This year Remembrance Day in Richmond Hill will be Novem- ber 7. Comrade Frank Barrett, chairman of the local Remem- brance Day committee. reports he has invited all local service Earlier this year the federal‘ government passed an amend-l ment to the existing legislation which recognizes November H as a statutory holiday. Various statements have since been; made, and reports have been received indicating that Re-. membrance Day is now believed to be an official holiday for ALL Canadians. Inquiries‘ were recently made on the sub- ject at the Legion provincial. command headquarters. Thei branch was informed that under present law. November 11 is a non-obligatory statutory holi- day which is recognized by gov-' ernment departments, banks. and some private concerns. The legislation has existed SinCPt 1931 and the recent amendment? merely extended the statute to‘ cover Crown-owned corpora- tions. ti‘ki The Legion dominion prestâ€"l dent has proclaimed the seven days commencing November 5‘ and ending NOVember 11 as Remembrance Week.

Com- rade Benjy Bourget and Mrs. Bourget said they were from New Liskeard and had recently settled in Richmond Hill. It was their first visit to Branch 375 and they remarked on the differences between our branch and New Liskeard Branch 33. Comrade Bourget said he intends to transfer his membership here. The Legion. as an organiza- tion. is entirely non-partisan It has to be. if for no other reason than that its member- ship. being a complote cross section of the Canadian people. belongs to all political parties. This policy of keeping the or- ganization out of party politics must not. however, be inter- preted as meaning that the LP.‘ gion is in any way adverse to individual members taking an active part in political affairs. On the contrary, the stand the Legion has always taken in this respect is that the more war veterans there are in Parliament. the better tori all ex-service men and women, and for Canada. i With a federal election tak- ing place next month it is im- portant that the many veter- ans who have joined the Royal Canadian Legion in recent years should have a clear conception of our organization‘s position with regard to elections and politics generally. For their benefit. as well as for the in- formation ot' political candi. dates and the general public. the oft-stated stand of the Leg- ion on this important issue is as follows: your legion Reports Branch 375.

By MRS LOREN GUILD Our Headford Correspondent "How does a Girl Guide rate a trip to Mexico?" I asked Ranger Captain Pat Staton. York Central Division who had ‘ust returned from chaperoning a group of 14 girls on a trip to Mexico. Mrs. Slalon is a resident of Headfm'd. “wearing a uniform isn't al- ways easy and often provokes jeers. By wearing it with poise the girls demonstrate that they are proud of it and for what it stands. It is not the uniform of comformity or style. It is a traditional uniform and is a symbol of a plan of training to develop the best. in girls growing into “The girls are intelligent. most of them averaging 70-80 in school grades along with extra curricular interests.

The costume of the Canadian girls was much less colorful than the cos- tumes from older countries but the three symbolic leaves in autumn colors on their skirts declared their country.
