Old home town – 100 years ago today

From the Lawrence Daily World for May 28, 1906: “There are more grim forecasts from Dr. Snow at KU about prospects for a bad drought here this year. He says a ‘cycle’ is upon us and sees little chance of breaking it. : KU is planning its last vesper service of the year. Lawrence High had a great attendance for its last play of the year and many praised the young performers. : Kansas has issued a call for wheat harvest hands but the wages are not likely to be as good this year, we are told.”
