Helen and her sister at- tended a musical celebration in Norfolk United Church, Guelph, in remembrance of Guelph native, Dr. John McCrae. Helen said the church was packed and a singsong of old war songs brought tears and laughter to one and all. A motion made for a cheque to be sent to Halton's Women's Place was passed.

Legion president Gary Munday (right) read the Legion Charge and the Reverend Mark Tiller of St. Alban's Church led the prayers. -- Frances Niblock photo Acton remembers war dead Continued from Page 1 go on forever. Under a grey, overcast sky on Sunday morning at the Mill Street cenotaph, Acton's Frank Spielvogel read the list -- his voice wa- vering and breaking at times as he carefully pronounced each of the 43 names of the men and boys whose names will live forever. Less contamination Continued from Page 1 Rovers said they scraped a "skiff of soil -- eight to 10 centimetres -- on 60-acres of spray fields to remove soil with higher than allowable levels of chromium sulphate. That soil and other non-haz- ardous waste materials wil! be consolidated in an 11-acre landfill in the centre of the property. Rovers said Maple Leaf Foods would like to move a _ PCB storage facility from the property, but it's a long-range plan. The Beardmore Company opened the tannery in 1844 and operated it until 1944 when Canada Packers pur- chased it. The tannery closed in 1986 and until 1993, when ownership changed to Maple Leaf Foods, various tenants rented space in the facility. The remainder of the buildings and structures on site will be demolished this spring as the waste consoli- dation continues. Rovers said final grading and capping is slated for 2001 and monitor- ing of the site will continue for the foreseeable future. "The property will then be looking forward to the future, whatever that is, and there are no plans for that at the present time." The decommissioning of the former Beardmore site will be discussed at tonight's (Thursday) annual general meeting of P.O.W.E.R. - the north-Halton environmental group. A Ministry of Energy and Environment official will be on hand at Acton High school to answer ques- tions and concerns. "Applications for the 1998 Christmas Hamper Program will be accepted at The Salvation Army Family Services Office 120 Mill Street East, Acton on Tuesdays and Thursdays between the hours of 9:00 am and 12:00 Noon and on Saturday, December 12th between 10:00 am and 12:00 Noon. Applications are requested to apply in person and provide identification. The Deadline for applications is Saturday, December 12th, 1998. The Acton Christmas Hamper Program is.a project of The Salvation Army, Acton Rotary Club, the I.O.D.E. and St. Vincent de Paul Society." Led by the Acton Citi- zens' Band, old and young, boys and girls, Scouts, Guides, police officers, church officials, elected offi- cials and Legion members marched proudly and rever- ently to the Cenotaph war memorial, guarded by mem- bers of "C" Company Lorne Scots. Hundreds of residents, including the congregations of both Trinity United and Acton Baptist churches, stood quietly as the repre- sentatives of groups and or- ganizations laid their wreaths. Acton Citizens' Band master George Elliott played Last Post and Reveille as the crowd reflected on the mean- ing of duty, courage and country and of the sacrifice's this Town's solders made to ensure that Canadians enjoy peace, freedom and democ- racy. After Trinity United Rev- erend Bob Matton read the benediction, the Colour Guard led the way into Trin- ity for a Service of Remem- brance. At 11 yesterday (Wednes- day) morning The Royal Cana- dian Legion Branch 197 helda brief ceremony at the Cenotaph and stood for a minute's silence for the 115,000 Canadians sol- diers who fought and died. eS NEW BABY At your house?
