Here's a collection of articles from local-ish papers between 1900 and 1921. They're a reminder about how MUCH was changing in those years--from the church's opinion about suffrage to electricity, to miracle cures, to population...
...for instance, did you know that the Cold Spring dam was dynamited in 1921, a result of an evidently ongoing dispute? Or that a mention of great uncle John Hesch going to seek relief for his rheumatism in Wisconsin was likely to see "the Bone Setter"? Cool.
