WILLIAM RENWICK, 19-26b TOWN CLERK, (Continued from Page Seven) pany from the hit Broadway Show "Golden Boy" provided fantastic entertainment and some laughs with their "Don't Forget 127th Street", from the production about a Harlem youth who becomes a famous prize fighter. Here, this Ne- gro section of New York City, is described as ... "classy - we've got rats as big as Lassie!" But the only laughs that come from Harlem, are apparently all in the show, for it is no picnic to be a part of the place, according to interviews conducted for the documentary series "The Sixties" last Mon- day evening. " The Hell That's Harlem" perhaps brought us un- comfortably close to the nearly quarter -million people who live in the three -square -mile rat -infested area in Upper Man- hattan. Maybe with the new Haryou project for the youth of Harlem though, some of the nightmare in their lives can be abolished. The highlight of CTV-13's viewing this weei< is Thursday Margaret Edgar Buried Here WROXETER-Friends were shocked to learn of the sudden passing of Margaret Agnes Ed- gar last Wednesday in Humber Memorial Hospital, Toronto. Miss Edgar was a registered nurse. She trained and nursed for some time at the Bruce County Hospital, Walkerton, and was then on the staff of Wingham Hospital for a few years. At the time of her death she was nursing at the Compen- sation Hospital at Downsview. Miss Edgar, 48, was the last sun iving member of a family of four children of the late Ilugh Edgar and Susan McLeod. She is survived by a sister-in- law, Mrs. Murdock Edgar of Brussels. The funeral was held from the itann funeral home in Brus- sels on Saturday. Rev, Allan Johnston officiated. Interment was in Wroxeter Cemetery. Pallbearers were four ne- phews.

It was known as Vulgar Latin and is the source from which the Ro- mance languages (chiefly French, Italian, Portugese, Ru- manian and Spanish) developed, 'amu '. ."..r"4+,.w0.u4F1r.r411SP.M1.1.1i0111..0.w1.1.r...'r".ys001.rY'r40.1r*(mt SPECIALS AT BONDI'S FRUIT STORE BANANAS 2 LBS. 25` CALIFORNIA GRAPES 2, LBS. 25 • MUSHROOMS WH E LB. 44` BROILER CHICKENS 3 -LB.
