The Rathmel market in Crawfordsville held a grand opening after weeks of operation. They bought the building and remodeled it, adding groceries and locker service. A free lunch started at 10 a m with help from Mrs. Hattie Cherryholmes. A free basket of groceries each Saturday night is promised. Rathmel and family occupy the upstairs, with Art Rathmel assisting. Additional notes include visits from relatives, illness updates on Mrs. Eben Davis and Mrs. Nettie Strain, and a church choir outing to Washington. Emmet Ross returns to school after mumps.
