Dale Mill bridge washed away by Maquoketa flood in Scotch Grove
High water on the Maquoketa river Monday night caused the Dale Mill bridge at Scotch Grove to collapse. The bridge, about 45 years old, had previous repairs in 1925 and linked Monticello to Cascade and Dubuque areas. A smaller parallel bridge and a nearby road were also washed out. The water level dropped by morning from around eight feet to four. Oak Drive Community Club noted multiple narrow escapes and discussed club activities and 4-H demonstrations at upcoming fairs.

Prayer for a Faithful Master by a Dog
A dog bids a faithful master to be open and true to trust, sharing a hopeful oath of loyalty. It asks for patience and watchfulness, courage, and self sacrifice, hoping the master remains youthful and playful, as the speaker dog remains devoted. The piece ends with an advertisement note about dog health and comfort products.
