Ask a dozen people about " .. -.the torch ... " which

talking about, on the street today.
Let us add a new dimension to our understanding of
Remembrance Day. Those who went to war were ready
to give their best to build .a better world. Let us dedicate
ourselves on this day to the cause of human decency
and freedom. Let us not wait until injustice, hatred and
fear bring us to the place where war crowds in upon us
again.
One of the Beatitudes refers to this. It does not say,
...Blessed are the peace-hopers or, peacelovers or
peacekeepers " It says, "....Blessed are the

ourselves to the -cause of peaceMAKING.

F. Kelly celebrates90th
birthday at Kilbarchan
(By Mabel Turnbull)

This is hunting season and is
absorbing some men's thoughts
in the community who are feeling'
the urge to take off to Northern'
Ontario where they will be sure of
getting their "count."
This time brings memories to
me of the north country, seeing
cars draped, with deer or moose;
The hunters had got their prize,
especially if it was a much
coveted moose.
In. the ten years I spent in
Muskoka, I never once saw a deer
or moose in its live state. Our own
Huron County provided me with
that thrill.
"Here is my story.''', One
autumn, several years ago,
I would drive into the Bannock-
burn Conservation urea to get the
feeling of Muskoka.
I was driving leisurely along
the little sideroad to the right off
Bannockburn Hill when two deer
leaped across the road in front of
the car and over the fence into the
deep woods. I really got a
surprise. :.
I was conscious of motion in
front of the car but did not realize
what it was until I saw the flashes
of white of the deer when in
flight. I was lucky the deer didn't
hit the. car or I didn't hit the deer.
That was the way it was to be. I
have also two moose stories to
tell.
I still receive the Huntsville
local paper the "Forester" and on
one occasion I read" where a bull
moose wandered into town and
was exploring Main St.
That incident set me thinking
as I always waikeddown Main St.
to school. I think I'd hay,e been
looking for cover. I wopldn't want
to face a moose as they are
dangerous. The police were called'
and he was quietly 'persuaded to
go back into the dense woods
weds hone uti.„
without incident.
On.one occasion some people
from a town near here were
driving across Northern Ontario
at night. The lights of the- car
must have disturbed a moose. He
used the only means at his
disposal to cope with the lights.
He charged the car with all his
might. As a result the moose was
disembowelled and killed and the
five people in the car were taken
" to the hospital.
No one was seriously hurt but
this incidetit was' worth noting. ,.
Frank Kelly celebrated his 90th
birthday. He is enjoying two
beautiful baskets of flowers in
recognition of this important
occasion.

BAYFIELD
[By Rev, EdBaker, Duff's United Church, Walton)
It is nearly sixty years since the guns fell silent on
Armistice Day on a November day. It has been a
generation since the end of the most recent World War
and over 20 years since Korea.
World War I took place at a time when machines
were becoming important. We remember with awe and
admiration the triumphs and enclurAnce of body and
' spirit during those wars; especralf World War I, for
that was the last time when flesh really challenged the ,
machine. By World War II it was a battle primarily of ,,
machines. In'the battle of flesh with a machine, flesh'''
loses. If you don't believe it, Walk in front of a cat:
Is Remembrance Day a time primarily for old soldiers
to remember lost comrades and terrible suffering of the
human soul, and for those of us who never fought to
offer a couple of minutes of thankfulness for their great
gift to keep us free?
It is primarily former soldiers who take the initiative
to celebrate RemembranCe Day, The World War I
veterans are now 80, and the men from World War II
around 50. If we leave it to them the celebration will
soon fade away.
Slogans, you ask? "The War to end war," or "The
war torn ake the world safe for democracy," both leave
rather a bitter taste in our mouth. One great writer
said, "The price of freedom is eternal vigilance," and
that requires more of us than two minutes per year of
remembrance and thankfulness,
Vimy Ridge, Passchendale and 'the Somme were
times when Canadians came of age, part of our growing
up. Although m any nations have come to birth since
then, nationalism is impossible in a world as small and
fragile as ours. We, the nation's of the world, must learn
to co-operate; if we don't -learn to live together
peaceably we will die together.
' What a tragic commentary on a so-called Christian
society that We are ready to mobili e men . and 40
,, resourc:es to wage "total war": but wh that 'war is
over there are pitifully few of either' men i resources
given to clear up the debris of war and build homes and
lives for the future. After the Korean War, I lived there
for a time, where between one and two million refugees
who had lost home, livelihood and often loved ones,
were trying to get on their feet in an overcrowded land.
I was ashamed of the miserably few resources' which
unscathed countries gave to help, either people or
goods. In fact, pco le in the Third. World often claim
that the people w o have started the wars are usually
people froth the so-called Christian countries.
Soldiers have to give their all, their lives if necessary.
some lost, their lives on the battlefield. Some returned
to their regular life.
The Poetn says,
'... To you, from failing hands, we throw; the torch;
be yours to hold it high...
if ye break faith with. us who die,
Noir* Electric wilt gootinue to serve, YOU
with fast, courteous service.
