Vintage View: Entire Newspaper Staff Takes Vacation, 1952

Dakota County Tribune staffers left their readers some snippets of news to come as they departed the office for the week of July 4, 1952.

July 4, 1952: This one's pretty self explanatory.

The Dakota County Tribune staff took a little break for the July 4 holiday in 1952, but made sure to leave their readers with some teasers for next week's news.

We at Patch won't all be skipping town (or our websites) for a full week in this day and age, so keep coming back for new content. And we hope that, beyond continuing to read our sites, you get to take some time off to celebrate Independence Day.
