Local notes depict a busy March week at Sparland
Miss Josie Lynch improves as work resumes at the shaft on Wednesday. Several locals, including J R Bouton in Peoria and George A Burt of Henry, were noted in town or travel. The shaft remains shut, spring planting begins, and a death in the Philippines prompts sympathy. Easter cantata by the Epworth League and various visits fill the week.
