Banquetted Newspaper Men At Minot Hotel Stag Social
Banquetted newspaper men and Minot Paper Co. hosts held a stag social at the Morrill hotel on Christmas Eve for city printers. About fifty attended with a fine repast and speeches led by Sam Clark on The Printers Union and Why I Love It. Prince Otto spoke on The Value of Sauer Kraut as a Food. Other locals, including Harry Mitchell of the Commercial club and McGovern, attended. Harry Kelley performed a dog dance and the crowd praised the Minot Paper Co. promoters. A note of sadness recalls beer and barley price rises and possible use of Granite Spring water. The Independent editor received a large turkey from Marshall, Missouri.
