Make Remembrance Day One to Remember

Remembrance Day will be observed on a
Sunday this year: Sunday, November 11th,
Armistice Day, as it is also known,

year, "Those who march in the annual parade are
fewer each year as the Grim Reaper takes his
toll; the appreciation of the importance of the
event is diminished as young people fail to
understand the real meaning of
Day and pay too much attention to the outward
symbols of uniforms and guns instead of the
significant meaning of the blood-red poppy;

frionds find it increasingly easy to view the day
as just another day off from work, instead of a
day of remembrance,

With Armistice Day falling on a Sunday this
year, perhaps the opportunity is provided to
make a concentrated effort to make this year's
observance one that will be long remembered.

poignant on the soft air,
and the spurt of orange
flame us someone pokes up
his fire. It’s against the law
to burn leaves, but such
laws were not made for
small towns, and are gener-
ally ignored. Any why not?

All the burning leaves in
all the small towns of Canada
wouldn't. pollute the air as
much as one hour on five
per cent of the highways
in Canada, with about a
million stinking cars belch-
ing their bad breath,

But October has some-
thing for everyone. The
hunter is happy. He can
squat in a blind until he’s
almost crippled, or lurch
through a swamp until he’s
almost on his last lurch.
He may see nothing more
than a few late and lazy
crows, or the starling head-
ing south, but by George, he
feels’ great when he gets

More intelligent hunters,
of course, will go after
partridge, and prowl along
an old bush road. in com-.
fort. The most intelligent
hunters will sit down in the
sun, lean against the bole
of a tree, have a perfectly
telaxed nap,:and go home

-with a'good appetite and a

clear conscience.

Fishermen like October.
They flog themselves out of
bed in order to hit the
water at dawn. Every one
of them has a lurking hunch
that this morning he's going
to hit that big rainbow.
And he can stand there,
shivering, in the’ misty
morning, happy in the
knowledge that none of the
nuisance anglers of Opening
Day will be fouting his linc,
scaring the fish. They're all
home in bed.

For the sports fun,
October is the zenith of
the year. He might see almost
nothing of his family for
a month, but he's us happy

switching channels as he

October is Thanksgiving.
By some piece of uncanny
good luck or good judgment,
it usually turns out to be
a beautiful weekend, and
this year’s was nigh perfect,
in these parts.

It’s a grand occasion for
closing up the cottage, or
getting together with the
family for a gorge of turkey.
and. punkin pie, or just
getting out into the country
and counting the things you
have to be thankful for.

This year we had our
daughter and her husband
for the holiday. She insisted
on cooking the entire
Thanksgiving dinner, And
she insisted on using her
method, which is known as
slow roasting.

This method “keeps all
the good of the turkey in,

and rivhen, an finished,, it’s...

You cook. it for hele

degrees, instead of the usual

I've cooked in’ the normal
fashion, and they always
come out. golden, meat
falling off the bones.

I said, “Carry on, kid.”
My wife bit her lip, her
tongue and her fingernails,
but kept silent. Every hour -
or so she couldn't stand it,
and would sneak out, while
Kim wasn’t in the kitchen,
and have a look. The turk
just lay there, like a. big,
dead bird. It was pretty
obvious that the only process
that was setting in was
rigor mortis.

But no interference with
modern methods, The grand
moment arrived, after cook-

so I did the honours. I like

Meat falling off the
bones? I had ‘to tear it off
with pliers. But it was a
great dinner. The stuffing
was well and truly stuffed,
the . canned peas
exceptionally tender, and
the white wine was bang on.

There. was only one
catch. The kids had to get
their bus right after dinner.

That was Monday evening.’
