Eaton Insurance Agency Limited Office in Masonic Block Main Street Phone 527.1610 — Seaforth Newt of Auburn C.W.L. MEET The C.W.L. meeting was held In the parish hall Tuesday even- ing with seventeen present. It was the Christmas meeting and featured an exchange of gifts.

Instead of giving candies at Christmas an equivalent amount of cash will be sent to missions in care ,of Father Cherio. Following discussion on changing tame for Mass during the winter months it was adeed to mike no change. Father Cosino spoke on Christmas giving and sharing THE GIFT OF LIFE At this time of the year we all seem to be more aware of the joy of living. All too often, however, we take the preciouS gift of life for granted as we do our freedom, The men who helped to preserve the freedom which was threatened by two world wars were ordinary peace- loving men. Their outlook on war was as varied as their per- sonalities. .Their reasons for. joining the Forces were not always the same. Although there is no doubt that they were spure red on by patriotism; some joined for adventure, others because their roots were deep in the Old Country, some for security as their luck had been hard in peace-time because jobs were scarce just prior to both.World Wars, and there were some who `realized that the fall of the Great Britaineesould eventually. lead to the overthrow of Canada. No matter what their reason for joining the military services, they went to war and did what they could to help. Many thous- ands never returned. They had given their most priceless gift for Peace On Earth. The many who did return never expected to see Canada again. When World Wars I and II were over there were hundreds of thousands of men suddenly faced with the joyful fact that they were able to finally go back- to join their loved ones. These men who had faced death many times were suddenly de- livered from the fear of death. The exhilaration of their spirits was overwhelming and they were made fully aware of the precious gift of life. There are 298,320 of these men serving the Royal Canadian Legion today all across Canada Couple Honored At Party Mr. and Mrs. George McCall were guests at a dinner party at the home of Mr. arid Mrs. John A. Perrie on Friday even- ing When relatives gathered to honor them on their 25th wedding anniversary of December 14th. They have one son Bill, who works at Stratford'and was pres- ent for the occasion.
