Who’s to Say There’s Nothing to Do in a Small Town

The July 15, 1948 paper reported the sighting of a car with Hawaii license plates in town.  It created enough attention for the newspaper to send someone to talk to the car’s owners.  I remember when you could tell if an Alberta car was from out of town, just by the license plate numbers.
