people from othrr countries and travellers from distant points in the dommon passing through or visiting look for cards portraying scenes ot interest or when someone is away from home and talks about the beauty of georgetown your friends ask you to send them some cards to show what you ve been raving about vc hat happens i he postcards in the stores when available are old and out of date and show very tew of the tree lined streets and dozens ot things which arc interesting pictorial material why doesnt some local photographer look into this it might be a profitable sideline beaut v is

personification of the georgetown sewerage system was the beat coatume we have seen in many a year there is talk of having this years remembrance commemoration on the proper day november llth rather than on the nearest sunday as has been customary in the past there should be some straws in tire wind soon with nomination day drawing close up to the present no council member has officially declined to run though two or three have said privately that they do not in tend to contest a seat this year incidentally we hope some publicspirited citizens are giving thought to standing for election to the
