sing an place any time one of the nicest things that we feel has been done is that annual trophy given to the dart champion presented in memory of the late fred gilmer by his sons we can not think of any one thing that could have been a finer- remem brance of fred he was a keen dart player and an excellent leg ion member and was and still is sorely missed by many of his comrades every time we hear of that trophy we think of the man it was named after and further we think of one his finest qualities and one which most of we mortals lack to greater or les ser extent the ability to either say something nice about a per son or not to say anything at all fredskthier came to our mind as we stood in the legion hall on sunday and watched the mem bors arriving for the remembrance parade and particularly were we struck with that thought when we saw that group of first war vets who were such great and constant friends of his we have always admired the trait of the first war vets in the way they have always more or less remained friends down through he yean we have felt that this was is winter the best time- woric around your homo or placo of busfaiosst btw winter men and materials are
