Legion members view successful show
This past Saturday night the 60th
niversary Committee sponsored "Hits
the Blitz" at the'High:School. This was
exceptionally good show and brought ba
many memories of the War Years. At th
close of the show the singers and acto
were given a standing ovation second
none. Seaforth could do with more ente
tainment of this calibre. Thanks of th
Branch are due to all those who helped
any way to make 'this production the su
cess it was.
The members would like to wish D
and Anne Wood all the best on their
Wedding Anniversary,
The fall District Convention was held
Sunday in Owen Sound with approximat
ly 450 delegates in attendance. One of th
most interesting aspects of the meetin
was the donations made to the Charitabl
Foundation and the Bursary Program
These donations were made by the vario
delegates from their individual Branches
the sum of $12,250 for Bursaries an
.$18,500 for the Foundation. Hospitals ma

education. Also $8,750 was donated to
Parkwood Hospital for Veterans who live

Mental health
The Huron County chapter of the Cana-
dian Mental Health Association is looking
for people willing to Step Forward.
They'd be people who could give one
night a week, or some time once or twice
a month, toward such activities as bowl-
ing or just companionable walks, says
Barb Ancio, chairperson of the Huron
County CMHA Steering Committee. The
Steering Committee is holding a xeeting
at noon on Wednesday, Oct. 25, at North
Street United Church.
Step Forward, which meets Tuesday
nights throughout the year, is a group
aimed at people who have been diagnos-
ed as having mental health problems or
people who are just having emotional
problems.
"They get support from structured
group activities," Ancio said. The
volunteers' wouldn't be ,a teacher or ad-
visor, but "just a friend." With the help
of the volunteers, the Step Forward
members draw up a schedule of activities
for each month.
Volunteers should be people who are

What is Coffee Break? This is a women's

growth in Jesus Christ. An accompanying
Story Hour program for three to five -year-
olds, along with a nursery for infants and
toddlers, create a real break during the
week for mothers with young children.

3,700 study groups in North America.

This week will mark our 60th Anniver-
sary year from a humble beginning on
October 21, 1929. The Seaforth Legion has
grown from a handful of members to
over 500 members of every classification.
In this week's edition there is a supple-
ment to the paper of the history of the
Seaforth Legion from its beginning to the
present.
This Saturday night the Branch is
hosting a 60th Anniversary Banquet and
Dance honoring the 60th Anniversary with
a social hour from 6 to 7 pm prior to the
Banquet and a dance after the meeting.
Tickets are available at the Branch and
from members of the Executive.
Also available are 60th Anniversary pins
at the Branch for only $2. These pins are
association
limited in number and will be sold on a
first come basis.
The Children going to elementary schools
in Seaforth and area are now being
videotaped for identification purposes.
Those who were absent on that particular
day, will be done at a later date. This is
a service conducted by the Legion on a
District level but performed by the
Seaforth Branch and also by Zone Officers.
These tapes will be stored at their own in-
dividual schools for future identification if
ever needed. Hopefully this will never
happen.
This Thursday, October 19 there is a
meeting of the general membership at 8
pm. The President would like to see a
good attendance at this meeting.
The Branch would like to convey their
sympathies to the McGrath family in the
loss of their loved one. Mary (McGrath)
Smith was a Nurse in the Last War and
donated her uniform to the Branch. It is
now on display in one of the show cases.
They grow not old as we that are left
old. Age shall not weary them nor the
years condemn. At the going down of the
sun and in the morning we will remember
them.

"interested in other people and what they
do and are non-judgemental," said Ancio.
She's reluctant to set an age limit for
volunteers because "you can get some
really exceptional young people."
Step Forward meetings average about
eight members each Tuesday, although
"we've had as many as 22," depending
on the activity. There are three
volunteers at present. Step Forward
celebrated its first anniversary in April.
Volunteers are also needed for the

she said, adding that there's a wide
variety of work that volunteers can do,
from typing and filing to helping plan the

"We've got a lot of possibilities — we
just need manpower," she said.
