The Monday, Feb. 23, 1914, and Tuesday, Feb. 23, 1914, issues of The Sedalia Democrat primarily reported events around the town.
The Sedalia Booster Club, which had been encouraging people to patronize Sedalia merchants and buy products made in Sedalia, was to meet that night to plan the 10th anniversary celebration of the Missouri Pacific Railroad shops.
