East Weston (Panther Creek) (20 Feb 1919)

When John Krejci, Frank Kubat, Oscar Northup, Charley Greeler, Clarence Bardell and their wives and John Kelly and family of South York get it in their heads to have a good time, they make us kids feel as though this generation had turned around and the older people were the only ones who have life enough to have a good time anymore. We don’t get much sunshine this cloudy winter and those kind of people believe in making some.

The people of School District No. 6, through the management of Mr. W. Steinhaus, met Wednesday evening, the 12th, and organized their War Savings Club. The program given by the school teacher and Mr. Henderson’s patriotic address, were very much appreciated by all those present.

We have never heard that Bert Dresden had a flying machine and as all of his cars were engaged that night, it may always remain a mystery how he got the speaker out here for us, but – well, he did a good job for us, anyway.
