Canadian Legion and Blyth. Centre for the Arts which is sponsoring the building program. Sheila Richards, president of the board of directors of the Centre for the Arts said it was fitting that the sod turning, took place. on Remembrance Day since the budding was constructed in 1920 as a memorial to the. dead of World. War 1. ''The expansion and busy schedule of use of the building makes it .a living memorial", she Said. As well as updating the present building . which' houses a 480 seat theatre, a Meeting hall and kitchen, the building program includes an addition containing between 3000 and 4000 square feet of *space for a new box office, administradon offices, dressing rooms; work shops, storage space for sets and costumes and a community crafts room. In addition a amp for the ease of entry by handicapped and a wishrOorn for the. handicapped are included in • Stag for Matt Haney Saturday, Nov. 17th $2 00 STAG- for Don Ryan Saturday, Nov.17 'the family Marlon *id Jane VINCENT forlis rehitheit, friends and indelthootra le as Open Heusi kumr 4411.0littitda 25th Wedding Anniversary . 1.11.14eitottlitt it* Sat• NoV24 trio 2 « Sp.o.ammlireis 84180.as. siotyIuaIs the ptoject.. 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 government, the Capital Support Branch of the Ontario Ministry of Culture and Recreation, the Community Centres Branch of the"MrnititrY of Culture and Recreation and Wintario. cenotaph in Victoria Park on Sunday morning.

The province was asked to repave Goderieh St from the town's eastern limits tothe area repaved in 1978. Larry Seymour was hired to replace Ron Johnston on the public works crew, at 35.30 per hour.

Remeinbrance Day will become another meaningless holiday if the suggestion that Rementhrance Day be put on, the Monday nearest November 11 so that the civilian population can enjoy a long. weekend is adopted, Remembrance Day is meant for exactly that – re- membrance. For God's sake let us. not let anyone tamper • • • 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 in the hearts of those who wish to give that and that is enough," Concluded Mr. Rickard. `'Lest we forget.'. 3:00 p.m. Christmas pudding & cakes & mincemeat.
