EOWMANV!LLP, ONTARIO PAGE SEVZWTEEN # Sacrifice and Remembrance"" Topic AI Lions Club Armistice Dinner A nation which would. continue to enjoy freedom must be pre- pared to defend it, stated Hon. John W. Foote, V.C., Minister of Reformn Institutions, in an address delivered at the Lions Armistice Dinner held in the Community Centre, Monday evening. "Today we are faced with ex- pensive preparations which wili help us to successfully meet ag- gression," he said. However, as an even more important part of preparation, he stressed the pro- pagation of a faith which is con- fident that "'righteousness alone ,can exait a nation." 'tling hil address, "Sacrifice aiCnemembrance," r.Foote s~ we must be Prepared in ;4ea~et sacrfiefo such a faîth, in the dedication of our lives in service to the Church which teaches such faith. "If we can do this," he said, "the future wili have no terrors for our nation, for we shall eventually triumph mn any struggle against a nation which wages a battie with mat- erial might alone." The speaker was introduced as Major John Foote, V.C., "a dis- tinguished soldier" and l0-year member of the Port Hope Lions Club, by International Council- lor J. J. Brown.

WARNICA A well-known and beloved re- sident of Bowmanville for 30 years until she moved to Oshaw,ýa 10 years ago, Mrs. Bertha May Warnica passed away at the home of her son Roy, in Barrie, on Nov. 2nd. She had been in fail- ing health for the past three rnonths and was In her 80th year. While a resident here she lived with her parents, Rev. W. C. Washington and the former Cath- erine Day, a native of Kingston. She led a very active and useful life being for several years on the teaching staff of the public school and later was appointed Attendance Officer. She was also one of the most active workers in Trinity United Church at which she was a very regular at- tendant. For many years she was a teacher in the Sunday Schooi and was an enthusiastic worker in the various women's organiza- tions of the church and at one time was a member of the Of ficiai Board. She was neyer happier than when going about spreading sunshine and cheer or in giving a heiping hand or comfort to ar rieedy one in the name of her Master.s lkK.1Warnica was the hast sur-o BoNyffanville Hospital Bgard and 1l herý ast visit here was on the1E priately referred to the debt we owe the individual men and women who gave their lives in the wars of the Empire "that we might continue to live unafraid in a land of freedom." He stressed the collective sac- rifice of Great Britain who not only gave ber sons, but sacrificed every cent of her capital and foreign investments and practîc- ally faced bankruptcy, in the early days of World War II when she stood alone against the mob- ilized might of Germany. The speaker said it was a small part of the story to blame any government for her present econ- omic piight. England's poverty today, is ber glory, in the estima- tion of Mr. Foote, who said, "those who bebold it shouhd re- member that it represents the measure of ber sacrifice when she held the fortress alone." War Is Terrible "War," Mr. Foote said, 1'is a terrible thing and every veteran knows that." He intimated there are worse things, however, and mnentioned unpreparedness and a lack of faith in this connection. The speaker was thanked For bis appropriate address by Lion Jack Ross.
