MARCH
17, 1965: Deep River's main entrance, Deep River Road and Highway 17,
is to be beautified this spring as the municipality and the

land will be levelled, flower bed mounds will be shaped, soil and
fertilizer added, and preparations for grassing and flower bedding
completed. Water and electrical outlets are planned for both sides of
the entrance.
