Eldora Tales of Classroom Bonds and Oddities

A light collection from Eldora highlights humor and humanity among locals. A single man with Gone With the Wind tickets, a compassionate Eldora woman who calls youths “son,” and a group serenade mishap show everyday kindness and small-town quirks. Others note a Des Moines ticketing oddity, a large Kanawha Roskamp clan, Grinnell students stealing a stop sign moment, and an Oskaloosa man with a rare arthritis condition who finally saw a movie from a theatre rear. Local color and human interest fill the page.
