This line of the work increasâ€" ed each yvear. The formation and sucâ€" cessful conduct of the Licns Boys‘ Band was another work in which to take pride. â€" Provision of Christmas treats was another undertaking that made the club well worth while. The assistance given by the Lions Club in the fight against tuberculosis was also mentionâ€" ed by L.ion Ball.

Increased Allowance for Dependant Childrenâ€"1It was at one time only posâ€" sible to secure allowances for two childâ€" ren at the rate of $12.00 es month each. Personal Services â€" When hostilities broke out those enlisting were faced with innumerable problems. The Leâ€" gion stepped in and at each camp loâ€" cated a Personal Service Officer. This man was well versed in practically all matters concerning the checking of alâ€" lowances, debits owing on furniture and mortgaged property, and a hundred and one other questions. ‘These were taken care of and the great amount of work which has been completed on the solâ€" diers‘ behalf, speaks well of Legion orâ€" ganization. Despite the fact that references have been frequent to the achievments of the Canadian Legion since the present war commenced, there are still some who are â€"not aware of the large amount of work and the benefits secured by the Legion for those serving in the present war. The members of the Canadian Legion. being men who saw service durâ€" ing 1914â€"1918, had learned a bitter lesâ€" son in the failure of the government to fulfill promises made, especially in reâ€" gard to rehabilitation at the close of the war. Upon returning from overseas the country was in no way prepared to absorb the thousands returning, and unemployment was the order. True the government opened trade schools and gave employment grants to plants that undertook to learn the young fellows a trade, but the situation still remained far from what it should be. As a reâ€" sult it came about that when it seemed inevitable that Canada must go to war again the Canadian Legion, stated emphatically that the same conditions would never occur to those serving and returning while the Legion existed. So far that promise has been fulfilled. To give illustration of this subject the members of the Legion refer back to the convention of the Dominion Comâ€" mand at Montreal in 1940. At this conâ€" vention the main topic of the entire convention was calling for a Total War Effort and for plans to be formulated to absorb all returned soldiers into emâ€" ployment at the close of hostilities... The Legion gave leadership in the latâ€" ter matter by establishing the Canaâ€" dian Legion War Services, and its eduâ€" cation and trade programme has been the means of keeping those serving in close touch with their trade or univerâ€" sity courses. There have been students who have been able to pass their exams and secure degrees while serving in the forces overseas. Saturday, Nov. 7th, will be Poppy Day in Timmins and throughout Canâ€" ada, and it is well worth while to po?"ut out why this day should have more than the usual support.

The executive comâ€" mittee, however, will meet from time to time to consider the desirability of arranging for another Festival as conâ€" ditions improve. t The financial statement for the past year was read at the meeting and acâ€" counts were passed for payment,. leavyâ€" ng the Festival without obligations but a@aiso witlhout any surplus tw casry on.

The counâ€" try however, can be prepared. This can be accomplished by swelling the Poppy Fund. All should show their thanks to the Canadian Legion and give liberally on Poppy Day. The more you give toâ€" day the less you‘ll have to give later. At the present time the Poppy Fund here is in a steady position. The Leâ€" gion lhopes to keep it that way, but it also feels that all must be prepared for any emergency. Therefor when you buy a Poppy, remember the great good which has been done and look to toâ€" morrow for its continuance of necesâ€" sary.â€"Poppy Day, Saturday, Nov. 7th.

Only One Fire in Timmins During the Past Week Police are often accused of getting people into jams, but seldom credited with getting them out of tight places. Last night, however,‘ the Provincial Poâ€" lice got one man out of a bad jam on the Back Road. He was very drunk and got between two stumps and was so bady jammed betwseen the two that it required outside helo to extricate him The Provincial Police gave that help and so got the gentleman out of that jam. Of course, there is a catch to it. He‘s in another jam now, being chargâ€" ed with being drunk and having liquor in a public place. This week a car belonging to Bruâ€" nette‘s Taxi Stand was stolen, though the car thief could not possibly expect to get away with it, as the name of the firm was in bold letter on the back of the car.
