Many longtime readers of The Frontier will recognize this
as L. C. Peters, who for many years was a reporter on this news
paper and earned recognition as an able, colorful and sometimes
imaginative writer. He is pictured at a desk in The Frontier
building which later was destroyed by fire. Mr. Peters’ writings
often were reprinted by other newspapers and periodicals
throughout the country. He was employed by the late D. H.
Cronin, who then was editor and publisher. For a time Mr.
Peters sold road culverts and bridge supplies. The present Fron
tier building was built in 1928.—Photo through courtesy of H. D.
