Fourth of July War Effort Ties Williston to Liberty Spirit
Correspondence from Ring Coulee details a Fourth of July event with a nail-pointed board and a wounded foot, but domestic thrift stamps and Red Cross donations defined the day. Williston High School Professor Blume delivered an Oration praised as cyclone in tone, while Mr. Palmer urged thrift stamps to support war and democracy. The event drew praise, with generous local giving totaling about $350, and the crowd lingered at the counter as the colored community’s group energy closed the gathering.
