Local Happenings At Alma And Crystal Lake This Week
West Parr and Ray Smith visited Crystal Lake with families, Frank West returned from the north, and many Alma residents toured towns or attended social events. A large Band Concert drew a big crowd while a frost north of Ewell was reported. The 1910 census put Grand Rapids at 112 571, and Rev Cook baptized five at the Baptist church. Local sports saw Davis field host a 18 to 1 game for the north side, and several residents traveled to Detroit and Chicago. Several obituaries, births, and birthdays were noted among Alma residents and surrounding communities. The West Michigan State Fair was announced for September in Grand Rapids.
