Old Home Town – 100 years ago
From the Lawrence Daily World for March 2, 1907: “The Union Pacific is planning a 30-stall railroad roundhouse in Topeka and that is due to aid travel in this area. : The YMCA boys worked hard to get a summer playing field at Missouri and Henry and are to be commended. : We continue to hear of serious problems by people who mix whisky and coal tar tablets supposedly to kill a cold. Doctors say there is great danger in the practice, no matter how helpful it may seem at first.”
