Description | Preparations for planting an avenue of honor in the streets of Hexham are making good progress. It is intended to make a start this year by planting from the hotel corner and extending up past the school a row of pepper trees and Cootamundra -wattles alternately. Next year the planting will be continued till a tree has been planted for every soldier who has volunteered from this district. The matter is being taken up very enthusiastically.
Friday June 20 was observed as Arbor Day in Hexham, when 20 more trees were planted in the streets, as a continuation of the Avenue of Honor commenced last year. At a later date it is intended to place name plates on each tree-guards in memory of the soldiers who enlisted from this district.
