As taken from the files of the Reporter, January, 1943
-- Francis (Sass) McNally became manager of the Council Oak store here Monday of this week, succeeding C. W. (Woody) Cook, who left Wednesday with a selective contingent from Algona for Army examination and induction at Camp Dodge.
-- George Varcoe, Petty Officer second class in the United States Navy, and Mrs. Varcoe arrived here Wednesday from Washington, DC, where the former had been attending a bomb disposal school. They will visit local relatives for about a week, after which Mr. Varcoe will be sent to the San Francisco, California bay area.
