So’ when we-in Terrace think about: the poppy, we. might’ be reminded the. Cana- “dians who. died liberating Europe created a world a little better than the one they knew.’ Another thing to think about is that by the time thousands of young Canadians went to war,: _Burope was-enslaved, They died “liberating millions of people. _ .

The poppy is not just about the -past, It-has.aJot to do with the future of all of us, The pop- - py asks us:to think about how we can work for peace and a better. country, to think about our freedom. It also asks us to think:about our.sense of respon- -sibility,-be it in our classrooms, homes,” workplace or communi- ty, ‘The poppy urges us to use peace to help Mankind, to pro- mote a more lasting peace, understanding and, above all, the dignity of Man ‘everywhere. - The Canadians who died ‘believed in a better future. It is up to all of us.to work for that future.

Although the numbers seek- ing the help offered by NWADS and the community's other drug and alcohol counsellors are growing, Campbell does not believe that necessarily indicates the problem is getting worse. ‘*E think it might well be that, with awareness being raised, more ‘people are coming in for help.” . Also, there has been a sharp - upward trend recently in visits from people who were brought up in alcoholic homes or find themselves now living with the problem, “‘An awful lot. of those people are coming in for help.” Whatever the reason for seek- . ‘ing: a counsellor’s assistance, : Campbell stresses people can be assured of complete confiden- ‘tiality, “We never discuss a client with anyone, not even other family members, unless cwe are given permission to do 0," she says. tk kink Northwen Drug and Alcohol Service kicked off this year’s Drug Awareness Week by nam- ‘ing thé Winners of its recent ‘poster contest.

Lung Association conducts its major money raising campaign of the year. This area last year contributed $5,600 to the association by purchasing Christmas Seals and the goal this year is $6,000, said Jerry Miller, its public relations representative, The association uses the money to do research and educa- tion in various diseases such as lung cancer, asthma, em- physema and job-related respiratory ailments. Christmas Seals have their origin in Denmark and they’ve been part of the lung association’s efforts to raise money since the early 1990s.

Heart and Stroke Foundation and last week that organization said a special ‘thank you’ with the presenta- tion of certificates of recognition and service pins, Describing the Terrace unit as ‘‘the best in the region,” regional co-ordinator Betty Campbell said the pair's efforts | were in large part responsible for that success. Pointing out Hallsor had been an area captain — the in- dividual responsible for organizing donation canvasses in a specific area of the community — since 1979, Campbell said Hallsor had put in a lot of time and done *‘a wonderful job'’” in the process. , Enriquez had also been an area captain before taking over the president's job, one which she has held for the past five years. Campbell said part of the Foundation’s mandate was to educate people about heart disease and Enriquez had played a major role in ensuring that goal was met, HEARTFELT APPRECIATION.
