Sheridan society notes recount visits and dinners among Thistlethwaite, Goodnight, Underwood, Drake, Hames, Burrows, and other area families. The column lists countless Sunday and weekday calls, dinners, and overnight stays across local homes, with occasional travel to Indianapolis, Noblesville, and Carmel. Amateur notices include sales, meetings, church activities, and minor classifieds.
A mix of notices and sales items lists for sale white Plymouths and carnations worn nationwide for McKinley Day. The Carnation League of America popularized the day with carnations and color signs while local churches announce meetings and sermons led by Miss Elia Scott.
A 2 acre property in Sheridan is offered for sale if sold by February 25. It includes a 6 room house, a barn, a combined wash and warm house, 3 wells, abundant fruit, and a brick street corner lot at Tenth and Georgia streets.
Walter Ratliff of Wayne county reports Indiana suffered an unprecedented drop in all plum crops in the past year. He notes an almost total plum crop failure for five years and cold early budding ruined much of the fruit harvest. A real estate bargain is offered: 80 acres at $90 per acre if sold within five days.
