Legion celebrates 60 years • By Kathy Bromley The Legion is celebrating its "Diamond Jubilee" this year to mark 60 years sincei,.it was first organized. The following is my in- terpretation of what the Legion stands for and represents. Legion L - stands for LOYALTY shown for our country by all the men who went off to war to defend it., E - stands for the ENDLESS nights spent by many at home or on the field. G is for the GRATITUDE and GREAT - FULNESS shown for those who returned and the GRIEF shared for those who didn't. J - is for the' INJURIES experienced by all, whether it be physically or mentally. U - is for all of the ORDEAIS each and every man faced. N - is for the NATION we are now, thanks to the dedicated soldiers who risked their lives for us. We are proud to say that we have a World War I Veteran in the Blyth Branch 420 —Kusseli Wrison. Last week had been acknowledged as Legion and Auxiliary week in Canada. To commemorate it, various branches, celebrated it accordingly. In Blyth, tulips were donated to the Grades 1 and 2 of Blyth and Londesboro Public Schools.
