On This Day
On this day, the sails were hoisted for the first world travelers, one celebration of film was held for the first time, and the sexes battled. In Minot, a long stalled construction project caught wind and the pigeons flew away, protestant churches were swapping pastors, and there was a bit too much chaos for our local editor.
