HONOUR BOARD UNVEILED

 

At the Church of Christ, Newmarket, a handsome cedar honour board has been unveiled by Mrs. Aspinall, a member of the Church, who has three sons on service. The board bears the names of 28 young men connected with the church. A friend presented flags and fittings, while the board was provided by the congregation.
