Remembrance D'y In a stirring address at Sun- day's town Remembrance Ser- vice Controller (Ca-ptain) Will- iam Allen of Toronto called on all ex-servicemen to take a more active part in public affairs. Those men and women who have; served their country so gallantr ly in wartime should take up the challenge of leadership in peacetime. Freedom and demo- cratic institutions are a price- less heritage bought for us by Tthe blood of so many of our fellow countrymen who paid the supreme sacrifice in two World ‘wars. Controller Allen called on Canadians everywhere to continue to live by those great Christian principles which have come down to us through the Iages. Controller Allen supported council in its stand to protect its municipal political borders from the encroachment of Metro and some form of super government. Fine fall weather provided a perfect setting for this solemn occasion. A large turnout of town citizen-s took part in the service. The local clergy were represented by Rev. John Ward of St. John’s Baptist Church and Rev. R. E. McLennan of St. Gab- riel Anglican Church. Music was ably provided by the Rich- mond Hill High School Band, the Police Boys’ Band and the Highland Band from Toronto. Arrangements for the service were under the direction of Mayor W. J. Haggart, Magistrate James Butler and former Mayor William Neal. “LIBERAL” CLASSIFIEDS PHONE TU. 4-1105 Will Your Battery Fail You? It could happen.
