Red Cross work is not being shared equally by the women of this village If you can’t knit or sew, come and baste or learn to do all three, or attend the business meetings and accept places on committees for raising money. The society is grateful for the financial help received in the past three yearsâ€"without it nothing could be done, but now it is asking that the work rooms be filled again, with eager, zealous, conscientious women. “Red Cross” must go on. Something sings gently thru the din of battle, Something spreads very softly rim on rim, And every soldier hears, at times, a murmur Tender, incessant, dim. I like to think that soldiers, gaily dying For the white Christ on fields with shame sown deep, May hear the tender song of women’s needles As they fall fast asleep. a horrible suspicion is entertained that only those actively en; gaged in Red Cross work remember to read those notes â€" hence the front page. It might profit some of us to know that in order to com- plete certain quotas, members have taken home garments in lots of twentyvfiveto makerand return completed. Red Cross work rooms are still open, the sewing machines are still running. and the quantity and quality of work maintain the same high standard, but alas, only half the chairs are being used, some of the machines are unopened, and the table exten- sion is rarely needed. Where are the women who occupied those places three years ago. Is the need for sacrifice any less than in 1939? ' From time to time in the “Red Cross Notes” of this publi- cation mild requests have been made for more workers. Now, We are now entering upon the fourth year of war, the struggle has grown in grimness, and our village boys are being numbered among the casualties. - Five days after the declaration of war on September 3rd, 1939, the Richmond Hill branch of the Red Cross Society was organized. A capable executive plunged at once into work, and the women of the village stood behind them. The work rooms were filled twice a week, extra chairs were sought after, sewing machines donated. tables extended.

Richmond Hill Bowlers Win Globe Doubles Richmond Hill bowlers last Fri- day won one of the outstanding bowling honors of the province, the Globe Doubles. Morley Hall and Gar- field Yerex teamed up for this event and their fine performance during two days of play brought the much coveted honor to Richmond Hill for the first time in the history of this major bowling classic.

The singing of “Abide With Me”, the playing of the Dead March in Saul, and the sounding of the Last Post concluded the impressive cere- mony. The ceremony, opened with the singing of the hymn “Nearer My God to Thee” after which the Rev. W. F. Wrixon paid an eIOquent tri- bute to the men who gave their lives at Dieppe. “History will show this to be the turning point in the war,” he said, “and it is a matter of pro- found pride that in this important action so many of our North York boys took part.” The Rector said that recently someone had remarked that North York was hard hit by Dieppe. “I rather like to think,” he said, “that the enemy was hard hit by North York at Dieppe.” This is another glorious chapter in the his- tory of Canada, indelibly marked with the blood of Canadians who paid the supreme sacrifice. We are here today and Canada and the Em- pire lives, and will live because there are young men like Pte. George Adams and Pte. Ernie Goode who are willing to die if need-be to pre- serve the freedom of the world.

RICHMOND HU.L, ONTARIO THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 10th, 1942. The committee regret if by colâ€" lecting at an early hour last Mon- day any convenience was caused our citizens. We understand some salâ€" vage was put out after the collecâ€" tors had passed and this had to be carried in and held for the next colâ€" lection on September 21. The Happy Thought range has not yet been disposed of. This is a large range in fairly good condition and would be very suitable for a sum- nfer kitchen on a farm. The price is only $3.00. We have been offered this much by purchasers of old iron but we wodld regret to see it smash- ed up as useless when we feel it could be of good service to someone for years. If however no purchaser appears before our next shipment of metals it will‘have to go as old iron as our storing space is crowded and we need the room.
