GORDON SCOTT, P.R.O. This is another week when not• too much has happened in the way of news and reports. With the holi- days ended and meetings soon to start we hope we will have more in the line of reports and news of the legion. Remember all executive members there is a meeting at 8 p.m. at the legion on S 1 11) Thursday (to -nits). Please plan to attend. Owing to a mix up in hall bookings, our Regular meeting will be held on next Tuesday. Sept. 14th at 8:30 p.m. so comrades please remember this and we hope you will plan to attend. Tues., Sept. 14 at 8:30 p.m. Some time ago it was decided we would purchase the lights from the hall at the old community centre. Under the guidance and expertise of our entertainment chairman Jack Muir, this has been accomplished and they are now installed in our banquet hall giving us a far better lighting system. On behalf of the members of the branch we would like to thank Jack for giving up his leisure time and making it possible to up -date our lights, making an improvement on the hall. We are sorry to hear off the death of another of our Comrades of the second war, Charles Murphy. On behalf of the members of the church, we extend our sym- pathies to his wife and f Cly. Age II not weary them nor the years condemn at the going down of the sun and in the morning we will re- member them, This year's ecitement at Huronview occured recently when bees swarmed on a low limb of the old catalpo tree behind normal care. After three days, arrangements were made with Al Galbraith to . come to Huronview to capture the usually long bag - like formation. Fortunately no one was stung! The Sunday morning church service wai held in the new auditorium with- Mrs. Elsie Henderson as organist Two stands on metric On* g©© On dt@ gMff©V/ by Fob Tanaaw 1 have received a dozen or snore letters asking me why 1 have remained silent on the question of metrication. Do 1 support it or not? I've got a mugwump answer: Yes and No. (A mugwump? That's a bird with his mug on on: side of the fence and his wump on the other). I believe that, in the end, metrication will be good for Canada. What 1 do not like is enforced metrication. The Liberal govern- ment has been stubborn and stupid about imposing metrication and it is just al •er sign of Ottawa's arrogance. People of my generation will never get used to metric measurements. A sack of rolled oats is still 100• pounds to me el,en though the mill tells me it's 45 kilos. We will still be talking about acres instead of hectares (2.2 acres) even if the government agent comes up behind us and threatens to slap a fine on us. You get used to what you were taught and grew up with, Farms are laid out in acres. 1 own a house on two acres of land and if the feds want to slap me in jail for saying so. then so be it. Metrication should start in the schools and be allowed to gradually become -fact. If chis country can force all packages to have contents and instructions written in Ibth French and English, surely we can get both measurements on all packages as well for a generation or two, The new measurements would gradually become part of this culture instead of the force-feeding the overpaid bureaucrats of the Metric Commission are trying vainly to enforce. Some murmurings are being heard from government officials which will ease the enforcement. Let's hope those murmurings from the boondocks and the backbenches continue and swell into a roar until this enforcement nonsense is stopped. Speaking of letters, I indicated a month aen that the Christian Farmers Federation was opposed to Ca'nagrex. A letter from Elbert van Donkersgoed, research and policy director for the CFFO. clarifies the point.$ "CFFO has taken no position on Canagrex. We have no objections to the proposal, but we are not pushing it either. Put another way, we don't share Whelan's enthusiasm for what it can do. nor do we share the seige mentality of the Canadian Cattlemen's Association when- ever some form of public enterprise is concerned," said Mr. van Donkersgoed. "We decided some time ago that there were more important issues to which we should be putting our shoulders." 1 read the Christian Farmers Federation's response to the federal Agri -Food Strategy paper in which the federation cautioned that most people outsidc Canada cannot afford Canada's cost of production for food even though it's very chcap for Canadians. The CFFO, in that response. said Canadian farmers should not get to 'the point where they_.dgQend on exports for much of their income. Canagrex is an organization of the federal agriculture minister to help sell Canadian farm products abroad, Therefore, I figured. the CFFO was opposed to Canagrex. Not so. says Elbert, and I thank him for his letter. When letters arrive it is a good indica,ion that somebody out there can read and write. I know it is a busy time of the year for farmers. but 1 really enjoy hearing from you.

On Monday afternoon many residents enjoyed-•-gn hour of "Music Appreciat• ion", in the auditorium.A highlight for Tuesday was the barbecue for first north resi- dents. This was greatly `ap- prrciated. On , Wednesday van ridep were very popular for the day. In the morning several residents travelled to Goderich and in the afternoon other residents enjoyed a drive to Stratford. They espe- cially were thrilled with the view and beauty of the Park, Avon river and the swans. Another afternoon trip was to Exeter, and to Bellview Fruit Farm.

MARYS - Victoria Bridge has received a new lease on life now that the St. Marys town council has decided to call a halt to construction plans and to withdraw calls for tenders which went out last week. But council's unanimous decision was based on principally on the im- practicality and in- convenience of building a new structure during the winter months rather than a change in sentiment as to whether or not a new bridge should be built at all. Despite strong opposition against demolishing the old stone bridge, council was particularly, concerned that new construction would cut off a main transportation route for several months. • • • • • • • • a • • • • • • • • • • • 0 • • • BLADE RUNNER LEGION AUXILIARY NEWS BY BARBARA SCOTT, P.R.O.
