Fayetteville Town Topics, June 7, 1922

Town Topics

Norwood Tillinghast, who lives next door to the YM.C.A. building, reports that he heard the croak of a bullfrog in the Y.M.C.A. swimming pool this morning. But why worry? Bullfrogs don’t bite.

-=-

Trade with the merchants of Fayetteville is as good as could be expected for this season of the year.

-=-

Parents and guardians are well pleased at the good showing made by the pupils in the city school commencements.

-=-

No more school for awhile. And the deep, cool green of the woods, where the swimming lies beckons the boys to joys that only the young can have.
