Playground Renovated
Steps are being taken by a group of citizens to repair and improve the children’s playground back of the Postoffice in Washington. Charles Scroggins has volunteered his services for work to be done.

Anyone wishing to donate in any amount to this worthwhile project may do so to Mrs. Emily Miller who has agreed to act as treasurer.
