The feminine business spirit of Suttons Bay, has also made itself manifest in the personages of Mrs. F. F. Smith who conducts a grocery and dry goods store. Miss Emma Otto, has also demonstrated that the millinery business can be made most successful here and has a millinery parlor that looks very fascinating and enchanting to the fair sex.

Yes, it is a slow, slow, slow news day. Head back 100 years with the Grand Traverse Herald.
