Memorial Day marked with speech at Opera House
Memorial Day exercises ran Monday after rain delayed events. L. J. Dickinson gave one of the best local speeches, urging diplomacy and disarmament, while the Algona band led a cemetery procession. Several residents arrived for visits, and upcoming big motorcycle races are planned at the fairgrounds on July 3 with substantial purses and a pursuit race.

A retrospective glimpse reports Chris Heise’s shop refreshed by a pro, farm purchases by D Hayes, and crop conditions described as superb. Capt Cook and Lieut Creek travel to Chicago for military studies, a new bridge plan near the fairgrounds advances, memorial day speech by B F Reed praised, and local residents engaging in renovations, arrivals from Hungary, and travel to Chicago for graduations. Reports note rail disruptions from storms, with July Fourth plans and parade committee lists.
