Solicitor to the administrators ellous ctntributions to our fighting naval men and our merchant seamen and its sixteen hostels and reaction centres have added greatly towards the welfare and comfort of these men of the sea. It is interesting to note that during 1943 more than five mil- lion seamen crossed the thresholds ol the 'Navy League Seamen's Clubs where good meals and comfortable sleeping accommodation were provid- ed at cost, while hot and cold shower baths, medical and nu'-sing services, recreation and pleasing entertain- ment, and many other services were given at no cost to seamen. When these men leave the Navy League hostels, they o so with courage in their hearts and thankfulness be- cause of the generosity of Canadian people for all that they have receiv- ed. The taggers for the Navy Leag- ue in this community will feel that they have performed a noble and pa- 1 triotic service if every citizen gives them the support which they need at this time. We must not allow this opportunity to pass for it forms the first link in the chain that stretches from this community to our brave men of the seas, carrying our con- crete "thank you" for the tremendous service they are rendering in pro- tecting and serving us, for if it were not for these men, the battles of this war might well be fought on the streets, lanes, highways and fields of our own country. Let us rise to this task and carry out the noible traditions of Lord Nel- son who said so many years ago, "England expects that every man this day will do his duty." Anniversary Services will be held in Vandeleur Church on Sunday, Oct. 8th, afternoon and evening at 3 and 8 o'clock. Rev. S. E.
