Delpha, old smartie, I never thought to look in the front of the book.

I found buying a roll of the film was the way to go on some these
newspapers.
I had someone buy a roll for me of Calico Rock Progress a few weeks ago.
Just have to take it to the library that has a reader. Lucky the library in
Mt Home has a reader-printer.

The library now has Baxter Bulletin from 1901 to 1997 (I think) There is no
index after 1949. If you have a month and year it is rather easy to find an
obituary.
