A kw feathery white clouds drifted lazily overhead and a pale blue sky reached down to touch the darker ocean blue. A full moon and a million • stars shone down to decorate the surface of that peaceful ocean. The patches of twinkling starlight were like jewels of 'God's own crown and all that broke the silence of the night was rolling foam which tell from port ,and starboard bows as HMCS Karnsack knifed her way along that path of yellow rnelluw moonlight. It could have been our road to Heaven. Visible in the distance, the convoy ships were also es.curted by, HM('S Eapa, Portage and Battleford the other three ships (rI Escort (;roup W4 North Atlantic.Squadron Many may have viewed that wonderful, beautiful scene. 1t was one no painter's brush could ever create. It was God's own and indeed a great moment to remember. Each November 11, we remember and honor all service personnel who served and died for their country. , The debt we owe to them can never be reim- bursed, but during our mornents to remember we can only hope through their realm of death that they may have had the privilege to view the true crystal light of God's own crown. In Flanders Fields In Flanders field the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly y Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, sow sunset glow; Loved, and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: 1e) you from failing hands we throw Me torch; he yours to hold it high.. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies. grow In Plunders fields.

Special bargains - at B. Blitzstein's in men's overalls. Big B Brand. Regular $2.00. Sale price $1.49. Made trouble for concert company - What appears to be a miscarriage of justice happened when the bailiff 'from Chesley demanded $10 from the pianist of the musical Eckardts which. had ,played in Chesley the previous night. The young man had' bor- rowed a wrench from a Chesley garage and forgot to return the tool. The law officials agreed to take $6.00 in payment. We think the Chesley officials used poor judgement in this case and were overly officious. 50 years ago ' November 13 ,194,6 , Framework going up - The job of constructing the frame work at the new District .Co- Operati.ve warehcause at the C.N.R. depot is nearing completion.
