Thank
_ You

Dear Sir;

Random acts of kindness go un-
reported éveryday, I felt this one
had to be reported.

My. husband ‘and I decided to
cement under our carport. While
we were at it we also decided to
put a curb down our long
driveway, We thought we could
do the job ‘ourselves. We were
wrong, Very Wrong,

We — ordered cement from
Skeena Concrete Products Lid.
The drivers are very busy, and on
# tight schedule,

When I:came home the truck
was parked in the driveway. The
scene before me was quite amaz-
ing. The driver was helping. Ac-
tually, ‘he’ was instructing and
doing the work, as my father-in-
law helped.

The driver was late for another
job, but continued to help, He put
us all to work, so we could get
the job finished. He sent my bus-
band to his house to borrow the
tools we needed.

The sweat poured from the
driver’s face. He. shoveled, in-
stnicted, and sweat some more.
All he really had to do was drop
the cement, sit in his truck and
wait. He didn’t. We finished the
wark, We offercd him money for
his hard labour. He declined. We
didn’t even get his namie. .

But another amazing thing hap-
pened: He came back. Several
hours later on his own time, He
again went to work to smooth the
cement, so it had a nice profes-
sional finish.

This time we asked his name. It
was Larry. We gushed our ap-
preciation.

Thank you seems so small. Tex-
citedly told the story to my
daughter. ‘‘Mom,”’ my daughter
said, “‘this was a random act of
kindness.”

We apologize for any in-
convenience we may have caused
anyone else, We are very grate-
ful. We will definitely bire a con-
tractor for our next large project,

Skeena Concrete I want you to
know that Larry is your best pub-

lic relations person you have, He —

deserves a raise. Just so 'others

know, this was a random act of

kindness from someone that cared

about a job. So much he couldn’t
stand to see a job poorly done,

THE FALL season starts off at
the legion with our Annual
Terrace Open Darts Tourna-
ment, September 29. Hopeful-
ly we will have a good turn
out and as successful a tourna-
ment as past years.

Our next general meeting is
on October 10th at 8:00 pm. It
should not be as long as our
September. meeting, but
should be of interest to all our
members. Your Management
and Finance committee will be
met September 19, and should
have a report ready for the
members at the October meet-
ing. t

For those | members _inter-:
ested, both darts and cribbagé

‘are in full swing’on Wednes-
day evenings. ‘By: all accounts -

thé first few nights have been
quite busy and entertaining.
The weekend of October 13-

15 we will be hosting the
North Western Zone meeting.
Observers to this meeting are
welcome. The Branches meet
in the canteen while the Ladies
Auxiliary will be meeting at
the Happy Gang Centre.

The Ladies Auxiliary would
like to remind everyone that
their regular general meetings

go September to June, the first _

Tuesday of every month, and
they welcome any new mem-|
bers. They are also open for
bookings for Christmas cater-
ing. Please contact Lisi at 635-

We had a very successful
Westem night on September
16. Everyone seemed to enjoy
the evening. Hopefully we can
keep these specials going and
help the branch back onto its
feet after a very slow summer:

Remembrance Day is just
around the corner, and Cmde
McCrea and his crew will be

Legion hosts darts tourney

can get, so if you have a little
time on your hands please
contact Cmde Bill or Cmde
Haigh. I am sure they will be
glad to hear from you.

We have a new 2nd Vice
President — Cmde Pat Smith.
Iam sure Pat, who has been
doing a great job with our
bingos, will continue his dedi-
cated work,

We have survived another
very slow summer. Hopefully
our winter activities will atlow
us to continue to serve our
veterans, their dependents, our
youth and the community. I
know we will need to do a [ot
of soul searching before next
summer if we are to survive.
So anyone who has any sug-
gestions for the good and wel-
