Elgin social notes hint at dances and town news

Notables include W Thompson of Cedar Rapids visiting Iowa Commandry members, plans for Chas Monnahan’s auto livery, Beet sugar factory closure at Waverly, bank land transfers on March first, and a health scare as Mrs. Kohler recovers from neuralgia with Mrs. Nicklaus updating interior work.
