Memorial Flagpole to honor Great War boys planned for Decoration Day
A committee voted last Friday to erect a flagpole with a cement base beside the city park, seventy feet tall steel pole, ready for dedication on Decoration Day. The project includes an excavated base and marble like base material. Philip Boyce, son of Rev. and Mrs. J C Boyce, lost the first two joints of a finger after his hand was caught in a journal press cog. He was treated at Concordia hospital. The piece notes the need for supervision around machinery.
