The next meeting is to be held in the Community Hall on July IN MEMORIAM 20th. Oxdrift Memorial The last Sunday in June is the day set apart by the returned men in the Oxdrift District as their day. Year after year has seen the Community Hall packed almost at times to the point of suffocation, with friends. relatives and sympathizers of those who fell and those who remain. Each year sees a smaller number, 4s one by one the answer to the Last Roll Call is made. Heads turn grey, shoulders a little more stooped, hands a trifle more shaky, but the old spirit that carried them through the dreary, dead days of '14 to '18 is still present. So as usual on Sunday last, a score or more of the old brigade paid their annual tribute to the memory of the boys they left behind in Flanders' Fields. The hall was brightly decked with streamers of red, white and blue. Gay garlands and bunches of flowers decorated the platform. The flag, the symbol of the mighty Empire for which the heroes died, was draped WALKER--In fond and loving mem- ory of our dear son and brother, Arthur O. S. Walker, who died July 7th, 1929.

Come again. Oxdrift Women's Institute. The Oxdrift Women's Institute held their monthly meeting at the home of Mrs. Wallace MacTavish on June 15th, eighteen members and five visi- tors being present. Business was discussed and a demonstration was given on the spinning wheel: A de- or jubilation "O God Our Help Ages Past" was sung, all joining in, and making one grand volume of music, greatly aided by the orchestra consisting of Messrs. Turnbull and Hardy, violins; Joe Cross, trombone; and KE. Shultz, cornet, with Mr. Whiteley at the piano. Followed a responsive reading of the Scripture, after which "Fight the Good Fight" was sung by ithe congregation. The Rev. Mr. Cann read an appropriate lesson from St. John's Gospel, and then XKipling's "Recessional"' was heartily sung by the large congrega- tion. Mr. Howes led in able and earnest prayer, then the returned men's favorite was sung, "Soldiers of Christ Arise." The Rev. Cann was the speaker this year, and gave a most heartening and encouraging address from the text 'Because T = Dryden Lumber Company, Ltd.

Also." He Show- ed that the virtues for which the comrades had were not dead. sacrificed their lives Freedom of thought, freedom of action, justice, and fair play, though at times under a cloud, and seemingly dormant; were in reality very much alive, and kept so by such services as were being held that day in Oxdrift, and that as long as there were returned men who met, if only once a year to commemorate the memory of the "glorious dead)" such virtues could never die. At the end of this able address, the hymn "T.ead on O King Eternal' was sung. Amid deep silence the "Last Post" rang out, blown by Master Shultz of Eagle River. Then the "two minutes," the solemnity of which is broken by the joyous notes of the 'Reveille'. The Benediction from Mr. Howes and the National Anthem by the orchestra and congregation brought to a close another anniversary of Remembrance Day in Oxdrift. The Oxdrift branch of the Legion wishes to thank the Rev. Mr. Howes and Rev. Mr. Cann for their able and willing services in this connec- tion. Also to the members of the orchestra who travelled from Dryden and Eagle River to assist in making a success of a notable day. To the many who filled the hall and by their presence helped all to realize the significance of the service, thanks are due, and also to the Comrades from Eagle River for their atten- dance and assistance. As in former years the collection will be forward- ed to aid the Red Cross funds. "If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies blow IN FLANDERS' FIELDS."

For the first nine- teen days of any month Alex wan- ders about in a daze, after the nine- teenth--well a different outlook with a different Alex brightens our dreary lives. Too bad that Sunday was the eighteenth of the month. Even the | substitution of the month of May could nog lift him from the slough of despond.

Camp 1-B-5 is to be congratulated, they did their best but it just wasn't good enough. They departed singing the doleful ballad, 'There ain't no-- justice," accompanied by Paul Lacosse on the wash-tub. Bob Openshaw, Camp 1-B-5 captain, departed with "Vengeance is mine," saith the Lord --"T"ll have some of that, thank you too much."
