Bald Heads Not Wanted at Hartford City Republican Convention
The Blackford county Republicans met in Hartford City last Monday to nominate candidates for the coming campaign. H. N. Hopping was chosen permanent chairman and the ticket was nominated by acclamation, including Willis B. Redding for county clerk and others in Licking, Jackson, Washington townships. The article notes baldness as a social stigma and pivots to an advertisement for Rexall 93 Hair Tone from the B&M Pharmacy of Montpelier, offering a risk-free trial and money-back guarantee. It also relays a Burma bull racing anecdote and a remark on boxing in Burman sports.
