75 Years Ago

Herald of Oct. 27, 1949

Martinsburg’s efforts for community improvement moved forward this week when more than 100 Oriental Plane trees were planted.

A very impressive service was held at New Enterprise on Sunday afternoon, Oct. 23, when the congregation of the Church of the Brethren laid the cornerstone for their new house of worship, construction of which has been in progress for some time.

Letters explaining the purpose of “Career Day” and forms listing more than 50 occupations will be submitted to juniors and seniors at the Morrison Cove and Martinsburg High School next week.

Morrisons Cove’s woods and fields are expected to echo with shooting as Pennsylvania’s small game season opens at 9 a.m., Tuesday.

The rain Tuesday was a welcome relief as the ground was very dry and the water much needed.

Mr. and Mrs. Wilford Hann and son Harold of Roaring Spring, were recent visitors in the Wareham home.
