It has occurred to us that we forgot to mention one who greatly helped to make it the success it was. We refer to Comrade Arthur Turpin. Without his public address system it would have been impossible for many in attendance to have followed the service. We trust we may, through your columns, convey to Comrade Turpin our sincere thanks and humble apologies for not having included him in our last week's artcle. We might also take this opportunity of thanking "The Express" for the publicity and space so generously donated to this and other activities of the Legion over a period of many years. Thanking you, we are Gratefully yours, Legion Branch 187. CARDS OF THANKS DINGMAN--Mrs. E. E.
