Title A name given to the resource Bess Divine Baird, Rossville, Kansas Description An account of the resource Personalities You Should Know People who have come and gone from Rossville in the past 31 years probably have had opportunity of meeting Bess Divine Baird. Bess has operated the Divine Cafe at the same location these entire 31 years. Mrs. Jake Baird came to Rossville in the year 1919 from Kansas City. Mo. After arriving here she worked for about a year at the Golden Belt Cafe which some old-timers can remember. Later she opened up a dry cleaners and laundry in the building now housing the cafe. A short time later she changed the laundry business to the cafe she has operated ever since. Good-natured Bess has met every kind of person you could think of in her cafe. Bess says she has dished out about everything and has taken about everything. She has the record of being the third longest in business in Rossville. C. E. Gresser has been in business here the longest at the Peoples State Bank, she said, and William Hesse of Hesse Lumber Co is the second, having been in business just about a week before she was. The Divine Cafe has long been the “old faithful” on Main street. For many years it has been the coffee break stop for businessmen and the heaping plates of home-cooked food for the workers. Mrs. Baird is a member of the Royal Neighbors and the Silver Lake American Legion Auxiliary.

Title A name given to the resource Bob Bixby's Alligator, 1956, Rossville, Kansas Subject The topic of the resource Pets Description An account of the resource J June 14, 1956 “SEE you LATER, ALLIGATOR…” Kansas State Sigma Nu member harbors strange mascot here When you say, “See You Later, Alligator” to Bob Bixby, son of Mr. and Mrs. Howard Bixby of Rossville, you may be saying just what it implies. Bixby has been seen around town with a real live alligator. The alligator is the mascot of the Sigma Nu fraternity house of which Bixby is a member in Manhattan. During the summer vacation, Bixby has volunteered to take care of it. "Beauregard", as it's named, is about 3 1/2 years old and is about three feet long, from nose to tail. "It's just billfold size", Bob says. Beauregard's sex has not been determined but if he lives long enough the Sigma Nu's could have a pet that measures 12 to 14 feet in length. The ’gator became the Sigma Nil mascot when Jim Krome of Mississippi City, Mississippi, caught it in a swamp end brought it to his fraternity following the Christmas holiday. Beauregard is allowed to run free in Krome’s room at night. Part of the time the house mother has had her bathtub used to wet the ’gator which they usually do once a day. Rawlings Pint Size Super will have the alligator on dis¬play this Friday and Saturday. Bob Rawlings, proprietor of the store believed everyone would be interested in seeing Beauregard, especially the kid¬dies. Bixby is keeping Beauregard at his grandfather’s place east of town. A special pen has been ar¬ranged in order to keep him home and not scare the neighbors. He is fed meat scraps and lettuce but, being a reptile, he stores his food in his tail for a reserve and doesn’t need to eat but once every few days. [CAPTION 1:] Beauregard, mascot of Bob Bixby’s fraternity, Sigma Nu, seems to smile, a daring to get closer. When asked if Beauregard has ever bitten anyone, Bixby said, “Nobody has ever given him a chance to.” [CAPTION 2:] Bob Bixby, who handles the alligator like the ‘gator enjoyed being handled likes to show the needle sharp teeth it has. Beauregard, who is relatively untamed, would not perform for the photographer even with Bixby’s coaxing. If he could talk he would surely have said, “After while, Crocodile.” Reporter Photo Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Rossville Reporter, Rossville, Kansas Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Rossville Community Library Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource June 14, 1956 Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource The Rossville Reporter has given us copyright license.
