Damaged Palmyra Pumping Plant Sparks Water Alert
Palmyra Missouri records a major fire at the city pumping plant at Orth river near the railroad station. The interior and motors were destroyed, building to be remodeled. Water from the city spring is diverted to reservoirs, with boil orders to combat typhoid germs as supply runs low. Superintendent Howard oversees repairs while a National Bank Calf Club sale draws attention. The town mourns Louis Locke aged 77, and three dozen Marion County men depart for Camp Funston amid a large community sendoff.

War and school life clash in chaotic diary entry
A school diary notes 40 days to vacation with exams ahead and playful mischief. It details Blinky Hammond and Short Leg clashing in the cellar, the soot, a mistaken view of the fighters as colored, and town humor about Brigham and Phil Wigglesworth’s dog acting as a soldier substitute. April 27 recalls wartime discipline and a Barkley incident about rough conduct.
