Local notices mix with visits around Kackley area events
A long column lists numerous visits and gatherings around Kackley and surrounding towns. Families including the McGregors Davis and Johnsons socialize with Ed Thomas, Ellen Johnson, Sibyl Larson, and many others in Concordia, Abilene, and McPherson areas. The piece mentions travel to South Dakota and New York and notes Paris at the 1937 World’s Fair. Subscriptions and a light joke about Azores close the item.
