Won’t Accept .

Police Chief Thank you citizens of Rich- mond llill This past holiday season has shown us once more that you appreciate peace. goodwill and unbroken bodies more than you like drinking disorder and sad- dened homes. ()ur Christmas and New Years were spent here in almost un- ibclicvablc peace. We finished oil 1962 fatality free. This is a good record considering the trall‘ic that we have flowing ‘tlirough our arteries. ‘ For the record since my first knowing the town in 1950, we have had only two fatalities in .the limits. one in 1957. a pc- ‘destriaii, and one in 1960. a pas- senger iii an automobile. . It would have been nice it‘ we could look back and say: “We 'havc not known of a fatal acci- dent". but looking back is not good for an active community: :50 let us look forward to a bright ‘new 1963 and set our sights on :3 safety award each year to come. lDugald McCowan .Dies Suddenly ‘ Dugald )icCowan. long a .der in the community lif ‘Maple.
