Saco Dry Goods

Saco, Montana (population 145); June 3--- An abandoned dry goods store with traces of its 'Osh Kosh B'Gosh' slogan has been left to lean with the wind. Across the street, the old Ford auto garage no longer shows its logo. In the evening, people walk by these relics, leaving the overalls and spark plugs to yesterday, pass the old bank that was changed into an hotel, now a delapidated rooming house, and head to OD's saloon to join in the community barbeque. Norman Mavencamp saw us on the road and made certain we knew about it. Norman had supplied the meat. He runs each year in the senior Olympics. He is 86.
