It's still a really busy time around our household, so I'm gonna keep today's news short. Here are a few items from the 19 March 1924 Altoona Tribune: Wrecker Called Out The Altoona wrecker was called to Warrens Tuesday morning, when a journal broke on a box car which was part of an extra freight train going to Adams. The Altoona wreck whistle blew just a few minutes after 8 o'clock a.m. The damage at the wreck was slight. Charles, "Coonie", Heaslette was conductor on the extra freight. St. Patrick Part at St. Mary's is Success A large crowd attended the St. Patrick's card party held at the St. Mary's Church Tuesday evening. The door prize of a half ton of coal was awarded to Mrs. A. J. Turch of St. Paul. Mrs. Mary Willman received the quilt that was given by the St. Mary's Ladies. The women's prizes in 500 were awarded to Mrs. Marius Johnson and Mrs. Wm. Kersten, first and second prizes respectively. Father Schulte was given the men's first prize in 500. Mrs. Wm. Bellesbach received the woman's first prize in bridge, with Mrs. H. Stark receiving second. Chas. Keller, Jr. of Eau Claire recieved first prize in bridge for the men and Frank Neururer second. At the close of the party refreshments were served. Mr. and Mrs. Leon Wright, now residing on 3rd St. West, plan to move into the Louie Peterson residence on Hayden Avenue the first of April. ++++++++++ Temperatures are supposed to get up into the mid-50's here in the northwoods today. The sun is gonna be shining (once it gets up, anyway!) and it looks like a prime day to get out there and SHOP! Whatever you're doing today, I hope you have a wonderful day! -- Nance
