The Preston Times reports plans for a fine jewelry store in Preston by G. L. Mann and partner Max Ray of Maquoketa. Mann will not move his entire crew to Preston but a competent jeweler will operate locally. The town, recently without a jeweler since Mr. Runkel's passing, is set to gain one of the region’s best institutions once remodeling and stock installations are complete. Deputy Sheriff Butler VenDrke and two service men, Barile Luce and Geo Kisbus, were paroled from Marion after a Board of Parole review. The youths, 21 and from New York, faced parole conditions with Marion as the parole support, aiming for eventual pardon if rules are followed for a year. The American Legion Post urged clemency, noting service in uniform is not a license to crime.
