. Page 2 THE HAIL EYBURIAN THURSDAY, APRIL 16th, 1931 Anniversary of Famous Battle Observed Here Local Veterans Are Guests Of I. O. D. E. at Banquet On Vimy Night Haileybury veterans of the Great War again recailed the an- niversary of the famous battle of Vimy on Thursday night last, when they were the guests of the local Chapter of the 1. O. D. E. at the usual banquet in the Oddfel- lows' hall. There was a large gathering, a splendid supper ser- ved by the ladies and a program of addresses and songs that was greatly enjoyed by all. Chas. E. Fleming president of the Haileybury branch of the Canadian Legion, was chairman for the evening and in opening the program spoke with regret of the absence from the gathering of Mrs. C. C. Farr and Mrs. H. C. Dunbar, both prominent in the councils of the 1.O.D.E. and par- ticular friends of the veterans. Both of the ladies were on the sick list. The chairman welcom- ed to the gathering the members of the juvenile hockey team which had won the championship of the town league, the "Whizz- Bangs," who were guests at the banquet Col. E. F. Armstrong, of Cobalt proposed the toast to The King, ) open the program, in a speech in which he referred to the recent illness of His Majesty, to the love and respect that was held throughout the Empire for the Prince of Wales and to the new Governor-General of Canada. The latter, he stated, is an Irishman and his "excellent lady" is French thus serving to weld closer the two great races of Canada. Rev. Fred Smith, also of Cob- alt, proposed the toast to "Our Fallen Comrades", speaking of| the great part played by the Can- adian soldiers in all theatres of the war. The thought of the fal- len, he said, brought memories of} the great sacrifice they had made its geographical position, ideal climate, great natural resources and the two great nationalities which are welded together to form its population. He spoke of the important part Canada play- ed in the league of Nations, her high ideals and great principles and her loyalty to the British Empire as a great, democratic, self-governing country, and end- ed with an exhortation that the principles of loyalty, justice, hon- or and truth for which the fallen had laid down their lives, be maintained, together with a spirit of godliness which would make Canada a country worth dying for. H. A. Day proposed the toast to the I. O. D. E., in a speech in which he combined humor and a serious tribute to the work of the women during the great war. Problems had been solved at that time, he said, that appeared to puzzle the people of today, they apparently having lost the spirit of self sacrifice that carried them through the years of the great struggle. There had been~the same conditions throughout his- tory, the speaker said, particul- larly following the Napoleonic wars, when the exaltation of spirit that had existed during the crisis had dimmed. Mr. Day said that he thought it proper that gatherings of the nature of this should be held, in order that peo- ple might look back and realize to what heights humanity can rise when the need is great. Phis, he believed, would help in solying present day problems and in im- proving conditions as they are. That the founder of the Canad- ian Legion was a man who wish- ed to perpetuate memories the | most vivid and touching ever held} by men, was the statement of R.| H. McGowan, of Cobalt, in pro-| posing the toast to the body. Hhe did not know who the founder of the Legion was, but he gave credit. to the late Earl Haig, as a friend and counsellor of the or- ganization, who was inspired to instil the spirit, which had car- ried their comrades into death, in the men who returned and to carry that spirit into their future} life. The Canadian soldier had wrote a very glorious page on the and of the great benefit that had come to the world through 12 years of peace. There was stilla duty, the speaker said, and a higher and more noble service for the future. We should put the best we can into our citizenship, not glory in war but accept the challenge to see that there shall be no more war. In proposing the toast to "Can- ada" Rey. Canon Hincks sketched briefly some of the historic ev- ents and great men who had tak- en part in the Dominion's affairs, LAND TITLES ACT scroll of fame, the speaker said, and he was glad to see a number of young men invited to the gathering, not in the sense of glorifying war, but that they might be taught.something of the forth to fight for truth and jus-) tice. The Canadian Legion had done wonders, but with a larger membership it might have done more. It was the most exclusive club in the world and the greatest Clear It Up Now that sore throat, quinsy, tonsilitis, laryngitis, hay fever, cold, whooping-cough, bronchitis, Auction Sale of valuable Business and Resid- ential Property in the Town of Haileybury.

McCracken, super- intendent for the Children's Aid Society, asks us to make known the fact that there are nine child- ren, recently brought to the Shelter here, who are badly in need of clothing. He hopes that the citizens of Haileybury, who have been very generous in the past, will be able to provide at least a part of the articles need- ed. The children comprise two families, both mothers having been compelled to go into hospit- al and leave their little ones tem- porarily at the shelter. There are girls aged 7, 10, 11, 12 and 13 and boys aged 2, 4,5, and 7. Any article of clothing will be grate- fully received if left at the shel- ter, or if Mr. McCracken is noti- fied they will be called for.

The unknown boarded No. 2 at Swastika, bought a ticket from Conductor T. Hamilton and, somewhere between Krugerdorf and Mindoka, made his exit through the front door of the second class coach. He appar- ently worked his way to the out- side of the vestibule next the baggage car and one of the pas- sengers saw him as he rolled clear of the tracks. The onlooker told the conductor, about 10 min- utes later, that he had seen the man perform the daring stunt and when the train reached En- glehart, the section men went up the line to investigate. They discovered that there had been no serious injury suffered, but did not learn who the man was. It is believed that he was under the influence of liquor.

O. brakeman who lost both his legs in an accident in the Cobalt yards on February 21st last, and has spent the intervening time in the Mines Hospital there, was suf- ficiently recovered on Saturday last to be removed to his home in Englehart. With Mr. Smith, who has stayed in Cobalt since the in- jury to her husband, he made the trip without difficulty and is now recuperating at home, Both Mr. Smith's legs were amputated be- low the knees, after being badly crushed under the wheels of a freight car while switching in the yards.
