in a puddle came on Friday morning in the grocery store parking lot, much to the delight of the shoppers and eventually his mother. Spring can't be too far away! ' The horticulture crew want you to join them for their meetings. It's a good way to shake the winter and think spring. They meet the last Monday of the month at 7:30 p.m. in the Library to think and learn about plants, seeds, bushes and trees, Lyle Brothers has slides for the March 25 meeting and Don Henry of Maitland Manor Nursery will chat at the April 29 gathering. Join them for both. The kids are , enjoying their' holiday March break, catching up on play, visits and sleep. There are lots of planned activities around when they're ready. Check the ads here to see what's happening at the Library, in the community and at the malls. Enjoy the time! Bye now, Betty G. W. Please Recycle To* This Newspaper
