GOOD
NEIGHBORS
From
the "New
Holland Pictorial History: 1875 – 2000"
Floods,
fires and storms strike New Holland
[SEPT.
30, 2000]
The
village of New Holland, like other communities, has had its share of natural
disasters over the years. A sleet storm in 1924 downed many trees. In 1931 a
heavy snowstorm made travel impossible. Another heavy snow in 1960 canceled
school and ballgames. In 1972 and 1978, ice storms cut off power and phone
service.

STILL
WATERS
The
Olympics: What makes us cry?
And
how does it bode well for Logan County?
By
Sam Redding
[SEPT.
30, 2000] Let’s
analyze that rivulet of salty water that tends to retrace its path down your
cheeks each time you watch an Olympic event. Follow it to its source in your
