In every community there are those who quietly and cheerfully carry out some little task without the fanfare of trumpets or the blare of publicity â€" little tasks that bring contentment and happiness to many. Such a person is Mrs. A. Ung'er who for many years with her class of boys and girls from the Public School have taken care of the little flower beds that mean so much to the veteran who has left his pal over thereâ€"the little flowers in front of the War Memorial. With the means at her disposal Mrs. Unger and her girls and boys have done a grand jobâ€"41nd to you. we the Veterans of Vaughan and Richmond Hill say a great big‘ THANK YOU. While we are on the subject how- ever we do think that such an im- posing“ memorial is worthy of some- thing better than Annuals. Surely those who desire to beautify our village will agree that such a meâ€" morial is worthy of the finest of shrubbery that would remain green the year round. There would still be ample room for the flowers of the girls and boys. ‘ COMRADES, OLD AND YOUNG Phone 77 on tms Iarm has been Iollowed by a white brick house now occupied by Lawrence Keffer, whose father Reuben Keffer lives in Maple and whose grandfather, Peter Keffer, was a_son of Jacob the pioneer.
