C., addressed the members of the West Vancouver branch of the Legion on Monday evening in the Legion hall. In speaking of the Minute Silence it was customary to keep at all Legion meetings in memory of fallen comrades, he stated that in his case and no doubt in the case of his hearers, some partic- ular comrade who wss sleeping in France would come up in their mind. The one whom most fre- quently he remembered wss a great grandson of Joseph Brsnt, the celebrated Indian chief. This young lieutenant while serving at the second battle of Ypres was killed as he wss in the act of smilingly waving his arm to acknowledge a message from him. The British Empire Ser- vice League of which the Can- adian Legion was a part, had branches or associations all over the Empire, and was doing 0 great work for ex-service men. While both political parties had claimed the credit for the recent more kindly consideration of pension claims, the real mover had been the Canadian Legion. In closing he referred briefly to a scheme for assisting in the higher education of ex-service men's children now being under- taken by the province. It was announced at the busi- ness meeting which followed lat- er that it was intended to give 0 series of whist drives or milit- ary whist starting in January. The matter of the Xmas party was left to the entertainment committee and the Legion W. A, NORTH SHORE JUVENILE FOOTBALI. ASSOCIATIOiV Games for Saturday, Decem- ber 6th, 1930. Division I.
