Local Items Mixed With War News From Renwick and Nearby
A column from Renwick and nearby communities covers social visits, illness and deaths, farm notices, and wartime commentary. It notes Mrs Harli Gardner in Webster City, Kyra Henry Geigel to Waterloo for her father’s illness, and the death of Emma Lierman from influenza and pneumonia. It reports a veteran’s telegram from Lieut Glenn Southwick and totals on wartime costs and bonds, plus local curiosities and street gossip in a brisk small-town tone.
