free instruction the four freedoms essay written by terry harley i in the canadian legion contest 1st prize 15 all over the world men are fight ing and dying some for their homes some for their possessions and some for the four freedoms all the eyes at the world are on canada and if we were ever taken by some other country we would lose our precious four freedoms freedom of reli gion of speech of the press and of franchise we must not misuse these but must guard them for genera tion after feneration wje are very very fortunate to have freedom of religion for in some countries people must have the same religion as their ruler or king even if it is against their will any one having their own secret reli gion is either severely punished or is taken before their king canada has so many different religions i cannot list them perhaps you dont think much of saying what you like where you like and when you like maybe you just take that for granted but freedom of speech is just a dream in some european and asiatic countries the people are always being watehed or listened to they have hardly any privacy this is one of the many reasons more and more displaced persons are coming to canada freedom of the press is another freedom it allows almost anything remembrance day essay written by ross mcgilvray in the canadian legion contest 2nd prize 1000 remembrance day was formerly

closer a great poem wrijten by the late john mccrae of guelph where there is a memorial to him is in flanders fields in flanders fields the popples blow between the crosses row on row that mark our place and in the sky the georgetown heraw wednesday june 27th i95l that is the trufh tobe published -in- the larks till bravely singing fly various newspapers each day men come home from theirwork and be fore long are burled in the inter- estings news of worldwide and local affairs most people like the kind of newspapers that pull no punches when addressing dishonest politi cians quotes from government feuds etc our canadian four free- doms make it possible for the edi tors to print the truth without hav ing someone bursting into their of fice and handing out threatsof su ing them as in some foreign coun tries back in the days of of w l mackenzie the council would hire a group of hoodlums to break in to his office and shop and wreck his press type papers etc if he were living today i im sure he would be pleased about the improvement con cerning the press as for the freedom of franchise i am sure we are all satisfied with the way we handle this but in rus sia if the manager of some com pany tells his employees to vote for a certain person they must vote that way or be fired from the moment they leave work they are spied upon- someone is looking over their shoulder while they mark the ballot and if that x is not in the right place the manager will fire them as for canada we can have privacy while we vote for anyone we please looking over the four free doms we concluded that we real ly have got something to be thank ful for we should by now realize that for dps in canada and other democratic countries the four free doms is a dream come true and i am very proud and thankful to be jiving under that dream scarce heard amid the guns below we are the dead short days ago we lived felt dawn saw sunset glow loved and were loved and now we lie in flanders fields take up
