Drought Broken by Fine Rain Sweeps Southwest
A heavy rain Monday night broke drought across the Southwest and reached Kansas City, easing crop fears. The storm arrived with a gentle start at seven, intensified to downpour by nine, then persisted in light, steady showers beyond midnight, bringing relief after months of dryness. Local secretary Mrs. J. D. Plummer reported no major damage anticipated despite the weather easing. Presently, over 500 game tickets were sold for the upcoming Chautauqua season, though Bartell circnt engagements were canceled due to financial issues.
