Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
The Telephone Pole
That Became
a Memorial
The cottage on Lincoln Street in
Portland, Oregon, is shaded by graceful
trees and covered with ivy.
Many years ago A. H. Feldman and
his wife remodeled the house to fit their
dreams…and set out slips of ivy around
it. And when their son, Danny came
along, he too, like to watch things
grow. One day, when he was only nine,
he took handful of ivy slips and planted
them at the base of the telephone pole
in front of the house.
Time passed…and the ivy grew,
climbing to the top of the pole. Like the
ivy, Danny grew too. He finished high
school, went to college. The war came
along before he finished-and Danny
joined the Army and went overseas.
There he gave his life for his country.
Not very long ago the overhead tele-
phone lines were being removed from the
poles on Lincoln Street. The ivy-covered
telephone pole in front of the Feldman
home was about to be taken down.
But, when the telephone crew arrived,
Mrs. Feldman came out to meet
them. “Couldn’t it be left standing?”
she asked. And then she told them about
here son.
So the pole wasn't touched at all. And
there it is today, mantled in ivy, a living
memorial to Sergeant Danny Feldman.
