Glancing Back Through Wisconsin Histories
A compilation of past dates recounts Farm City night uniting rural and urban residents, a fatal cycle-car crash, promotions in Green County, officers elected for the Women's Major League Keglers, and military rites for Sgt. Wilbert Block. It also notes daylight saving debates in Freeport, sheriff candidates in Lafayette County, and 1922 school building progress in Green County with an evangelist sermon and Kiwanis speaker. The 1912 Monroe Boy Scouts form a baseball team, the Twilight Club’s sociable group forms, and 1902 regional railroad inducements hint at future lines toward Green Bay, plus a Quo Vadis performance and potato seed treatment guidance.
