From the Lawrence Daily World for April 1, 1907: “Failing to obtain new wage scales, all brewery workers in St. Louis went on strike yesterday. Nobody knows how long it might last but it has gained considerable attention throughout the region. : University Vesper Services are a highlight for many for the Easter and Christmas seasons and this year’s Easter program is expected to be outstanding, attended by many townspeople. : A magnificent two-story buff brick Eagle’s Nest will be built this summer for the local aerie on the corner of New Hampshire and Warren. W.T. Wellman is the architect. It is due to be one of the most attractive structures ever built here, 48 by 88 feet in size with two stories and a basement. : A mass meeting resulted in calls by the Lawrence Committee to assemble and discuss a new county fair for this fall, similar to the major fairs that once were so popular here. Many believe a new fair could be a major success for the community. : We hope all will vote on April 2 in support of the $40,000 bond issue to expand the high school and set up badly needed manual training facilities.”
