Public Meeting For Memorial In City
A preliminary step to establish a soldiers memorial in the city calls for a Divine meeting at City Hall on Monday evening August 20. Invitations have gone to over fifty city organizations to ensure a representative gathering and enlist broad support for a possible library style memorial building if a suitable site is found. The Mayor will preside, and the aim is a thoroughly representative war memorial movement without a fund drive, exploring patriotic support and alternative methods to reach the end.
