Silence a small sacrifice
By Jo-Ann McDonald
“At the going down of the sun and
in the morning, we will remember
them.”
This week the Legion will observe
Remembrance Day, the day that all
Canadians should stop and reflect
and remember the sacrifices made
by 1.5 million Canadians who went
to war for peace and freedom and for
the over. 110,000 who died in service
for their country.
It is only a small sacrifice of our
time to attend Remembrance Day
services or to stop to observe “two
minutes of silence” on Nov. 11 at 11
a.m.
May we all pass on to our families
the tradition for which they stand
and to perpetuate the memory and
deeds of the fallen and to strive for
peace, goodwill and friendship
Why a
poppy?
By Jo-Ann McDonald
Over 66,000 Canadians died dur
ing World War I. Simple wooden
crosses marked their graves, and
soon bright red poppies grew
among them.
Canadian Army doctor John
McCrae made the poppies famous
in his poem. In Flanders Fields.
Today the poppy is still worn as a
symbol of Remembrance. Each
Nov. 11. wreaths of poppies, oak
and maple leaves are placed on war
memorials across Canada.
Everyone wears a poppy to show
their respect for those who have
served our country. But where to
wear it. The proper place to wear
the poppy is on the left lapel above
the heart, as a reminder to keep
those who have fallen in our hearts
and prayers that we never have to
see war again.
What happens to the funds
received in the distribution of the
poppies? The funds raised are used
for financial assistance to needy
Canadian ex-service personnel and
their families, the cost of operating
the poppy campaign for wreath
advertising and other expenses.
There are also other uses that can
qualify with approval from
Command. The funds are never
used for operating costs of a Branch
or other activities.
So when you donate monies for a
poppy, you are directly supporting
our servicemen who came home
with disabilities.
When you wear a poppy, remem
ber, it is because “We will
Remember Them.”
among all.
This past week at the Branch has
been very busy. The Cadets had their
regular meeting on Tuesday evening,
as well as participating in the
Brussels poppy canvass held on
Saturday morning.
The three county mass pipe band
held its annual meeting on Tuesday
evening in the lounge. Piper Bessie
Johnston provided the lunch follow
ing the meeting.
Thursday night darts had a good
crowd taking aim at the boards. The
first-place team was a tie between
Harry Smith and Sandra Josling and
Catrina Josling and Marlene Little.
In the playoff game Smith and
Josling finished the team of Josling
and Little off quickly by skunking
them.
The high starts were shot by Julie
Harrison and Adam Smith.
' Darts are every Thursday night.
The Friday night supper of sweet
-and sour meatballs was well attend
ed. This week is ham and scalloped
potatoes.
The weekend started off with
Cadets and Legion members meet
ing to head off to canvass the town
for the annual poppy drive. There
were 14 Cadets and poppy chairman
Allyson Cardiff assigned areas to the
groups.
Thanks to those who contributed
to the campaign.

the day included Charlie and Sandra
Cameron with 78 points, Lloyd and
Lillian Appleby with 76 points ano
Tom and Eileen Sloan with 75

The lone hand prizes went tp Jean
Bewley and Bush Whittard.
Euchre is every two weeks.
Lots of people dropped in for
lunch on Saturday, and either took in
the craft sale or played euchre. It was
a busy place.
A mystery bus tour from Paisley
stopped in at the Branch later in the
afternoon for a social time. They
were a fun bunch who participated in
the draws and in meeting new
friends.
The singles dance was cancelled
on Sunday due to no hydro.
The general meeting will be Nov.
