Judge it!
I was thrilled to read "Childhood Remembrances" by Josephine Pagliai as I, too, remember many of these stories of Boxtown. My Mother Mary Corieri Janovick told me these same stories and I remember visiting with my Aunt and Uncle - Teresa and Pete Bimbi and their two sons Roland and Leo and also visitng with my Mother many of the people that lived in boxtown - the Milani's. Righi's, Ugulini's and so many more. What a wonderful story. Thank you for printing this and refreshing many memories, both good and bad.
Thank you again. Jackie

Life was big in small-town Iowa
Full story: Des Moines Register
Imagine the late 1930s in Madrid, Iowa, a small town of about 1,200 souls. It's a coal mining town.

Daily Horoscope for December 12
Aries
You're in a very talkative frame of mind and will enjoy regaling everyone with your opinions on all sorts of subjects. But make sure you're being interesting, and do your best to avoid being boring or not knowing when to shut up. If you're taking off on a journey or trip today, make absolutely certain that you've got everything you need before you set out. Otherwise you might discover that you've left something vital at home, which will be very annoying.
