Millnerville Mention Highlights Local Happenings
Special Correspondence catalogs a flood of rural activity from Millnerville. Ray Lawrence sold tee tools to dance pavilion operators, farmers harvested ice from Sioux River, and Clyde James marketed hogs in Sioux City. Milners chased straw on slippery roads while other residents sold cattle, visited Sioux City, drafted neighbors, or planned thrift drives and postwar efforts. A baby died, a hog sale drew crowds, and schooling and civic events filled the week with notes on births, travel to Ames, and community updates.
