The «ym had gained college atmosphere not only from the throngs of students but also from the university colors covering alâ€" most every inch of ceiling space. ‘"Band Box" was deep in orange, blues and reds, for Queen‘s, blues and whites for Toronto and had a background made up of four huge university crests in university colors, representing Torâ€" onto, Western, McGill and Queen‘s.

On Friday evening last in the Red Cross rooms there was a meeting adâ€" dressed by Miss Mary Irene Foy, Ontâ€" ario organizer for Blood Donors‘ Servicâ€" es. Miss Foy gave full details of the blood donor service, a local committee, was appointed as follows to look after the visit here of the Mobile Unit. This committee is as follows:â€" Chairman â€" J. M.

Member of St. John Ambulance Nurâ€" The Mobile Unit of the Blood Dunâ€" ors‘ Services will visit Timmins in the near future. The need for Hiood donaâ€" tions is a very pressing one and the Red Cross has arranged to have the Mobile Unit visit towns and cities so as to keep up the supply. Men and women alike can contribute and all should assist in this vital work. The exact time and the locatton of the clinic is not yet definitely arranged so far as this part of the North is conâ€" cerned but further announcements will be made later.

Newâ€"type barges bringing their cargoes of men and supplies almost onto the beaches, carried invasionâ€" trained Canadians into the assault on Sicily where shore gun positions were taken with lightning speed. At Top, Canadian troops leave the barges for shore on rafts and small craft, with some even wading to shore through the shallow water.

These three men were among the first Canadians to set foot on Sicily as the assault began. (Canadian Army Photo) CANADIANS INV ADE SICILYâ€"TAKE BEACH WITH EASE George Meldrum TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY JULY 29TH, 1943 Miss Foy has organized 90 of these mobile units and expects the number to have reatched 100 by the time she arrives back in Toronto. Other norâ€" thern towns to be visited by the clinic are Haileybury, New Liskeard and perâ€" haps TIroquois Falls,. Each clinic is sponsored by the Red Cross. Miss Foy brought greetings from Red Cross headquarters in Toronto, and had high praise for the wonderful work of northern branches in the tremendâ€" ous amount of money ana work supâ€" plied. Refreshments are served the donors immediately after treatment and the different organizations are expected to take charge of this work. All services are of course voluntary. The Cathâ€" olic Women‘s League will cater to the first clinice here. Miss Foy advised women to consult their doctor before presenting themâ€" selves at the clinic, but men are exâ€" amined by the doctors in charge. Male donors are preferable as their veins are stronger, and about three men can be treated in the same time as one woman. The exact time and location of Timâ€" mins first clinic is not definitely esâ€" tablished but further announcements will be made and names of those to whom donors may give their names. Each province has now its own units. Ontario has 28 permanent units located in the larger centres. The response for donors was so sponâ€" taneous, and the need so urgent that the Red Cross, seeing the difficulty of bringing donors from outlying points to the clinic, decided that the clinic must go to them, and hence the mobile units. This consists of a oneâ€"ton truck, accompanied by a graduate nurse who has had special training in laboratory work. Only the nurse and driver go aâ€" long with the truck but it contains all the necessary equipment necessary for the holding of the clinic. The towns visited must supply the location and personnel, which consists of about 12 nurses, three doctors, and several other attendants. When the importance of blood serum had been established in Britain, the Canadian Government asked to be uf assistance, and now the total sost of processing is born by the government All processing is done at the Connaught Laboratories in Toronto. 15,000 donors a week are needed to supply the objecâ€" tive set by the Red Cross. Miss Foy pointed out that in donatâ€" ing blood the public is supplying a need that money cannot buy. sing Division will act as floating nurses, about six will be required for each clinic. There was only a very small attendâ€" ance of members at the monthly genâ€" eral meeting of Timmins branch of the Canadian Legion held on Monday evenâ€" ing in the Legion Hall. After Legion honours, President Les. Nicholson welcomed 1st Vice-President Fred Curtis back again in harness arter a seige of sickness. Much correspondence was read per-; taining to pension matters, membersup The most important item at the regâ€" ular monthly general meeting of Timâ€" mins Branch No. 88 Canadian Legion was a letter from Provincial President Capt. Tom Magladery in which the members were advised that Dominion President Alex Walker will address a mass meeting of Legion members in New Liskeard the early part of Septâ€" ember. President Alex Walker is fuliâ€" filling a promise made at St. Catharâ€" ines, three years ago. His tour of Ontario does not permit time for him to visit Timmins, but plans are being made for a large number of members to journey to New Liskeard. A unique incident of the tour of Ontario in the fourteen branches to be addressed will be the presentation of all new applicaâ€" tions for membership since the start of the drive in July. Timmins has a good batch all ready on hand. Each executive member will captain a team during August, and Timmins branch intends to be near the top when reâ€" turns are completed.

