Herald readers are invited to read the new serial story Pieces of Eight by Richard LeGallienne. The piece is described as plainly told and entertaining, though not of fine writing, winding through curious situations without pretense.
A period of electricity curtailment disrupted business and home life, prompting reflections on reliance on power. The piece notes lights failing, kitchens and shops idle, and daily routines halted until restoration. It also includes reminiscences about local figures and community notices from Polk County Oregon.
A string of Monmouth Heights and Monmouth residents visited salons, farms, and family homes Wednesday and Monday. Notable names include Dick Lefever, George Heck, Paul Riley, Fd Rogers, the Fishbacks, Golda Egleston, Noah Heifley, and M. M. Jones funeral attendees with W A Fishback and Pearl Fishback among those mentioned.
