It’s just one of those things, like the weather. Since we’re all in it together you’d be surprised how much more pleasant the trip can be if we all make up our minds to take those discomforts in our stride. So let’s be good-natured and keep smiling. Let’s help solve this war problem by trying to make things pleasant for one another, PACIFIC OPERATING TO SAVE GASOLINE AND RUBBER CARRYING ON ESSENTIAL. TRANSPORTATION PS-16-44 STAGES WHILE SERVICE LEGION NOTES Realize $400 From Sale of Poppy Emblem (Gontributed by Legion Secretary) Poppy Day Campaign: The sum realized this year from the sale of “Poppies” will, it is anticipat- ed, reach close to $400. To date the returns are $394.27 with one more source to heag from. This is a record and we feel that the appeal addressed to the citizens of the M-S-A Area by our Presi- dent, Com, F. Holtsbaum, in the Nov. I issue of the A. S. & M News has met with a very gen- erous response. The results re- flect a real spirit of generosity on the part of the citizens of the M-S-A Area and the time and ef- fort given by the workers for this worthy cause is sincerely ap- preciated by the members of this Branch. We take this opportunity of ex- tending our, warmest thanks to Miss F. Pengilly, and the young ladies who untiringly can- vassed on the streets of Abbots- ford. From this source alone the sum of $123.02 was collected. We also wish to thank the school teachers of the M-S-A Area for their co-operation, also Miss Hazel Green, Abbotsford, Miss Lawrence, Bradner; Mrs. Cairns, Clayburn; Mrs. Cape, Kil- gard; M. McAskill, Mt Lehman; J. Kilby, Huntingdon; E. Barrett, Abbotsford. Special mention is made of two young ladies, Misses Jacquline Healey and Mary Stein, who, es- corted by Com. Conway, canvass- ed the Airport with marked suc- cess. Overseas Committss under the chairmanship of Com. J. Aitken, report that 196 parcels have re- cently been despatched to the boys of this area serving over- seas. General Meeting held on Nov. 9th. A vote of thanks was ex- tended to Mr. Lang.

Command:— “That we confirm and re-. -endorse the policy of our Do- minion Command in the mat- ter of conscription for overseas service and demand that our “draftee” army be made avail- able immediately as re-inforce- ments for service overseas in any theatre of war. Victory Bonds: It was unani- mously agreed that we purchase a $1000 Victory Bond. Christmas Draw: Tickets are now available for the annual Christmas Draw. If you are in need of a turkey for the Xmas dinner or one of the many other prizes, you had better hurry as the demand for tickets is very keen.- Armistice: The ceremony at the Cenotaph on Nov. 11th was well attended by the War Veterans, but not so by the general pub- lic which was very disappointing.
