“Has Been U52: . For 37 Years

l 0n the me of R'2aii:‘iiil‘~~:zii:'e ‘Day. .l. .l. )Iaclsaac. pic':tl;iit of the Prince Eduard island command of the Canadian Le- gion, composed of 22 branches! with approximately 2.000 mem- bers throughout the province. has issued a statement calling public attention to the various services of Remembrance which will be conducted today in Isl-and cen- ters.

“Today we pay tribute to our war dead, Whose deeds speak for all time. and far more eloquently than words. Very little can ade- quately be told by any tndiivldual about the dead whose memory we commemorate today. but one point should be stressed on this necasion. That is the, relationship of the war dead to the SllI’V‘lVOl‘S: of the past to the present.

I HE REASON

Some 104.000 men have died in Canada‘s wars. perhaps their reason for dying was never clear- cut even to themselves. That reason was the sum total at life as experienced in Canada, and the willingness to risk death to preserve these things for future generations.

They saw death as I duty, and performed that duty, but they left a responsibility with us. That responsibility was to make the most out of the world they left us. If the world is not better ; today than it was in 1939 we must lall accept the moral guilt". Referring to the National Pop~ py Campaign, Mr.. MacLsaac said i' will be thirty-seven years this November since the custom of nearing a poppy replica for Re- membrance was inagvurated in Canada.

There are three distinct phases to the observance of remem- brance through the poppy.

THE POPPY

First, there is the act of re- membrance itself. symobilzed by the wearing of a poppy, the emblem derived from the blood red flower. which grew in such profusion on the graves of Cana- dian soldiers who sleep their last long sleep 'in Flanders fields. The wearing of a poppy is a tri— bute to those who paid the sup- reme sacrifice. in all wars. in which their country has been engaged.

Mrs. Eugene Daley. converter for education reported having at» tended a meeting of the Parkdale Home and School Association and told of the need for more new books for the school libraries. Mrs. Frank MacDonald report- ed that the C.F.M. has opened a lending library on Great George Street and it is to be known as the Catholic Information Center.
