What happened in Peru 100 years ago? Let's look at some of the headlines in the Peru Republican--1907

Kendalville Furniture Co. and Chute & Butler factories locate in Oakdale
Palace 5 cent movie theatre opened on South Broadway
Capital stock of Senger Dry Goods Co. increased to $100,000. Prepares to move into new store, present location. note : The location is where Finchers Photo was
J. B. Goodall given contract to build Denver school
Standard Cabinet will erect factory

Because of a national shortage of cash, the Peru Banks urged people to spend money here at home, and outside loans are stopped. Money was allowed for pay rolls and depositors were allowed only a small sum each day
Wonder what headlines will emerge for 2007- one hundred years later?
