Old Home Town – 100 years ago

From the Lawrence Daily World for Sept. 120, 1908: “It seems every train brings in new students for Haskell Institute, which already is crowded and is due to be more so. Many students indicate they are only awaiting trains to bring them here and officials are trying to make the best use of already cramped quarters. : The hunting season is on and ducks are reportedly flocking in record numbers to the salt marshes near Hutchinson. Local hunters are reporting good luck.”
