Easter Parcels For Boys Overseas
Last Monday members of the local 1.C.C.E. chapter met in the United Church Annex and packed eighty seven parcels sent to men and women from this community with the armed forces overseas. Each parcel contained a knife, tin of kiok, tomato juice, handkerchief, writing paper and envelopes, toothpaste, shaving cream, razor blades, chocolate, gum and cigars. The gift from the folks at home will be appreciated by the recipients and the ladies deserve credit for their efforts.
