When you and I were young...

1924

Homewood Park near Wynot has a Fourth of July celebration scheduled 
this year which is the largest ever planned by manager Louis Hoese.  
The big feature of the day will be a wrestling match between "Farmer" 
Saylor of Hartington and Jack Norris of Omaha, with Joe Stecher, former 
world's champion heavyweight wrestler, refereeing the match.  Other 
features of the day include an exhibition military drill put on by the 
members of Company F, the first public appearance this organization has 
made for some time.  There will also be a fast baseball game between 
the Wynot and Gayville, S.D., teams.  B. Ready of Hartington will give 
the address of the day.  There will also be the other regular attractions 
of the park, which include boating, picnicking, swimming, and dancing in 
the evening, besides a big fireworks display.
------Deaths:  Mrs. P.E. Olson, Hartington; O.K. Booth, 84, Randolph veteran.
