A scattered column from the era notes gasoline pricing at Finke’s drug store, requests return of wire stretchers, scattered quips about ice cream and ice cold topics, and local events. It reports on a saddle horse accident near Thoma Bros, corn field woes from snow and cold, a $200 horse sale, telephones on trains, and the Fayette County Teachers’ institute slated for West Union August 23 to 27 with the rural school commencement set for May 14 alongside the county high school meet.
