A Look Back in Time: Jan. 1, 1916

January 4, 2016

Visitors in Sheridan today include Bert L. Dow of Big Horn, Mr. and Mrs. S.W. Sheeley of Parkman, and Mr. and Mrs. V.W. Johnson, who came in from their ranch near Clearmont.

The outlook for 1916 in the Sheridan country is generally regarded with a great deal of optimism. A number of conditions have combined to make the year just closed one of the most prosperous in the history of the country. The banks closed the year with over a half million dollars more on deposit than a year ago.

Details of a plan for converting the City Hall park into a skating rink for the remainder of the winter will be worked out by the high school early in the coming week.
