The Legion's 60th Birthday, with the main celebrations starting in May. But it will be more than a celebration of a memorable past, of 60 years of service. To the Legions credit, it will also be a year of looking to the future. The Legion is making this a highly sym- bolic year; in which.itAfficially recognizes that it is now time for a change of command, as it were. It is time for veteran members to begin the process of handing over the responsibility for the Legion to the younger generation. This process of evolution has been ar- ticulatedlby Comrade Steve Dunsdon, Domi- nion President, "The Era of the World War II veteran is passing and the future of the Legion will soon be in the capable hands of our Canadian youth." So as well as reminding Canadians of the Legion's splendid contributions to our way of life, this year's events will also emphasize the continuing process of rejuvenation. This will recognize what has already been happening across the country. Today the Associate members known as the Sons and Daughters of the Legion represents about one 'third of the total membership, and in time they will become the majority. Recognizing this reality, the Legion ex- ecutive has drawn up a new oath of allegiance, whereby the Sons and Daughters will dedicate themselves to uphold the tradi- tions and standards of the Legion and work to ensure the continuation of the Legion itself. Thus the Legion will preserve its original CLINTON NEWS -RECO D, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 10, 1''1 — Page 23 ked°n Breakfast HOSTS WANTED in Clinton Area for KLOMPEN FEEST VISITORS May 17th and 18th suggested charge by hosts:°17. - single '30 - double/per night Also needed: Parking for mobile homes. suggested charge '5/night To apply call: Cory Hoak 482-7190 Toby Rainey 482-3815 TuesJaysa WiIIburger OUR WILLYBURGER IS •'/z Ib. pure beef *Double Cheese -Double Bacon and the works!
