United news The annual Remembrance Day Service for Hensall was held in the United Church on Sunday morning with the Legion, Legion Auxiliary and youth groups parading to the church led by the pipers and the color party, Comrades Murray Traquair, Jim Smale, Margaret Vanstone and Hilda Smale. The Service was conducted by the Legion Padre Rev. Stan McDonald, who spoke on the heroes of our country. He spoke not only of those of families or neighbors who gave their lives, but also those the unknown. They died, he said, not to create new knowledge or new ideas, but to preserve from destruc- tion the things that they knew in their hearts to be worth preserving. In the wars people are faced with deeds or ordinary men and women who were willing to defend with their lives the things they knew were more important than life itself.. The senior Choir sang and ushers were Rick Parsons, Eric ` Mansfield, John Rowcliffe and Dave Brock. Elaine Stebbins greeted the congregation. Following the singing of the last hymn the congregation, led by the pipers, Legion, Auxiliary and youth groups paraded to the Cenotaph for the remainder of the service.
