Mr. Carl Stuckless,

Dear Mr. Stuckless:
Through the efforts of your
members, Mr. Daley's column
and Mr. Page we are now the
proud owners of 4 tricycles and 6
bicycles.
The children are receiving so
much pleasure from them and
can hardly wait to use them each
day.
Please convey to the members
of legion 540 the thanks of the
children and teachers here at
Huron Hope School.
I am enclosing a couple of
snapshots which you may wish to
post on your bulletin board along
with this letter as a sign of our
appreciation.
Sincerely,
(Mrs.) Eleanor Scott, B.A.
Principal.
And a very special Thank You
to all the • lovely people who
responded to our plea, donated
bicycle parts and assisted in any
way in making this a successful
project.

tertainment following the

and is survived by a daughter,
Mrs. Robert 0. (Edith) Spence of
Atwood, and a foster son, Nor-
man Schell of Shakespeare.
She is also survived by three
grandchildren and two great-

Ball Funeral Chapel, St. Marys,
where the funeral service was

May 28 was most successful.
Thank you for your support and
assistance to Branch 540's youth
programs. The following named
are the winners who split the
grand prize: A Morley, Lucan; J.
Attrill, London; S. Sceli, Gran-
ton; F. DuBerry, Huron Park.
Don't forget, Comrades,
branch meetings recess during
the months of July and August.
Therefore your next meeting
called for June 9 will be the last
until the fall. Do your best to
attend. There are several im-
portant issues to be resolved
prior to the recess. See you there.
However, just because
meetings recess during the
summer months, this doesn't
mean the branch closes down - No
way, Comrades. There will be
plenty of action in the Sea, Land
and Air lounge..
By the way, Comrades, the
piano in the Sea, Land and Air
lounge has finally tit the dust'
and we are getting a little (ahem)
too old to be lugging the upstairs
piano up and down stairs as it is
required - besides this is hard on
the instrument and every time it
is moved it should be re-tuned.
Therefore, we are in the
market for a used piano for the
Sea, Land and Air lounge at a
"reasonable" cost, If you know of
such a piano, please give Smilin'
Carl a call at 227-4751.
Smilin' Carl advises Saturday
will see the last entertainment
for this season. The Country
Tones will be in the lounge to
entertain you. However, for
entertainment during the sum-
mer months we have the Hi-Fi
and if we manage to locate a
piano, there are many of our
comrades and friends who can
tickle the ivories.
DATES TO REMEMBER
Every Thursday night is Bingo.
June 9 - General Meeting.
June 11 - Installation meeting
and social.
And that's 30 for this week.
Remember - Whether a man
winds up with a nest egg or a
goose egg depends upon the kind
of chick he marries!
