County school buses are back on the roads again picking up students. Area drivers are reminded to use caution during the school year and to obey the Michigan bus laws, which prohibit drivers from passing a school bus that is stopped and has its red lights flashing. Drivers must stop at least 20 feet away and cannot resume driving until the bus lights are turned off or the bus begins moving. Stop-arm cameras record drivers who unlawfully pass.

Two Village of Daggett street scenes display the Andrew Weng home in the foreground and the P.R. Johnson Residents from what is now County Road 358. The Weng home was later owned by a Ross family, a Nordin family and is now owned by Bruce and Cindy Johnson. The home in the background is no longer there.

The bottom photo of the scene from Grand Avenue (now know as Old U.S. 41) features the Daggett High School, Luthran Church and the Daggett maternity home. The post card photos, distributed by Landsborough’s Drug Store, were photographed about 1916.

The first Cedar River Bridge Walk was held in 1987. The fourth annual walk, in 1990, featured in this week’s historical photos, showed the large crowd. Early walks were from the north end of Menominee County Veterans Memorial Bridge, which was dedicated in 1952, to the south into the village. Most recently, walkers now go from the Cedarville Township Volunteer Fire Department and township hall grounds to the south end of the bridge.
Menominee County Sheriff Bob Evans, at left, helped with traffic control during the 1990 walk. Area Veterans conducted a memorial service (below) on the bridge.

The Little Cedar River displays the drought conditions and low water level as it flows through Peterson Park in Daggett. The Mid-County area has been without any substantial rainfall for several weeks with most lawns remaining unmowed and farm crops showing the lack of rain. The area farm corn crop, that looked to be growing abundantly by the 4th of July, now displays curled leaves and is showing drying of the plants. Without rain soon, the corn will be too dry to produce full cobs of corn.
