It was a fine sight to behold all
the 'Irish' folk gathered together to
• celebrate 'St. Patrick's Day'. The
'Old Country' tunes "supplied by
Len Maslen had my feet a tappin' or
was it cloggin' and Irish Jim Mur-
phy's famous stew, two grand large
pots of it, were 'gone in the twinkle
of an Irishman's eyes. All in all 1
must say a grand time was had by
all and a Gain tribute to St. Patrick
himself.
Did you know the Legion spon-
sors over 3,500 separate youth pro-
grams groups, including, cadets;
scouts and sports of all types. It is.
the largest single sponsor of scout-
ing in Canada and sponsors more
hockey teams and leagues than any
other one organization in the coup-.
try, (over 700 branches sponsor
hockey).
The president and members of the

Happy Easter and" may the Easter
Bunny be good"to you.

Sunday evening Rev. Roger Ma-
son conducted the service. Rev: Ma-
son told of a baptismal service they
drove over mountain roads to sec in -
Haiti. The whole church` marched
down to the riverside, singing as
they went. The pastors baptized the
converts in the river, with thc vil-
lagers watching behind the bushes.
Keith Dance, read a prayer from a
prayer book he had picked up in a
Baptist Mission in Haiti, written
by Haitian Christians. The prayer
-says that although they are poor,
when they have Jesus they feel they
arc rich.
Harold Porter, also returned from
Haiti, stated he cricd a lot in Haiti
from seeing the poor little children
share what little thcy had. These
children were in the Christian
