Abstract
The newspaper for the Sunny Shore area in the Nelson brothers' imaginary world is present in a two-column format. In this undated issue, there is a report of a fire in Elm that caused much damage and took many lives. "The Big Fire in Elm" is signed with the initials W.J.L., probably the initials for William J. Little, Arthur Nelson's alter ego. The main story is followed by the condensed news of the week (a section that often appears in the Nelsons' periodicals) and "General Topics of the Times." Topics covered include land developments, agriculture, population, travels and more. The "New Poplington News" section reports news of the area including another victory for Ethan Allen. In addition to the preceding sections, a detailed profile is given of the Lady Nell strawberry encouraging people to visit Sunny Shore and try it for themselves. The issue concludes with a preview of upcoming stories.
