Alma and local notices reflect community events
Alma residents saw wartime news with missing in action status updated to wounded. Local social items include visits by Mrs. Vinning and Miss Carlton, a teachers' dance, and an Alma Fire Department roof blaze none significant. Announcements cover lodge meetings, ice cream specials, school superintendent to Chicago, and a firemen’s ball at the Masonic home. Transportation and civic actions include road opening plans and a city council legal matter involving local officers.
