EfTeciive in 1971, there will be no longe- an Artnlstiee Day, and no longer will November 11 hold the significance it did. For with tile new holiday schedule, this day becomes Veterans Day and will be observed on the fourth Monday in October.
Commander Jim Manning intro¬ duced the speaker for the day, the Rev. Dr. Robert Franks of the First Congregational Church of Huntley. His timely talk reminded us that we must maintain our pstrio tism and work for the preservation of our country.

Taps were sounded, and the last November 11th Armistice Day came to a close.
