What wo* xqu do if Por eoi a was) to tell you that thele was going to be a third world war next Wednesday And that you were supposed to fight In it? I think I'd MI When the first and, second " World wars were announced probably a lot of people did cry but there was no choice,. many had to go out and fight. Since this Sunday is Remen:, branlce . Day, I asked some kids! around Seaforth: how they felt about war and the people who fought. June Rivers of Seaforth said "We're to remember all of the soldiers that died and. ,stuff like that. I feel deeply moved stick! don't think it's fair they had to die. I feel Sony, forthe soldiers and their wives," The wives must have been really hurt to find that their husbands hadadled. The men must have been, hurt also to see some of their friends and. chums die right in front of - their eyes. The main problem with the war was, that so many people were killed in it. "If the soldiers hadn't fought we wouldn't have the free- dom that we have. today, but 1 don't think'they had to kill each other," June said. Another questlon °that I asked a few of the kids was, "If I phoned you up and I told you that there will be a war nextfiuesday, would you want to fight or stay at home and hope that we win. Rhonda Farig of Seaforth said "If there was going to. be a war ` I'd , fight to have peace. 1 wouldn'tbe scared because other people lost „their livea'for us so we should bewilling to lose our lives for. others." Rhonda: also said that Remembrance Day is a day that we think' about people who fought for us. "The' people were brave and nice W lose theirr lives' for us. They did that so that we'd have peace in our land."

Others fought and, they sur. vived„ We mutst remember the,>n When we go to, fhe ceno- taph next Sunday, we will stand there and remember those we knew who died- in the war, each: for our own different reasons. Perhaps we lost an uncle, grandfather, father, neigh- bour or just a close friend in the war. The ones who will have it the roughest are the veterans; who survived the war(s) with. memories of , their dearest friends getting shot by the opposition, Those memories: of the blood and bodies lying; on the ground will probably haunt them forever. Sure, they were the lucky ones, that lived, but many of them are ,injured for life and. will always°'remain in hosp- itals. These too are the people that we must retnetn ber on Remembrance Day. We seem to think that the only people worth remem- bering are those that died in the war, not those .veterans that fought just as hard but lived to tell about it.. tweens and encyclopedias but nothing could tell' me more than a veteran, of .the war," Going, to the cenotaph is a chance to say that we re- member the soldiers and. thank you' for giving our country the freedom that it has today, Let'sall attend the Legion service this: Sun- day. We go to the cenotaph once a year, Tosay thanks to the soldiers brave,, Who fought for our country a few years agog And now lie in their grave.. Some gave up their lives and:• friendships, To fight for the country they loved, Now they remain in our hearts, Although they re with their Father above.
