Pierz Journal 'filler' articles ☺of interest

 Every newspaper needs to fill space now and then with PSAs or interesting ephemera, or, like the last two articles below, a little nod to local problems.
In fact, I'm including them cuz they're just that: one about the divide between north and south Pierz, and the other about Faust bad luck with rained-out dances.  (Evidently, a 'bowery dance' meant it was held outdoors.  Now you know).


This clip explains the little white gravestones in local cemeteries...




...and this one, from 
January 3rd, 1911
lists a few statistics about 
the 1910 census.



A couple of
interesting "didja know" clips.  Oooo, I really like stuff like this ☺.


Sheesh--the captions on these are all different.  Consistency isn't a strong suit here.
