Remembrance banquet speaker issues. challenge Vets must do teaching jobs Guest speaker Major George Youmatoff built his talk to those at- tending the Hensall Legion's Remem- brance Day dinner around the foot- note which appears on all official Legion stationery: "They served till death. Why not we?" Expressing pleasure at the sight of so many young Legion members, Youmatoff said the Hensall branch was doing exactly what the Royal Canadian Legion is supposed to do - educating the oncoming generation that there is a better way to settle arguments than bloody war. Speaking as a professional soldier, Youmatoff said he is prepared to fight again, but would rather not. And he does not want to see his grandchildren go to war. He stressed negotiation as the only way to save this global household from belligerent men who start fights to further their own wild ambitions. "We are our brother's keeper. It is up to us who have been in contact with the horrors of war to infect those who have not. War is not glorious, but messy and heartbreaking. The Legion's job is to teach this, and the community's responsibility is to listen", Youmatoff asserted. Youmatoff conceded that the "war to end all wars", fought in two in- stallments, is not over yet. It partial- ly succeeded, as the years since have seen only minor blow-ups.

Youmatoff said he was thankful Canada has taken on the role of peacekeeper in places like Cyprus and the Congo. "As sane, thinking adults we have one obligation," Youmatoff told his audience. "That is to give our kids the opportunity to grow up to be sane, thinking adults. That is the way wisdom and peace will come into this world." The major spoke from first-hand experience. He was born in Russia and came to Canada with his parents in 1925. He grew up in Montreal. Youmatoff went overseas with the Royal Canandian Engineers in 1939, switched to the armoured corps in 1941, and entered Sandhurst two years later. After graduating from the famous English military college, Youmatoff was loaned to British Intelligence and was with the Soviet army from 1944 until the end of the war, going as far as Russia.

Here is a run down of our busy week that we would like to share with you. Monday afternoon was time for our bingo session with the Bethal Reform- ed Church ladies, who came in to call out numbers and lead a hymn sing. Tuesday, November 11, Queensway went over to Hensall Public School for a Remembrance Day service put on by the children. It was a beautiful ceremony that made us look back and remember. We would like to give a warm thank you to Mrs. Elsie Mathers for volunteering her time on this Remembrance Day morning. In the afternoon Reverend Bob Sinisac came in and gave a very powerful and captivating service per- taining to the Remembrance Day theme. Even though it's November, we are already gearing up for Christmas at Queensway. For example, on Thurs- day afternoon the Health Care Aides from Conestoga College put on a Christmas dance with special enter- tainment; The Huron Strings. We all danced, clapped and got in the Christmas spirit. It was a very special afternoon! Our movie for the week was entitl- ed; "Enduring Animals". It was a wilderness movie showing us Canada's natural beauty. The film really gave us an insight into Canada and the beauty that surrounds us. Friday afternoon was time for choir practice, while Joyce Pepper accom- panied us on the piano. There was a super turn -out, and lots of fun! Finally, Sunday afternoon Jack Duncan, Ivan Norris and Jim Young (got it right this time fellas!) came in to entertain us while we sipped our tea. It was a very busy and entertain- ing afternoon. Well that's it, we'll talk to you next week! Quote of the week: "The greatest artist was oncea beginner."
