In addition to this l26 applications
for victory medals were also handled.
I'VE are anxious that every ex-
service man have his victory medal" >"
Mrs. Squires stated. Those who do
not seure their medals now will re-
gret II in the future, because as time
goes on. the victory medal. the beau
tiful insignia Of service will be some
thing all will treasure"

financially or otherwise.
Among the soldiers needs cared
for are: Bonus and travel pay: in
surance, allotment allowance. arrears
