Oakner District News and Family Celebrations in Hamiota
Mrs. Ella Anderson returns from a BC trip for her nephew Lyle Burt’s wedding. Families gather around September events in Oakner and nearby towns. Notes correct a name error for new neighbours the Nesbitts and mark school openings and college plans for Routledge siblings. Anniversaries and birthdays are celebrated, plus a 1963 Echo clipping recalling fall term staff and van drivers.
