Dillon and Beaverhead in 1927 Celebrate Christmas and Close Year
The 1927 timeline notes Christmas programs across churches and school breaks, college sports with Ione Kelsey heading honor roll, and Shriners, Legion officers, and church events. A night cop was added in Dillon, Catholic parishioners set a record, tax collections reached 260 833 dollars with 291 delinquencies, and local sports saw the Beavers beat Dubois 25 5. The week closed with health report of no epidemics and notable deaths.
