O W Catlin, state representative of the Baptist Record, is among the busiest men as the paper gains about one hundred new subscribers each month. The Chronicle clarifies it bought only the Banner subscription list, credits prepaid Banner subscribers, and handles arrears on the Chronicle books. A proposed official county language paper was discussed with the Weekblad petition and J L Warren urging action. Ballengee Concert Band debuted with weekly concerts at the opera house, ten cent admission, and plans to vary programs each week. The venue will be heated and welcoming for the musical group in Pella.
