Se ortLtuubeLtd, Phone Our world is a very burdensome; one for a large number of folk. The portion of man includes sprrow aed hardship„ as well as happiness and success. . But why should it be oth- erwise? As I write these words, thick, grey clouds cover the sky. This does not disturb me greatly. I know that tomorrow or the next day, or perhaps even tonight, the clouds will disperse. Root of All Evil There is a reason for the clouds in the sky and it is a good one, or these clifuds would not be there. If, there is no sunshine, then I must create my happiness in some other way. This applies to all of us. There is a reason for the clouds that darken ,our life. Many philosophers contend that the love of money is the main root of evil in our ivorld. Others ex- press their views differently. ThE fairer sex, they say, is the source of the downfall and heartache of many men. Kings, thrones, empires have vanished into the mists' of eternity because of unscrupulous women. The stalwart Boman, Mark An- thony, fell prey to the winsome Egyptian lass, Cleopatra. Romeo languished for the 'beautiful Juliet. Eve caused poor Adam some dis- comfort in the Garden of Eden. I shudder to mention Madame Pomp- adour. We• shall leave her enclos- ed, in the deep, dark pages of His- tory. •Islands in the Sea Some wise wags have stated that women have a definite place in our social order, During the last de- pression one °le•ading economist suggested the following plan as a cure for unemployment: Select two islands in mid -ocean and place the women on one, the men on the other. Every man would be soon building a boat to reach the wo- men's island that no one would be unemployed. Cynics have had their say also. Their view is that men cannot get along with women, nor cannot get along without them. I am inclined to agree with the latter part of this statement. Men, grudgingly admit this more and more each year. The Canadian Legion should take a leading role in proclaiming to the world mankind's debt to woman- hood. We must never forget the deeds of love and the prayers of the women who were forced to re- main at home during two wars. They suffered an acute agony of mind quietly, yet nobly, During World War II young Canadian wo- men served actively with our arm- ed forces, both at home and over- seas, Patriotism Not Enough After the First World War the Ladies' Auxiliary to the• Canadian Legion was organized and claimed the services of many women. Mem- bers of the Auxiliary have either served in the forces or are the wife, sister, daughter or mother of a serviceman. It has its own Con- stitution, elects its own officers, and duly installs them. It is prim- arily concerned with the welfare of service men and women and ,their dependents. _ Branch 151 of the 'Canadian.Leg- ion salutes our Ladies' Auxiliary. We wish thein. well in their en- deavours and commend them to the public. We take pride in pointing to Nursing -Sister Cavell, one of the noblest figures in the history. of the British Empire. Her death at the hands of a German' firing squad was tragic and untimely. Her last observation that 'Patriotism is not ,enough,' has always fascinated me. Talc is not enough to foster our heritage of freedom. Sometimes a life crammed with heroic and un- selfish deeds falls short of the mark• The assurance of the best in life often necessitates' the self- less giving of our life. The men and women who have done this are the ones who recognized that Pat- riotism is not enough.' Try Huron Expositor Want Ads. Phone 41, Seaforth.
