(Photo submitted) FROM BRUSSELS At the Branch By Jo-Ann McDonald The Brussels Legion Branch will soon be back to normal upstairs as the floor was redone and finished this past week. The Cadets and Beavers will return to the normal use of the auditorium next week. Darts on Thursday night was back to the usual dozen people but they had lots of fun. Anyone is welcome to come out and try. Friday night's supper of ham and scalloped potatoes was well attended. Next week is lasagna. Comrade Doreen Rutledge is in Seaforth hospital. We wish her a speedy recovery. It is 85 years ago on April 9 that the major assault ..on Vimy Ridge began. It was dawn when all four divisions of the Canadian Corps moved up the slope behind a well- timed artillery barrage. The ridge was captured in three days but not before the Canadians suffered 10,602 casualties, including more than 3,500 dead. The Ridge was important to the German's defense system because it gave a commanding view of the countryside and was near coal deposits used to fuel the furnaces that manufactured military hardware. Previous attempts had failed because it was so well fortified but the Canadians made elaborate plans and practised their tactics and roles on simulated terrain. The combined assault by the French near Reims and British mound Arras and with the Canadian objective of Vimy Ridge, it has always been known as the beginning of the end of WWI. Although our numbers of WWI veterans are dwindling, it is our duty as Canadians to make sure that their contributions to the war effort are never forgotten, The victory of Vimy Ridge in April of 1917 is one of Canada's greatest military achievements and should be remembered along with the sacrifices of our fallen and wounded veterans. It is the month of April and elections are to take place at the general meeting on April 29. We are asking all members to ask themselves how they can be more involved. Contact Rick McDonald, Gary Dauphin or John Harrison. • A NOTE FROM BETTY We have lots to celebrate again this week. The Optimist/Firemen event was a huge success with everyone enjoying the evening in good company, well fed and happy besides. Good work guys and again thanks from the community. Nelva Scott is home from hospital and we're hoping all goes well for her. Seth Snyder survived a new grandmother's babysitting. We'll tell him about it later. Huronlea is open to visitors. Now that's good news. Except for the white stuff and wind we could almost think it might be spring. It is so good to see the green shoots peeking out of the dirt. Some in the sheltered places look wonderful. If there was a prize for the best crocus displays last week — Jeanne Ireland's stone garden would have won the prize for colour and variety. Thanks Jeanne. It's income tax time, in case you missed the fact. So get all your wee hunks of paper together and smile - ha! Once and again we have folks who missed the fact that we were moving the clocks ahead on Saturday, so Sunday morning was a little rushed for some and for others they just decided to stay longer in bed. The Majestic Women's Institute hosted a euchre party in the Brussels Library on Thursday April 4. The prize winners were as follows: high lady, Jean Bewley; low lady, Lois Schneider; high man, Allan Edgar; low man, Bill Craig; most lone hands, Helen Gallop, Viola Adams, Mery Schneider, Stewart Musgrove, Elunid McNair and Jeanne Ireland. Share-the-wealth draw was won by Elunid McNair. Lucky draws went to Yvonne Knight, Leslie Knight, Mary Craig, Isabel Craig and Leona McDonald. On Thursday, April 25, the Majestic WI is having a casserole supper followed by euchre with proceeds going to the Canadian Cancer Society. Now who are the smart ones? Enjoy the week while you pick up the debris that winter has left for us. Bye how, Betty G. W.
