(Oh dear.) Found in a lot of Wakefield-themed papers bought by one of our members many years ago. This little 8-page booklet is loaded with ads from local businesses from F.W. Woolworth and J. J. Newbury to Elk Spring to McKinnon’s Market and Hokie’s Garage, Amico’s Cafeteria and Classen Brothers. (fb)
Happy Flag Day! This photo was taken, of course, on the day on which the Soldiers and Sailors Monument was first dedicated in 1902. Red, white and blue were the order of the day, in part because the Monument’s donor, Harriet Newell Flint loved the American flag so much that she decorated with it! Her nephew, Harvey Evans remembered that her home on Charles Street in Wakefield (the street was named after her husband, Charles Flint) was full of flags — at least one in every room! Although his aunt was famously frugal (a paragon of Yankee thrift!), his aunt always supported patriotic causes. She had donated for the support of wounded and deceased veterans and their families for many years. The original plan for the unveiling of the monument was to actually unveil it from behind giant flags — there were two huge flags that totally covered it. A young woman was supposed to read and patriotic poem, and then the flags would fall dramatically. Unfortunately it was so windy that one of the flags blew down completely before the monument was unveiled, so the unveiling was different — but still special! (At least it didn’t rain that day!) (fb)
