Fog and travel peril mix with local harvest chatter
Fog blankets the region as motorists report delays on clogged roads near Flat Top while travelers head to Bluefield for Beaver High's defeat by Woodrow Wilson. The narrative notes hunting fever in Pocahontas County, a report of a lost party, and quirks like Arctic tundra in the land. It also highlights Apple king Harry W. Miller's 150,000 bushel harvest and calls for cooperative dairying in Raleigh County. Calendar gifts arrive as 1936 approaches, with calendars from A. J. Britton and the Keyser Funeral Home.
