auditorium grounds. Her IDEA was ina
on Arbor Day anyone desiring 10 90
nate a small tree in memory OF some
dear one, do so, the Boy Scouts to 90
t6e planting. The lady suggested tnae
funds he raised to make that section OF
tho park beautiful. We agreed with
her for after all it's almost the hrSt
Mace enc sees as they drive into the
Park and there are immense posslblh-
ties to identifying this spot. More
