The Citizen, 2000-02-23, Page 21THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 2000. PAGE 21. Anniversary tulips celebrate bond between countries It was a great find for the Huronlea Auxiliary when several quilting squares were discovered. The Auxiliary is putting together the quilt and will raffle it off to raise funds for the residents’ council. Involved in the project are, from left: Audrey Cardiff, Kathy Bridge, Edna McLellan, Viola Kirkby, Leona Armstrong and Elsie Smith. Little Samantha Thyssen came along with grandma Kathy for the outing. The auxiliary invited others to help with the quilt or attend their regular meetings on the third Monday of the month at 10 a.m. at Huronlea. Continued from page 2 Did you know that the Legion was formed in 1926 to help young Canadians return to civilian life after WWI and maintain an effort to ensure they receive the support they needed? There are half a million members in 1,600 branches. The Legion contributes $30 million each year through charitable donations, seniors housing and health, youth sports and education programs. We welcome you to join in the Royal Canadian Legion’s 75th Anniversary Celebrations by purchasing Legion tulip bulbs. The tulip is the symbol of a special bond between the Netherlands and Canada. The Canadian tulip tradition started with an annual gift of bulbs from the people of The Netherlands to say thank you to Canadians who liberated Holland during WWII. Each year the Dutch Royal family sends a gift of tulips that grace. Canada’s capital each spring. Tulips are available by contacting the Legion at 887-6562 or myself at 887-6570. They are priced at 10 for $6 or 100 for $55 and are available in Legion Gold, Legion Crimson and Legion Brilliant. The general meeting for all members is Monday, Feb. 28 at 8 p.m. 20 years serving Brussels & area RESIDENTIAL • COMMERCIAL • AGRICULTURAL Complimentary Estimates, Drawings and Consultation Over 25 years experience - Licensed Carpenter EVERT STRYKER PRRm POWER a total, reliable fuel service • Ethanol Gasoline • Clear Diesel • Dyed Diesel • Furnace Oil BELGRAVE CO-OP AUBURN CO-OP ^357-2711 OR 1-800-267-2667____________ 526-7262 r~ ^Frank Workman Electric •Farm *Home •Commercial R.R. #3, V 887-6867 7 RR #4 Brussels V (519) 887-9291 J < ALLAN FRETZA WELDING & REPAIR Tel: (519) 887-9707 Fax: (519) 887-9163 ’ Custom Built Loaders * Tractor Attachments ' Buckets' Bucket cutting edge replacement ■ Bucket quick fit plates* Stone or Manure Forks ’ Pallet Forks ‘ Lawn Sprayers Snow or Silage Blades (plastic) RR #3 Brussels Products also available ______at Radford Autoy Large & Small Trucks fridgecarts - piano dollys- moving blankets Complete Selection of Cars Our rates qualify for insurance replacement Passenger Vans full size or mini STRICKLANDS , 344 Huron Rd. 524-938.1 . \GODERICH 1-800-338-1134 / r - COMPLETE MECHANICAL SERVICE - COMPUTERIZED TUNE-UPS - TIRES - BRAKES MUFFLERS - VEHICLE INSPECTION STATION DAN'S AUTO REPAIR RR 3, Blyth, Ont.
