Dozens of streamers hung with pre- cision draped the ceiling. Murals of our forest creat- ures coloured in the same hue adorned each wall. To enhance the loveliness of the scene a wishing well, a work - of art in itself, made an otherwise dull corner look like a fairy land. Soft lighting cast a magic glow to the decor.

On Saturday the Bolans attended the Midland reg- ular reunion in Port Hope. It is with a little sadness and yet with a deep sense of pride that a wife attends a regimental reunion. We sit' quietly through the cere- mony, thanking God our man returned and as we watch the veterans there, we know they are going back in time to that dreadful era of living hell. A Carruthers M.P. said a few words to the men and proposed a toast to them. Another toast was offered to the four Hong Kong vets that survived out of a whole platoon. A lovely roast beef dinner was served, dancing followed until one a.m. Goodbyes were said for another year. The next reunion will be in Bow- manville. Congratulations are in order for Mr. and Mrs. G.
