June’s living poem births sunshine on the town
The column mixes verse with town notes. A mad dog shot in the east part. A boy pockets bananas from D. L. Clippinger’s store and pays no price. A wedding of Mr. B. F. Heath and Miss Pearl Bair at the bride’s home. A grocery burglary on Shannon Street. A runaway team disrupts Main Street toward First National bank. Mrs. Wesley Cox dies in Jeffersonville after apoplexy. An exchange cites people needing religion. Ohio City tests oil and gas. Well No. 1 yields gas, no oil, with salt water hints. Two more wells planned to supply cheap fuel.
