Notice of the application was published in advertisements appearing Thursday `in weekly newspapers covering the four Huron County townships. The land is required for part of a power corridor linking the nuclear power station at Douglas Point to the Ontario electrical grid at a point near Kitchener. Hydro intends to construct high-tension power lines on the Zf/kb.iu'tls markable thini; hap - the conference I atten- erusalem last year.

He did a complete turnabout arid one of the yard- sticks of a person being sin- cerely effected by Christ is a change in his attitudes. - Jesus' comment was, 'This shows that salvation has come to this home today'. Many of us say, we are Christians, . but where is the change in our lives? We all steal. Oh, we may hot pad the books, 'or evade taxes or even rob the children's piggy bank, but we all steal. We pilfer time by foolishly frittering it away instead of using it wor- thily and honestly. We steal peace of mind from people by deliberately implanting ' their "minds with doubts. We steal virtue by carrying on gossip about someone. We steal life from ourselves by living dangerously and intemperately. Many of us rob something from someone a dozen :times a day. We all need God's forgiveness just as- surely as.-tll,e worst holdup man. .The great thing about it is that it's"there for thQ asking.

This proposed corridor will connect transfor- mer stations to be built at Wingham and Seaforth. Approving authority of the expropriation bid is the Ontario Ministry of Environment, the Hydro advertisement says. Ac- cording to the advertisement, land owners - can seek an inquiry within 30 clays of receiving notice of the intent to expropriate. Inquiries will be conducted by an inquiry officer appointed .by the justice minister and the attorney - general, it says.

Almost 30 years have passed since those years and we, the older generation who , attend the Remembrance Day services in our churches and at the cenotaph, do not forget. Evbn today some who were fortunate enough to return to life in the beast nation in the world, Canada, still bear wounds either visible -or invisible of those conflicts of 1914-18, 1939- 45 and 1950-53, Not having lived through those periods it is impossible for the younger generations of today to remember but it is not impossible for them, regardless of age, to participate in remem- ance. They can do so by nking about citizenship oday and deciding how well •they have kept the faith with those who gave the world a second chance.

Twelve veterans in need were rendered .emergency aid from this fund which is a trust fund administered by the Branch Welfare Committee. The monies from the sale of wreaths and poppies also sup- port the disabled veterans at Vetcraft in Toronto who make these items and the Ontario Command Service Bureau whose officers visit Branches to help veterans or their depen- dents who need assistance with war pensions.
