Harvey, Wells F. (1958) 
 

Wells F. Harvey, former Editor of The Clark County Press, and Mrs. Harvey last Friday morning severed an association of two decades with Clark County. 
 

With their automobile piled full to overflowing, they headed for Florida, intending to remain there through the rest of the winter.  Their plans beyond that are indefinite, but include travel within the United States. 
 

As his last official act, Mr. Harvey was personally responsible for the most recent New Year edition of The Clark County Press, which was a prodigious effort and a valuable summary of 1957 in Clark County.  He gathered the material and wrote most of the news and editorial content of that edition.  He wrote and sold the advertising which sparkled on its pages, and he took the pictures which added much to the color and interest. 
 

The Harveys have stored most of their furniture in their home at Hewett and West Fourth Street, which has been purchased by their son, Robert Harvey, present editor of The Press, and his family. They moved in last Friday, starting just as the older folks loaded their last load and took off on the highways to the south. 
 

To mark the weekend more completely as a "moving days" for The Press, Milton J. Tock, shop foreman of The Press, and his family moved into the Robert Harvey home at 205 Oak Street, which they have purchased. 
 

So if the newspaper doesn’t sparkle with its customary luster this week, it’s because everybody’s so sore and stiff we don’t feel like sparkling.
