Original Toronto Star caption: Uxbridge waves the flags - it's 100. Three-year-old Tracy Cummings leads the flag-waving from the shoulders of Mary Jane Gouweleeuw yesterday as Uxbridge began its centennial celebrations. The crowd was part of a whistle-stop train procession from Uxbridge ato Stouffville, Markham, Agincourt and finally Toronto. Uxbridge, which was incorporated on June 5, 1872, will continue the centennial celebrations for the next 10 days.
