Sandridge and Lanark Families Enjoy Picnic at Sand Slough
The Sandridge George Miller family and relatives from Shannon and Lanark, plus a Maryland cousin, enjoyed a picnic at Sand Slough Sunday. Wilt Phillips wife and two daughters visited Mrs. Rupple on Monday. The upper bottome hay farmers fear this may be their last year due to planned drainage and dyking. Melon season is in full swing with George McGinnis boasting fine mushmelons. Mrs Nancy French, the oldest resident of Carroll County in northwestern Illinois, will attend the Old Settlers picnic at Lanark Thursday and a car will carry her there Wednesday evening where she will be welcomed and chair presented. Route 41 mail carrier takes annual vacation. A carload of limestone is being applied at the Wm Mitchell farm. Ray Rupple sold his melon patch to Maurice Kipnis.
