The Port Perry Chamber of Commerce is such a body of business men. As part of their promotional efforts, Port Perry this year will have bright new Christmas street lights to a cost to the merchants of $1,600. Another promotional idea is the supplement which Bill Harrison, editor of the Star is perusing in the above picture. This is a combined effort on part of the merchants - and the Star and will be circulated as a supplement to this week's issue and dis. tributed to every home in Port Perry and outlying areas. ~--Star Photo
