Thousands Of Citizens Turn Out For Remembrance Day onies. ,

____ .

Remembrance Day was fitting- ly observed throughout Prince Edward Island yesterday, cere-

monies being held at the Will‘ me- morials at. Charlottetown, Sunl- merslde, Montague, Miscouche, St. Eleanors. Wheatley River and other centres. At each place the services were under the auspices of the local branch of the Cana- dian Legion.

In many places the Leglortmem- bers were fewer in number many being enlisted in the Veterans Guard and in other service units.

At the Charlottetown cenotaph in Queen's square a lzirge number of citizens turned out to partici- pate in the ceremony, the chief feature of which ‘was the solemn two minutes’ silence at 11 o'clock

Before the service began mem- bers of the war veterans and de- tachments from the armed forces paraded from the Legion I-iczid- quarters to the memorial, going by way of Grafton, Pownal, Kent, Queen and Grafton Streets to the monument. Units parading, in ad- dition to the veterans. included the Royal Canadian Naval Vol- unteer Reserve. commanded by Lieut. K. Birtwlstle; the Veterans Guard, capt. J. J. Ireightlzer; the Royiil Canadian Air Force, Sergt. Lacroix, and a detachment from the Beach Grove Inn militia train- ing centre.

At, the monument. after the singing of "O Canada" and the sounding oi the Last Post, the two minutes‘ silence was solemnly observed. This was followed by rcveille and by the recitation by Major T. E. MacNutt, chaplain of the Provincial Coitiinzinti. of Laurence Bliivoivs famous lines: "They shall grow not old. as we

who are Lft grow old;

Age shall not weary them. nor

the years condemn,

At the going down of the sun.

and in the morning

We will reincinbci" them."

ATHENS, NOV. ll — (AP)- Grcectfs mountain defenders have beaten the Italian invaders and they “are retreating in dissordei" toward Allianla," the Greek radio declared today. Despite superior‘ forces. it said. the Italians "have lost. the battle . lii all sectors." l Thus, at the start of the third week of war, has Greece rebcund- l ed confidently from the initliili [shock of invasion. ‘

I-Ier leaders feel that now not only have Greek defences proved themselves under fire but also that in the four rainy months Bheud Italy's mechanized forces can only mire in the mud of Greek mountain roads. Italy's highly trained Centaur division, made up of Alplnists who spent a yicar in Albania preparing to become the shock troops of a. Fascist lightning war, has been wiped out, the high command said.
