FORMER RESIDENT Phil Freer, naw living in Fort Langley, B.C., dropped in at The Champion the other day whle revisiting the town for the frst time in over 20 yeara. e said he was amazed at the growth and didn't recognize many arean of the town. He brought along two photos of Main St. which fellow reaidents of the 1950s wil I find interesting. Top photo shows a Rotary Club peanut parade in 1953. In the background are McClure's Appliances, Tom Dear Shoes, Eaton's Order Office and Milton Hardware. Lower photo shows the Main St. looking cast in 1952, as published on a potcard. There have been a lot of changes, Mr. Freer admifs. JIM "SHEENIE" SHEPHERD was a oel known local character. He ran a taxi service for nany years and oas famous for his colorful com- menturies on local life. He oas an avid raconteur and his taxi customers lways got $5 worth of entertainesent with cvery $1 ride. Hes pictured with his toco cars in front of the Main St. taxi stand, now Lockcraff Ca. Photo louned by Mrs. Edith Sharpe. Home, garden publication available ho 'ed îfiih Publicatîo64. *' 17770ta- tIr laume (ardes" las een rero'îed andsaca acaitahie.
