Mexico adopts library remodel plan after removal
The Mexico Audrain County Library project was dropped, with the library board president Charles R. Stribling III stating the current joint library group will take over and remodel the building. The First Baptist Church held a parade to Hardin Park for its annual picnic for 300 Bible school workers and pupils.
