PRODUCE EXCHANGE OPENS HERE
New York and Chicago have nothing on Rochester in one respect at least, for a board of
trade has been opened here with G. H. Johnson of Plymouth in charge.
The exchange is known as the Rochester Produce Co. The proprietors will act as dealers
in stocks, grain and produce and have direct wires with Chicago and New York. Mr. Johnson is a
well-to-do citizen of Plymouth and offers as references any bank in that city. The room formerly
occupied by the Paris Cafe has been re-decorated and a telephone installed.

PARKER, RUSSELL [Rochester, Indiana]
WILL ACCEPT GOOD POSITION
After five years of efficient service in the employ of the Rochester Sentinel, Russell
Parker will resign this evening to accept the foremanship of the Plymouth Democrat.
Russell, better known to his friends as “Rud,” deserves a great deal of credit for the
strides that he has made in the newspaper world. He left school to enter this office and since then
has had but one week vacation. He is a clean young man and a steady employe. The best wishes of
every one are expressed for his success in Plymouth.

LOCAL ARTIST’S WORK HIGHLY COMPLIMENTED
Russell Parker, of this city, today received notice from judges of the Midland Artists
Exhibit, of Indiana and Michigan, that his oil painting, which was one of 236 entries of the South
Bend Artists exhibit, was placed in the class of the ten best paintings in the entire exhibit. This
ranking was most complimentary as many Indiana and Michigan’s foremost artists entered the
competition. Although Mr. Parker has had considerable experience in portrait and scenic oil work
this was his first debut in art gallery exhibits. The Midland Artists Association will hold another
exhibit in the fall. A number of Rochester people viewed the recent showing at South Bend.
