Sidney notices bustle with shops and Lone Star life
A crowded Sidney column advertises millinery at Shirley Sisters and Thoelocke's, clothing and gear at Star and Oberfelder, restaurant and hotel activity, horse racing and drives, upcoming Fourth of July events, new professionals, and local business openings.
