all this passes before you in review and with the passing of the years for a brief few moments you once again stand to attention throw back your shoulders lift your bead high and with pride and dignity you are once again a member of h m forces and you and millions more like you in all branches of the forces both at home and abroad have all played ajurt in the final act to make possible warriors day 1958 you swallow hard a lump comes in your throat and tcars in your eyes thejess fortunate lie in flanders fields and in foreign countries and lbfr maimed and sick in mind and body at the ma ny hospitals and institutions these also are present at war riors day in remembrance and spirit and gods in his heaven this being warriors day your mind is away ahead of you you figure all traffic is going one way and all highways are one way and all leading to one final des tination the ex you figure you will be tied up in several lanes of traffic bumper to bumper but when you get on the principal highways it s not so bad after all the traffic is moving fast and there are lots of places to pass with safety and lots of room for the other fellow to get in also with every turn of the wheels ou are getting closer and closer and as ou approach the ex you are amazed at the time you have made when suddenly up ahead ou sec all lanes of traffic hac come to a crawl and ou find urself in a maze and again you think oull never jm to the ex now ou are bumper to bum per so near and ct so far traf f ic is mo ing but oh so slowlj what sums to bt hours lacr ou start to think when are we i oinu to park and the mxt thinj nu know tm haw pud our pirkini ki and u ire in thi grounds and ou art parked 111 nimenttd lines like troops 11 parade the first thing ou do 1- spread tht blanket on the grass and sit on it while 011r disorgan ized ner ous s stem straightens itself to a point where all is in 1 order again to prepare ou for tht long ordeal ahead to climb up steps down steps up ramps down 1 ramps into the mam mam buil dings out of buildings down to the lakefront awa from the lake front up over bridges pushed into and jostled around feet tramped on and run ocr b babj buggv wheels together one min ute separated the next together separated in out up down ar ound and around walk rest sitt stand and finall flop jouvc had it you get sales talks into buying a new frtg washing machine elec trie stove a car a prefab house hi ft radio tv and on and on and on you d think from all this sales pressure that moncj grey on trees and all you had to do was to take off what jou needed and make the dreams you have had for years come true this is the ex you get paper shopping bags displaying j all the diffecnt commodities they ham ttt offer entwined around your flagett and matted in on small corner of the bag is the product yon haw purchased yjds of nil ages from eight to eighty wearing all shapes and siaea and colon of paper hats and straw hats and plastic and cloth hats queues of people lined up at the different eating places hun dreds of paper napkins and cups squashed and strewn around the grounds then your eye catches a sign which reads don he a lit ter bog and back to the hundreds of paper cups and patterns and napkins and newspapers strewn all over the ground which goes to prove there are insufficient disposal containers to be found train peoples minds not to be a utter bug and see what hap pens confusion you are amazed what effort is put to use when the ex closes daily and all this refuse is gathered up and the ex made ready for the next onslaught you get a varied assortment f quick lunches hot dogs chips barbecued steak chicken sandwi ches and on a bun weiners eggs na e etc etc mors fuel needed to get around the iexz you buy a small container of chips for j dime the product of one good sized potato if the chain stores charged that for one potato youd have a fit but this is the ex you see people eating a can dy apple on a stick around 1030 in the evening washed down with milk or orange drink which never saw an orange or pop give these t same people the same fruit at home that time of night and theyd accuse you of trying to put their stomachs on the blink thats one thing the ex does for people is to give them a ravenous appetite no matter in which direction at what time of day early morning or late at night you can see people eating if some of the teen agers parents gave their offspring a diet at home like that theyd threaten to board elsewhere or if some of the hard working husbands found a diet in their lunch boxes like they stow awa at the ex and the price thev paj for the same they wouldnt hate enough cash left to i buv the kids shoes or their wife a new dress so we approach the midwa this is the place where money does chant hands rapidh you d pay three bucks or less on the grand stand show and enjov jour time and consider it well spent but on tht nudwa three bucks or more and more and time spent do not go hand in hand you talk about speed and space travel the mid wa has them both licked that- the tx you walk thru the kid dies midwa and amusement park and ou notice all the kids hac one word which seems to be um vcrsal with all kids a five letter word which can complete or shat ter their trend of thought and that word in gimme the kids never had it so good the parents fall in line as do aunties and uncles and grand parents sure let the kids have a good time i want my kids to have what i didn t get when i was their age is what you hear on all sides we could ramble off into a long monotonous whine of what we did not get and what wc had to put up with and how we spent what tittle money we got to spend on what was available the time we were their age times have changed wars and conflicts have made these

appeals of gimme many of us have survived two wars a depression low wages and in some cases no wages wc have suffered mentalk physically and financially gone cold and hungry but todav when we hear laughter of children and sec happiness in their hearts and compare our lot with theirs our sacrifices have not been in vain perhaps some day when children in war torn countries hold out their hands and say gimme the good lord will open peoples hearts a little wider and understanding and thoughts for others and their sor ry plight will be heard and if not in coin but in substance and health giving foods and warm clo thing we shall enable them to en joy their midway and bring laugh tcr to them and happiness in their hearts lets not kid our selves so oldcrs never had it so good either evening approaches the sun goes down the lights come on and the ex is brilliantly lit with thou sands of lights white blue green red a fairy land of colour a fan tasy of the imagination the foun tains and the color scheme of the floral gardens are awe inspiring and really beautiful toronto has done itself proud and no expense has been spared what were ugly parking lots in past years are transformed as if by a magic wand into a series of bathways bordered toy flowers fountains shrubbery and seats where one can rest a while and see and enjoy the lakeshorc trans formation at intervals along the lake shore flag poles painted white carry flags of all nations fluttering in the breexe which tend to add extra colour to the ex and the new system of ligh ting is really good as the day comes to a close a deafening noise is heard in the sky the fireworks display crisscrosses the sky with multiple colours and vivid flash es for a short spell a barrage of loud crashes intercept the oth er noises and the ex closes with a bang you get back to the car- and drive from the grounds and weave your way slowly in to the lanes of traffic the tail lights of the traffic ahead remind one of a christmas tree and as you drive home yea remember what a glor ious day you have enjoyed and hope u repeats itself god willing next year when you can visit the ex in lflfio albert kershaw x ontario street for
