St Johns Review Prepares For Public Notice and City Happenings

It notes a Portland restaurant between a dentist’s office and a show shop and jokes about Roosevelt Peary and Cook while musing on opera here. It covers an escape plot in Nevada Missouri where a girl aided prisoners and was betrayed, a veteran pedagogue’s memory, and the loss of May Real on Linnton road in a fatal car crash. It ends with remarks on Harriman and the era of power seeking industry.
