Wedding at Eden and social notes from the region
Mr and Mrs Merril Ball attended the wedding of Flora Barrett at Eden Monday evening. Mr and Mrs Phael Linville were at Greenfield Monday. Mrs Gia McLaughlin of Indianapolis and Miss Babb visited Ball's last weekend. The Ball party dined with T. B. Gary Saturday. Aunt Sally Price visited Wm Leir. Local wheat sowing and rain prospects dominate agricultural notes. Arlington business and school changes affect the community. Dry weather and winds hurt the apple crop. A future speaker set is urged to improve bill-distribution efforts. Ripley township reports show a long stretch with no appearance notices for Dudley Foulke, noted as a top speaker.