Other Items from Branch Meeting on Monday. Once Was a Nice Young Man Now Working on The Star Among those visiting Timmins with the party including E. B. Jolliffe, leadâ€" er of the C.C.F. party in Ontario, was Mr. W. Munro, for a few months in 1937 on the staff of The Advance as reâ€" porter. He is now following the C.C.P. leader in his tour of the province, to report the proceedings for The Toronto Star. While in Timmins, Munro was a popular young fellow with some Dear Sir:â€" Thanks a lot for the cigarettes. Don‘t smoke myself, but will see that they are distributed to Timmins men here, with your compliâ€" ments. Several charitable people in Timmins who know I don‘t smoke send me cigarettes to distribute among the men when they go short. When I aim crderly officer I distribute a few through the hospital and they certainly are appreciated by the boys.

Pickering spoke on behalf of the Red Cross for blooi donâ€" cess In introducing the Lieut.â€"Governeor, Kiwanian Langdon, who previously neld the same position, mentioned the fact that there are one hundred and thirteen thousand members of Kiwanis in the United States and Canada in twentyâ€" three hundréd clubs. He also noted that the membership in the Northern Division had increased during the year. Among new Kiwanis clubs opened up, he especially mentioned the one in Sudbury, opened in April, 1942, Mr. Langdon also mentioned that the carnâ€" ival last week had been a definite sucâ€" The Lieutenantâ€"Governor was introâ€" duced by Kiwanian W. O. Langdon and suitably thanked by Kiwanian P. T. Moisley for the inspiring address given. During his address, Lieut.â€"Governor Linklater congratulated the club on the fine work being accomplished here, and also complimented Dr. Lee Honey, who recently made a trip to Sault Ste. Marie, giving an address there at the Kiwanis Club. The Lieut.â€"Governor also expressed pleasure in the fact that both the president and, viceâ€"president of the South Porcupine Kiwanis Club were present. Unlike the peace after the last war, the peace after this war should be the concern of every man and woman in the land, the speaker suggested. The world must be reformed along Christian lines. The planning must be intelliâ€" gent, and there will have to be a great deal of hard work. Many things come to mind in which the Kiwanis clubs can help in the postâ€"war world â€" agriculâ€" ture, slum clearance, nutrition, housâ€" ing, development of the natural reâ€" sources of the country and many others. True democracy, the speaker emphasizâ€" ed, can only be won by individua. efâ€" fort. The Lieut.â€"Governor pointed out that together with the war effort, there should be earnest thought about the postâ€"war period, for the highest amâ€" bition a man can attain is service to mankind. ‘"We build now for the fuâ€" ture," he said. ‘"Our people will give even a better war effort if they have hopes of a better world after the war is over." There are about ten thousand Kiâ€" wanians serving in the armed forces, Lieutâ€"Governor Linklater said. "If these Kiwanians are willing to die for freedom of speech, freedom to worâ€" ship God, and our Canadian way of life, then we should consider these things well worth living for" the speakâ€" er said. The Lieutâ€"Governor mentloned the fact that Timmins has a very zsood recâ€" ord at Kiwanis International, the most important single activity at the present time being the Air Cadets, The work of the Timmins Kiwanis Club in this regard has been an inspiratton to many other clubs. The Lieutâ€"Governor noted that beâ€" sides keeping up the usual work of Kiâ€" wanis clubs â€" underprivilegeed childâ€" ren and other charitiee â€" the club must be geared completely into the war effort. Many Kiwanlans cannot fight on the battle front. However, 11 must fight on the home front. Kiwanis had an important vart to play in the war effort, the speakeor said, and it can only play this part if each individual club is an active club. Each individual member has to bear increasing responsibilities. One of the important functions of Kiwanis clubs in war time is to build an active people‘s morale. Patriotism is work not talk, the Lieut.â€"Governor said,. and victory will be attained by united effort. The special speaker at the Timmins Kiwanis Club luncheon at the Empire hotel on Monday was Jack Linklater, Kiwanis District Lieut.~Governor. He gave special warning to his fellow memâ€" bers not to be lulled into complacency by the recent victories and successes of the Allied Forces. Mr. Linklater saicd that this was the fourth and probably the decisive year of the war, and that it would be well for all to keep firmly in their minds these things for which we are fighting. He pointed out that only through coâ€"operation and individâ€" ual effort can complete victory be atâ€" tained. ‘"We are fighting for those things for which our forefathers died," said the Lieut.â€"Governor, "for freedom of speech, freedom to worship God in our own way, for the right of associaâ€" tion and the right of fair trial."
