r kr n haltoaimp rmkwhitipg before going back to ot tawa for the opening of the se cond session o the 28th par liament i was talking to the owner of a small manufacturing business in georgetown who in the mail bag t tlat remembrance she stood looking at the white cross beneath the spruce trees many times in years past she had come here and visited this last shrine to a beloved brother this had been their ftuvorite tree it was here they bad shared secrets they had always been close friends sharing their hopes and dreams now they were all dead under that whit cross kevin had teased her mercilessly but she- bad only laughed he bad been several years older than she but they had been inseparable buddies there had been no utue girls living close by as a result she bad became quit a tomboy she looked wistfully down to the valley where they had raced across the meadow she could still see him standing there triumphantly with bis blue eyes laughing and his blond hair blowing in the wind his lithe frame graceful and poised ready to jump onto his pony and gallop away he had loved the crocus blooming in the early spring the robins nest in the crabappoe tree and the swing ing bridge across the gurgling stream they had gone fishing down the tiver in the summertime they had rolled up their blue jeans and waded to the eld rowfeoat mom had always packed a delicious lunch they had pent several hours in solitude and quiet not having to talk to under stand the golden silence enveloped them like a halo as they drifted lazi ly down the river in the autumn they had walked through the forest exploring nature and sharing their discoveries they bad never discovered whether the woodpecker they had called charlie stayed all winter or not in winter they had gone sleigh riding they had harnessed their two shaggy ponies to the sleigh and had a fabulous time swooping over the snowdrifts they had grown up together he had had a hot rod in his early teens how proudly they had roared around the town on sercy times had changed and years had passed she had gone to college and he had joined the air force she had never formed a close friendship and always had looked forward to holi days at home then there was the war he had been anxious to get into the war so that he could have a share in the intimate conversation remenv bering their youth and their wars which gramps and dad had indulged in then he had gone overseas he had written letters and when they stop ped she had panicked then her fears had been confirmed she was sure he would have died bravely fi ghting till the end there never had been anything cowardly about him several years had passed since that fateful day when the family had re- ceived the formal letter stating that keonn was reported missing in prance she turned away and sob wrack ed her weary and tired body those days were gone only memories sinful memories remained to torture her there was pain in rem embering but a sad joy too the years would pass by but she would not forget him he had never been selfish he had always shared his happiness feeling deeply and sensi tively he had been the most perfect brother any girl could ever have in telligent kind and understanding the pain was still there the empti ness the loneliness overwhelming her emotions she seemed devoid of feeling except for the hollow ind continuous pain of remembering in deed life had passed her by now she was no longer young ev ery november 11th she would pay this last tribute to an unknown sol dier her brother the pain of rem embering would tear her mind ap art the tears rolled down her fur rowed cheek wrathfully sbe hurled the defiant words he fought for his country he died for his country what did his country give to him in her hollow echoes of her memory she knew the answer a simple answer but so co veted while he had lived he bad been free now he had passed his freedom to the people he loved and to the many people who could never thank him for his sacrifice she lifted tearful eyes to che hea vens and realized the truth it was gods will that kevin had left this earth she could only pray that she would find the same peace that ha had rnet for men must fight and women must weep yes she and many oth ers had wept and were weeping this november 11 as you see the crosses think of kevin and his con tribution tohis country think of the poppies growing on the graves of the soldiers in flanders fields who fought valiantly for whatothey belie ved was right remember the un known soldiers who gave their li ves for your freedom have they died in vain what

october 23rd edition i agree with mrs cor- daro that religious training should be kept in the public schools many parents dont give their children any relig ious training at all so where are they to get it but in the public school the best guide to raising children or even how to be come a good citizen is the 10 commandments in teaching a child these and about god you are preparing him for what ever this world may throw his way and for the next world as well they still may not turn out for the best but they still have a good basic training there is 10 much emphasis on sex education today with all the facts but now people want to stop teaching the most im portant facts which are found in the bible with more knowledge of the bible i doubt if there would be told ma be bad never bean bu

and take a good look at the performance of the government and appraise its actions and policies in rela tion to the country sa a whole and particularly in relation to halton well i have had time to think but atrange to say i did not have all the time i had ex pected instead the summer turned into a period at great activity but i must say it was enjoyable activity i visited ev ery part of the riding and waa able to take time and discuss government plans and achieve ments as well as talk to many people about personal and com munity problems which related to the federal government- it is surprising the number of such problems which do arise and they involved four special trips to ottawa for discussions with various departments looking ahead there is much new legislation coming up

then realized there were certain things they had to know and in this un certain world i needed help in raising them i couldnt find a better guide than gods word and by taking them not sending them to sunday school i have god to thank for many things but most of all for a mother who cared enough to take me to church if my children who are under 10 learn nothing more in life they will learn about god and the bible parents take heed for judge fawcett of brooklyn new york said that out of 2700 boys brought before his court not one of them was a sunday school pupil does this tell you anything thank you the big problem facing the government and the people of canada is inflation the prime minister has already spoken on inflation as has the hon mr benson minister of finance and we are going to hear much more about inflation from a great number of people both inside and outside of par liament along with the ques tion of inflation we are going to hear much on the war on poverty which should be rated as a major priority but as someone baa said we cannot win the war on pov erty with inflation raising the cost of living at every turn it is like trying to fight a battle with damp ammunition i am pleased to announce on behalf of the government of canada the approval of a fed eral loan in the amount of 89575 to assist in the con struction of a six unit housing project for
