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.

There were 18 ven­ dors with a variety of knitting, craft­ ing, crocheting, woodworking, food products, gift baskets, jewellery and more. There was a steady stream of peo­ ple, who took in the show along with the Christmas home tour. Sunday was a windy and dark day due to the lack of hydro, so the crowd was smaller. The Saturday euchre had 14 tables at play downstairs. The winners of the day included Charlie and Sandra Cameron with 78 points, Lloyd and Lillian Appleby with 76 points ano Tom and Eileen Sloan with 75 points. Low prize went to Gloria Love and Betty Hulley with only 44 points. 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. 22.
