Miss Marguerite Bayless Rescued From Ice on Mill Pond
Miss Marguerite Bayless broke through an air hole in the mill pond on Saturday. Her jarma kept her from sinking and two nearby boy scouts pulled her out. She suffered only a cold bath and was none the worse for the incident. Koehn and Dinan closed their anteon business after eighteen years. They plan to remain in Bikader for a while. Frightful polar winds blister exposed skin, but Bucklen’s Arnica Salve can heal and soften lips and hands. It is sold for 25 cents at The City Drug Store.
