R.G. Shaw's Shaving Parlors Oxbow, Sask.
(Good For One Shave)

Robert (Bob) Shaw arrived in Oxbow in 1898, from Omemee, Ontario. He worked as a farmer for some time, but gave up farming to become a barber. His first small frame shop was destroyed by fire. He then built a two-storey building co ntaining the barber shop and living quarters. This was destroyed in the big fire which wiped out the business area in Oxbow. Later he built a two-storey brick building containing barber shop and pool hall, with the top floor being a hall which could be rented for dances or other entertainment. This building remains today across from the Alexandra Hotel on Main Street. In 1914 Arthur Smith traded his farm to Robert Shaw for the King Edward Barber Shop Block in Oxbow. He operated the Barber Shop and Pool Room for a short while before leasing it to Henry Wiik.

[Green token color, Gold lettering]

Parkland Kinsmen Club:
Clayton Smith who was working for a grain company in Mossbank, Saskatchewan, became involved with Kinsmen.
In 1977 Clayton, who was transferring back to the Parkbeg area, was approached by a K-40 Kinsmen from Mossbank in regards to the possiblity of chartering a Kinsmen Club at Parkbeg. In the winter of 1979 the deputy governor for Zone 4 and the Mossbank Kinsmen Club contacted Clayton to organize an information meeting for prospective Kinsmen members. Out of this meeting we found three former Kinsmen, Len Mason, Ray Wiman, and Bill Doucet. After three of these meetings, enough interest was shown to form a club.
A name for the club was chosen during these meetings, and it was decided to name the club Parkland - the Park from Parkbeg and the land from Wheatlands Municipality.
Charter Night for Parkland Kinsmen and Kinettes was March 31, 1979 at Parkbeg Hall.

This token contains a typo - The town name is Parkbeg, not Parkberg.
