Remembrance Is Theme At Ritson School The pupils of Ritson Public School saw a eieaningful ceremony yester- day morning when the 7Tth grade class, taught by J. B. Henderson, took Assembly on the theme of "Remembrance Day." Fay Buzminski gave the morning greeting, led: the assembly through the hymn "O God Our Help in Ages | Past" and the Lord's Prayer. Tris Chopik led the scripture lesson, read in unison by the class. Two stu- dents, Joy Ford and Barry Apple- by gave their impressions of Re- membrance Day and what it means, stnading in front of a chalk mural, a tribute to the Unknown Soldier. As one of them said: "Remembrance Day is dedicated to those who died honorably in the armies of the free world, and for whom we ob- serve two minutes' silence at 11 am. on this day." The least his fellow students could do, went on the youthful speaker, to pay back the soldiers was to drive out the enemy of the new democracy, which was Communism. Then Diane Hubble dressed in Girl Guide uniform, and Boyce Blair in Boy Scout uniform, placed wreaths on a white cross which stood in position of honor on the platform. Brenda Flagg asked the assembly to stand for two minutes of silence, which was reverently ob- served.

Mail as early as possible, advises the Post Qffice. Last minute post- ings, if general, might render it impossible for the Post Office to find sufficient accommodation on the last vessels leaving in time to ensure Christmas delivery. Deadline dates for the. overseas Christmas mailings for surface transport are November 28 for let- ters to the® United Kingdom and November 25 for parcel post. For the Continent the dates are No- vember 25 for letters and November | 21 for parcels. Gift parcels to the United King- dom should contain only bona fide gifts and should be marked "gift parcel". Articles mailed in parcels are subject to British customs regulations and possible purchase tax. The total value of the con- tents of parcels sent to ether coun- tries without an export permit must not exceed $25 warns the Post Of- fice. Parcels for the Canadian Force which is to perform occupational duty in Europe may be sent at the special concessionary rate of 15 cents per pound up to a weight limit of 10 pounds. As a further concession the 10 cents Canada Air Letter may be used regardless of the location of the Occupation Force. Present parcel post rates for gift and regular parcels from Canada to the United Kingdom remain in effect until January 1, 1952, Once Priest Speaks Here This Evening Rev. John Kimber, who will speak in Calvary Baptist Church at 8 p.m. today, was born in Eng- land, and was sent at the early age of two years to a Roman Catholic convent, in. Kent, England. For years he grew up under the teach- ing of that church, but a growing discontent with the entire system and teaching imbued him with the desire to escape from it all, which he did, but was captured and caus- ed to return, his parents determin- ed that he would study for the priesthood. Life became an in- tolerable burden for him and his heart-hunger for the truth drove him to desperation. Eventually his parents came across to Canada, took him with them and did all in their power to enforce their wish upon him for the priesthood. Breaking free from all this compulsion, he attended a Protestant funeral and hearing the Word®of God read and the way of salvation explained, sought out the minister, asked for a Bible, and after reading the Word of God and His plan of free salvation through the finished work of our Lord Jesus Christ on the Cross, John Kimber accepted Christ as his own per- sonal Saviour, and at the age of 22 years, was born .again. We invite you to hear this man's account of his experiences while under the compulsion of the Ro- man Catholic system, and how, by the grace of God, he came to know the Lord Jesus Christ as his per- sonal Saviour. The meeting is in' Calvary Baptist Church, this Saturday at 8 pm, and is open to everyone who cares to come.

Keep these dates open and watch for further announcements, Sales Down Production Of Autos Up While it seems a fairly reasonable assumption that Canada's | auto makers will turn out at least as many cars and trucks this year as they did last, it is a very doubtful question as to whether they will be able to sell as many. According to the Bureau of Sta- tistics in Ottawa, sales of new motor vehicles totalled 405,878 for the first nine months of the year, a drop of 6,568 from the 412446 | level for the like 1950 period. Truck sales were up from 80,642 in the 1950 period to 85558 this year, but cars skidded from 331,804 to 320,320. September sales figures show a decided drop from September, 1950. and are below last year's corres- ponding level for the fifth con- secutive monht, the bureau reporst. Production figures show an in- crease, however. Ward's Automo- tive Reports, a statistical summary of tire motor car industry published in Detroit, said last week that Can- adian car and truck production totalled 361,700 for the first ten months of the year compared to 325,500 for the same period in 1950. i the week just ended, Ward's feports, Canadian car out- put unted to 4,903 units, com- pared' to 4,133 ldst year, and truck production rose to 2,900 from 2,875.

Harold Cleverdon to take up the torch which had been thrown to them by those who died. Captain- Cleverdon's stirring address was one of the finest ever. presented to the Legionnaires at this annual festival of remembrance, and touched a responsive chord in the hearts of the war veterans who were present in large numbers. The function was attended by o the usual Legion ceremonies of ob- serving the silent toast to Fallen Comrades, proposed by M. M. Hood, with Alfred Hewitt sounding the with A. Hewitt sounding the "Last Post" and "Reveille" to mark the period of silence. President G. F.

Creighton making a splen- did response, in which he paid tribute to the proud record of the Legion in caring for the needs of war veterans, and in securing ade- quate to meet their needs. There was another function of the Le- gion, he said, that of remembrance, of perpetuating the memory of those who gave their lives in two world wars. BATTLEFIELDS REVISITED Mr. Creighton told of his visit to some of the old battlefields of World War I this summer, and painted a graphic picture of the scene looking down from Vimy Ridge on the villages so well known to the veterans of that battle.

Technical Squadron, RCEME, will be the guests of the club. on was little evidence that wary had passed that way, he said, as the scars of war were gone and the villages had been rebuilt, His overwhelming impression as he looked on the cemeteries with thousands of war graves was one- of the engrmous volume of the- tragedy of death which they im-: dicated. It was the Legion's duty to keep alive the memory of thas. tragedy, of the terrible cost paid, and what it had achieved in saving freedom for the world.
