Flashback Friday ~ October 23, 1918

 Nashville News, Howard County Arkansas


Please obey and save yourself from being embarrassed!


For some reason I cut off the other three orders 

#10 No eating place shall burn food or allow food to be burned- save all scraps for animal consumption or to be reduced for fats.

#11 Part is cut off but I think it is saying don't display food that could deteriorate and not get to be used for human consumption. 

#12 No creme, or double creme de luxe and no cream with over 20% butter to be used. 

Comparing the quarantine we just went through to that of 1918, I'm not really sure the government or we the people handled things better this go round. Just comparing the Spanish Flu Epidemic to the Covid Epidemic, not the war time rules.  (I know that war on top of the epidemic made it especially important to follow the government's guidelines at that time.) 

 What do you think? 


Here's a link to info on victory bread, if you're wondering (like I was) what it is.

My grandson Avry at center. They won that night. but I don't know 
how they can play well when it is 5000 degrees.  Not good fall ball weather!

Monday Murals ~ Town Square Paintings



This mural is located in DeQueen, Arkansas, a few miles from the Oklahoma border. It is bordered with the 5 Seals of the Indian Nation, and depicts a peaceful scene along a river's edge. 


These paintings are on the side of the Chamber of Commerce's building.
