Long faces on the corners and a new baby at L. M. Jackson's mark a busy Bethel period. Albert Leonard and wife visited the Wickerhams. Auglaize Grangers held a lively fair. Some locals hint prohibition support, others plan to Kansas where it is already law. The village flock debates sermons, fences, hogs in the yard, and pathmaster duties amid a fading faith.
