program.
Sheila Richards, president
of the board of directors of
the Centre for the Arts said it
was fitting that the sod

of use of the building makes
it .a living memorial", she
Said.
As well as updating the

The contract for more than
$200.000 was awarded to
Wayne Stahle Construction
Ltd. of Kitchener. The
building will be complete in
March, 1980.
"The additiCon will go a
long way toward solving
many of the problems our
actors, stage crews and office
staffs have faced during the
first five years of the
Summer Festival," Mrs.
Richards said. "It will also
increase the comfort of our,
patrons through the
handicapped facilities and
the new box office and allow
us to make use of the balcony
in the theatre which has been
unusable because of fire
regulations. It's one more
evidence tif how far the
Summer Festival has
progressed since its founding
in 1975."
The expansion is part of an
on-going program which saw
air conditioning added to the
hall I in 1978.. While
fundraising is ongoing a
substantial portion of the
funds have been provided
through grants from the
department of the Secretary
of State of ,the federal

Mr Rickard said, "Each
one of us know" that without
remembrance, life has.
neither identity, dignity nor
destiny. It is not a bad idea to
remember that men died at
society's command.
Yes, on both sides, soeiety
said go. We went, some of it
was fun, some of us came,
back, but you must
reinember that those who
died did not die laughing.
Honour for the dead lives

wish to give that and that is
enough," Concluded Mr.
Rickard. `'Lest we forget.'.
