Night theft at Cedar Rapids Union Depot
Wednesday night J H Lundburg of Blairtown slept at the Cedar Rapids Union depot when the cap was stolen from his head. The column notes that Pars. has more women workers than men, with Bs representing women among city laborers. It mentions Trause as having one woman for every two men and observes country girls waving handkerchiefs at trains as reckless fun. A cold spell reduces some workers’ pay, while others keep busy with barns and auto catalogs.
