Local notices mix with political chatter in Wisconsin town
A busy roundup of public bids, speeches, sales, and social events fills the page. Rollo Branch preaches Nusonville at 3:06 pm next Sunday while a Republican speech features Hon. H. Pink in German. Items include room rentals, campaign buttons, fashion ads, a card party for Miss Bertha Reiley, and local business notices from Luemis and Ford’s jewelry. A sparring match set for Oct 30, and a death from diphtheria alongside a tied team incident anchor a broad, anecdotal local scene. More society notes cover theaterlike gallery use, wall paper, and committee announcements for registration wards.
