This is how guest speaker Rev. Dan Roushorne concluded a spirited speech which paid tribute to the ef- forts of the veterans of both world wars, the Korean conflict, peace- keeping missions and the Gulf War. Roushorne said world events today are forcing us to rediscover the mean- ings and the significance of things that make Canada differer:t from other countries. "What has Canada given to the rest of the world?" he asked. "If it is only grain, or money, or clothing, or anti- quated jet aircraft.... then we have lost everything...and our own souls," Roushorne said. Roushorne told the capacity crowd that Canada is a spared remain who paid the history record Covenant nation which recognizes that God and His purposes stand over and above the nation. He said this is what Canadian soldiers have been fighting for be Cause they were concerned about the— rights h ... rights of free people. "There also have been periods when the national dream has faded and grown din. "Today there is a real dan- ger that our national dream will be- come the forgotten dream," he stressed. Roushorne said our stan- dard of values is so out of focus, we pay oar school teachers a tiny fraction of what we pay big league ball players. "Is hitting home runs more important that giving boys and girls' -an educa- TAKE TIME TO RE ER tion?" "Canadians have to give more to the world, namely our ideals, our faith, our philosophy of life, our con- cept of human dignity, our national dream," he said.

CDCS students remember war CLINTON - Students at the Clin- ton and District Christian School (CDCS) took the opportunity this week to remember the sacrifices of Canadian soldiers during the wars. On Monday, November 11, the students from Grades 4 and 8 at- tended the services at the Clinton Cenotaph. The rest of the students held a Remembrance Day assembly in the school gym. Both the teach- ers and the students participated. Parents and grandparents were in- vited to attend. Many students had participated earlier in the Royal Ca- nadian Legion poetry, essay and poster contest. They are eagerly awaiting the results. Mr. Bos expressed his apprecia- tion on behalf of the staff and the students of CDCS for the Legion personnel. "These men and women help us each year to remember both the horrors of war and the blessings of peace. A fairly large percentage or our children continue to come from homes where, if not the par- ents, then the grandparents actually experienced war in their own coun- try. These grandparents remember, gratefully, the Canadian soldiers OMyKNO � 4.sgcbic 5 oeding3 4 kPsychometry Palm Readings Stars & Numbers Life Readings Your Year Ahead Personal Private Readings Taped Card Readings Career - Love - Money FOR YOUR HOME PARTIES OR A PRIVATE READING CALL GORD COOPER (519) 451-9641 Mon. to Fri. 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. W\...(Strictly for entertainment purposes) �%J qJ Friday November 15 B.W.
