Many of the articles still remain in
the windows and vast interest
attaches to them for each bears its
history and one may we'll spend an
hour looking them over and getting
new ideas of the way things were In
the old times. To US the most in.
teresting article displayed is the last
issue OF the "New Ulm Pionier," that
came out before the Massacre. The
