GEORGE BROWN REALIZES GOOD SUM , Marking another step towards the first Grey County Memorial, about thirty representatives of veterans‘ organizations throughout the county, the Grey County Council, and Owen Sound Council gathered in the court room, Owen Sound to discuss this worthy proposition, and to organize thoroughly, a campaign for its conâ€" etruction. The gathering was finely representatve of the entire county, and the general tenor of proceedings bespoke real success for the project under way. The need for such a County Peace Memo:ial has long been recognized, and a short time ago, through the efforts of Col. T. J. Rutherford, the idea was broached to the City Counâ€" cil and the County Council, both of which bodies voted $2,500 towards the building of it. ‘The balance is to be raised by publicsubscription, and the beight of the structure is directiy dependent upon the amount subscribâ€" ed. It is planned to build it of sufficiâ€" ent beicht that the revolving light vpcn its summit will be visible over the entire County of Grey. it is stressed that the memorial is a county undertaking, and in no way intended to take the place of any other memorial of the kind either in Owen Sound or in the county. At the pesent time, Mr. John Mcâ€" Failand, son of Col. G. F. MceFarland of Toronto, who is a student archiâ€" tect, is working on plans _ which he will submit later. All the materials us¢d _ will be from within the county, and work, as far as is posâ€" sible, will be done by Grey County workmen. After careful consideration, it was decided that the names inscribed would be those of the men from Grey County who were buried outâ€" side cf Canada. There was some disâ€" cussion as to just where the deadâ€" line would be drawn and the matter was talked over very carefully be fore the final decision. The general committee will be made up of the following with each ccmmittee empowered to name others to it. Grey County Council â€"Warden Howard McAulay, Austin Ball, Willl-‘ am 8. Hunter, J. A.
