Old home town – 100 years ago today

From the Lawrence Daily World for Jan. 1, 1906: “The new year will bring many changes in rural mail delivery in the area and there are sure to be some who do not like it. The post office says the reorganization is necessary. : There have been several attempts at local business burglaries over the New Year period but so far none seems to have been successful. : The World extends its best wishes to its patrons and friends, wishing them all a happy New Year. The past year has brought a multitude of blessings to us and the community. “
