Editorial on Old Settlers group and postwar labor shifts
The piece links revived local Old Settlers memory work to regional history, notes a rival group’s activity, and recalls the Tri-County Old Settlers tradition. It then shifts to wartime labor forecasts, meatless days, and concerns about demobilization, meat supply, and government policy. It closes with reflections on politics and leadership in the postwar era.

Following the Leader in a Strange Hotel and Road Trip
The narrator recounts a chaotic journey with odd lodging and plumbing failures. A packed travelogue describes a 20e24 foot apartment with locked doors, a faulty lavatory, and a cramped bath area. A Nebraska stop yields an unusually long fried dish at a small restaurant, followed by humorous travel misadventures and reflections on travel quirks.
