Remembrance Day parade to the Cenotaph was deferred from Saturday to Sunday this year for several good and valid reasons but the change was cause for deep disappointment amcng a great many people who have become accusâ€" toméd to regard Nov. lith. as a day set apart for the purpose of paying homage to our Valiant Dead since the original Armistice Day in 1918. This mistake, if we may go so far as tco! call it a mistake, will never be repeated, or the day changed ever again, until such time as Remembrance Day shall be officially altered to include within its significance the termination of present hostilities. Poppy DBayâ€"and the weeks preceeding itâ€"is a period of grave importance to all veterans who carry memories of buddies who d‘:.d nc return and who will never be forgotten. It is a right and proper climax, therefore, to a time spent in remembrance, for veterans to foregather and sing the old songs that served to carry them through the gcod times that they and their fallen buddies experienced when they all cgmpaigned together.

Windsor started well and were soon 200 paints ahead. Legion took this setâ€"back badly, but Jimmie is Seotch and at his best when the going is rough. The old Hie‘land corpuscles began to show signs cif heating up, which was bad for Windsor. Jimmie grabbed his darts with the same fierce intensity with which his sheepâ€"stealing ancestors handled their dirks in the good old days of Robert Bruce, and with his famous underhandâ€" throw planted a dart just where it belonged, winning the first game of the rubber. From then cnward it was a dingâ€" dong battle, no quarter asked or given, but Hepplewhite was right there at the finish placing the winning dart that took the round for Legion.

In the first year of war over 3,800 samples were cut in the workrooms and sent out. Committees were formed, and these with a secretarial staff of 8 volunteers the immediate organization then at Ontario Headquarters of WOoâ€" men‘s War Work, Others, established on one floor of the T. Eaaon Co.‘s warchouse were on the receiving end of the war work committee and receiyâ€" ing and recording of finished garments was done by a staff of volunteers who checked contents of cartons in shipâ€" ments from branches; acknowledged thes> to branches, crediting them in record file. Opened cartons were passâ€" ed to a sorting and inspection comâ€" mittee, under Mrs. Frederick K. Morâ€" row. Most of these capable chairmen of committees who were at the divisional warehouses in ‘the first year of th war, along with:groups of efficient volâ€" unteer workers, are still loyally carryâ€" to the chairmanship in 1940., In 1939 there were only about 70 Red Cross branches in the province, and National and Ontario Women‘s War Work Comâ€" mittee was one body., The necessity of supplying branches with correct samâ€" ples of hospital supplies and a standâ€" ard of knitting instructions was the first consideration in the early days of the war. Knitting leaflets and books of instruction were prepared, quickly distributed ~to branches as requests came pouring in. A volunteer service of capablel women to undertake the designing and making of samples was organized and so the National workâ€" rooms came into being under the leadership of Mrs. C. F. McFEachren assisted by Mrs. A. D. McKelvey (now Mrs. Heintzman) and Mrs. H. A. Mcâ€" Ewen. Volunteer groups sewing each day of the week made the samples and the most interesting job in ‘39 was the linings for the tin cases in which surgical dressings were to travel. Paper patterns and typed instructions were sent to branches on request; periodic bulletins containing lists of these and instructions on all war work plans, kept branches informed.

Ontario was the first diviâ€" sion doing women‘s war work to adopt the quota system which.has proven a garantee against waste of ‘material and‘ branch funds. It has since been adopted nationally. An important part of women‘s war work is that done at the Divisional warehouses. In October 1941, Ontario began operating its own warehouses, the goods warshouses at 122 Pearl St. and the receiving warehouse on Richâ€" mond St. At Pearl St. a group of vo!â€" unteers have laboured through the war years under Mrs. G.

Finished â€" goods are inspected and packed for shipment, and here the Junior League of Toronto has done an excellent job, for since the beginning of making the civilian garments, they have examined and packed all the:»> articles. A new venture in 943 was the makâ€" ing and packing of 6,000 capture parâ€" celsâ€"first link with home which our men in the services have when capâ€" tured by the enemy. Over 12,000 surâ€" vivors bags were completed that year between January and April, At this time an appeal was made to branches asking women to donate toilet articles for Britain‘s active service women. Ontario women eagerly s{qared their belongings, â€" and thousands of filled toilet bags have been semt to Great Britain. This is the message which Mrs. Fraser gives to the Red Cross women. ‘I give you one wordâ€"SERVICE. Spell it in capital lettersâ€"put it up in your workrcomsâ€"use it everywhere. Not only do you women of Ontario carry the word ‘service‘ in your hearts, knowing that that is not enoughâ€" with your hands you also serve, reâ€" membering that for over five years the men of Navy, Army, Air Force, the men and boys: in hospital, the civilian women and children of Great Britain and other lands, have learned to count on you. They still do. We must keep faith with them all. The end of the war is not yet for them or for ‘uUs: The economical basis on which these wargehouses operate is due in large measure to the volunteer serâ€" vices of over 500 women workers per week, Myrs.

The Pension Commission has been very reluctant to make many awards. The recognitich of any case under this section tends to set up a precedent for others. N aturally the ~Canadian Pension Commission feels it |would result in a great many applicaâ€" tions which they woulld find difficult to refuse. Clause Regarding Compassionate Pensions Explained In actual practise, about the only applications for pensicn under section 21 who have succeeded are those with something very distinctive about their service, If a man has been awarded a decoration for service in the field, his chances improve accordingly.. In some cases pensions have been granted to widows o} men who gave gallant and exceptional service. There is provision for another typ2 of "compassionate pension" in section 11, subsection (3), of the Pensian Act. This is limited to those who have serâ€" ved in the present war in Canada ONLY and have been seriously disabled, alâ€" though not as a direct result of the performance of military duties. It is also applicable to dependents of those who have died during service in Canâ€" ada, but not because of actual military duty. In either case, if the applicant is in "necessitous cireumstances",, the commission may authorlze an award of pension.
