Birthday- Purkey, Earl The young people gave Earl Purkey a very pleasant surprise Friday evening, it being Earl's sixteenth birthday. There was quite a number present all reporting a fine time.
[Note: either handwritten newspaper date is incorrect or info on ancestry.com is incorrect. It says born in 1900, but if it was his sixteenth birthday, he would have been born in 1898. The 1920 census lists him as 20 years of age.]
