• REMEMBER WHEN: A wild time in the Roaring Twenties (timesleader.com) — A century ago this month, police uncovered a massive bootlegging operation in a Plymouth home, seizing thousands of gallons of illegal alcohol during Prohibition. Local history writer Tom Mooney uses that raid and other 1926 controversies, like Wilkes-Barre consolidation and Sunday baseball bans, to compare the “Roaring Twenties” in Wyoming Valley with today’s comparatively calmer “Boring Twenties.”
