offer to take 1 000 from cur rent taxes and add this to the 1952 grant and members are already planning how the extra money can best be used the suggestion has been made that a competent architect be

wrorth legi0h h0tes bttofuei we gftve you the little bit of new wa have this week we would like to km a point across aa far aa this column la concerned legion note are siipnoeed to con- alft qf news of the branch and news in the newspaper world la omethina that has happened not lame event taking place ln the future that la advertising and ai a newspaper derive 1u income from advertising h can hardly be expected to ttlve it free in the newi column w think that the use of this column run been given u the paat to various legion ectivi- ties that are nop profit making or pfuilbiy a mention of the annual kiddles christmas tree or other activities of a similar nature this whole matter has hean brougiu ut in answer to criticism we have heard of our column not carrying rnouglf publicity for cerjalir ev ent this u most certainly not true si in tha fjrat place the edi tor of this pspej- is the ooe who should be seen for publicity as after sll we only work here and have not the authority to decide what is news and what ia public ity thet word publicity inci dentally in our opinion ai in the opinion of sny person who has had anything to do with a newapaper bring just another way of saying free advertising so in the future if you have any news by all means five it to us were always glsd to have it and wr never have been forced to draw the line too closely but if there happens to be an event in the future that you wish publi cised please see the editor that is his department as we sold before we only work here and as a last word on this we also have heard that a number of people feel that there has been too much legion news devoted to the hockey this winter to that well merely may that if anyone comes along with sn idea ilka sponsoring kid hockey and further putting it oveit the way alf scotty and the reat of the boys did then they wll art as much credit as the hock ey nnvi had- in fact while we are on thr subject of the legion note wed like to say that we arc always open to criticism prov iding it- of the constructive und not destructive type in fact wed be only loo happy lo have ihe var ious members of our 13 ranch con tribute the odd column after all though we do enjoy writing ii it docs take a lo of time and certain ly wed only be too happy to havo romioih ele have a crack at it- juvkniles went to the town and couutry last thursday us guests of harold mcclure
