Hos- pitalization and pensions, he said were handled through political channels. Veterans became disillusioned and bewildered and naturally banded together, These groups were ineffective but in 1925 j was learned that Earl Haig ha unified all veterans in Britain and he was invited to the Unity Conference in Winnipeg. Out of this conference came the BESL, soon to become the strongest or- ganization, excepting the Chris- tian church, in Canada. He called upon Legion mem- bers to preach the gospel of Le-| gion to other veterans who have not joined, Toast to the Legion Ladies' Auxiliary was proposed by L. H. Inkpen, who said that he doubted if any branch could operate suc-| cessfully without a ladies' gux- iliary. Mrs. G. Brown, auxiliary president, responded. Miss Rose Bate, Auxiliary Zone Commander, from Bowmanville, also spoke briefly. Zone Comman- der John Allin, of Sunderland, said that Whitby hag one of the finest Legion branches in the Dominion of Canada.

The added population count will give Whitby township's reeve two votes instead of one. The Whitby Dunlops came up with a big 42 win in Maple Leaf Gardens on Monday night to take a 1-0 lead in the best of seven All-Ontario playdowns. It was a nip and tuck battle for the first two periods with the Dunnies taking a 1-0 lead in the first period only to have the Trappers come back with a goal by Atanas in the second to make it one-all heading into the final 20 minutes.. The Dunnies showed their power in 'this game and rapped home three ~ WHITBY CLASSIFIED goals before the Trappers could manage another tally. The Trap- pers were somewhat off their true form for this game, we expect. They had a very soft series with South Porcupine and as a result when they came up against stiffer opposition they were lost for a while. The Dunnies on the other hand did mot play nearly as well as they are capable of, but they are not taking the North Bay team lightly. The Trappers have a fast skating team who break very fast. They have a number of fellows who can pot that big one if they get a break. Goalle Brodeur (last year with Kitchener) who is a pint sized fellow, came up some terrific saves in the game Monday night and made his real big ones on the Blond Bomber of the Dunnies, Bobby Attersley.
