(Jack Holland)
Well comrades, back again with
bits of news. First of all the Le-

the Ladies Auxiliary for their ef-
forts in feeding dozens of young-
sters last Saturday morning.
These young lads are the hockey
players sponsored annually by the
Legion. And speaking of hockey,
remember this, Saturday night
March 25 will be Hockey Night in
Seaforth with the presentation of
trophies and awards to the out -

The various team captains of
the bowling teams inform me that
on Legion Night (every Friday)
the competition is getting keener
each week and it won't be long
before the play-offs, This has
been a real source of enjoyable
entertainment over the winter
months.
As customary our monthly so-
cial is held on the last Friday of
each month, but George Hays our
entertainment. chairman tells me
that on account of Good Friday
the social will be held on the pre-
vious night (Thursday) instead,
so keep the change of date in
mind, The membership dues have
been extended to the end of the
month so all who have not got
them paid let this be a gentle re-
minder. I believe this is all for
now comrades, so will close with
this thought, At the going down
of the sun and hi the morning we
shall remember theta.

THE LEGION CORNER
(Jack Holland)
Well comrades, back again with
bits of news. First of all the Le-
gion expresses their thanks to
the Ladies Auxiliary for their ef-
forts in feeding dozens of young-
sters last Saturday morning.
These young lads are the hockey
players sponsored annually by the
Legion. And speaking of hockey,
remember this, Saturday night
March 25 will be Hockey Night in
Seaforth with the presentation of
trophies and awards to the out -
on sale.
The various team captains of
the bowling teams inform me that
on Legion Night (every Friday)
the competition is getting keener
each week and it won't be long
before the play-offs, This has
been a real source of enjoyable
entertainment over the winter
months.
As customary our monthly so-
cial is held on the last Friday of
each month, but George Hays our
entertainment. chairman tells me
that on account of Good Friday
the social will be held on the pre-
vious night (Thursday) instead,
so keep the change of date in
mind, The membership dues have
been extended to the end of the
month so all who have not got
them paid let this be a gentle re-
minder. I believe this is all for
now comrades, so will close with
this thought, At the going down
of the sun and hi the morning we
shall remember theta.
