Town News Highlights Include Visits and Local Movements
Long list of social visits and arrivals across the area. Notable items include Mrs. Mary Burner visiting Mrs. Georgia Tuley, Dick Shuler visiting relatives in Mishawaka, and many families hosting guests from Chicago, Brooklyn, Delphi, and Peoria. Transport and farm updates reveal Koontz brothers buying a Rumely tractor, Dallas Sarver selling his farm to John Onokoninski, and G. C. Hamilton leaving the local barber shop for work in Gary. A weather note credits the paper for prompting rain, and a moralistic retrospective discusses old railings and social shames with modern terms.
