Tomorrow the Oshawa Chapter of the Silver Cross ® Mothers' Association, the Remembrance Association of Canada, is making its first appeal to the public of Osh- awa for financial assistance in its welfare and public service work. This appeal is taking the form of a Silver Cross Tag Day, and members of the association reinforced by willing workers and helpers, will be on the streets of the city asking the citizens to buy tags to provide funds to carry on the quiet but effective work of these devoted women who have the common bond of having given their sons in the supreme sacrifice for their country.

There are thou- idea of | Splendid Welfare Work Done By Sacrificial Organization Oshawa who have any what this organization represents. The Remembrance Association of | Silver Cross Women is the only | organization of its kind in Can- ada, or indeed, in the world. It | originated from the mothers whose | sons paid the supreme sacrifice in World War I, and was added to by those in the same category in World War II, and its primary idea sands of both men and women for whom the wars will never end, and wives left with families that need assistance. Thesé people will al-| ways find willing helpers in the | Silver Cross women. They are try- ing to carry on some of the work for which their boys fought and | died.

Owing to the funds being limited, activities were at first confined to the members in need through sickness, and to some service men's wives and families in distress. Donations were sent to the crippled children's fund, the Cancer Society fund, the Tubercu- losis Fund and to Fairview Lodge, the Home for the Aged in Whitby. SERVICE FOR VETERANS When Oshawa boys went to serve in Korea, a system of sending par- | an cels to them was initiated and has been carried on since. The Chapter has also adopted four vet- erans in Sunnybrook Hospital who have no living relatives, ;one of these being a nurse of the South African War. The three men are first war veterans, and between the four, they have spent a great | number of years in hospital. | As time went on, further proj ects were undertaken. Help, fi- | nancial and otherwise, was extend- | ed to those in need. Boxes of books have been sent to the Westmin- ster Military Hospital. Large ham- pers of food and toys were sent to needy families of veterans at Christmas time. Then there many shut - ins, whose needs have been met, and to whom little kind- nesses mean a great deal. | new City H Money has been spent by the association to fight for pensions of needy parents who lost sons im the wars, and. this will continue un- til the goal is achieved.
