The ladies of Crooked Lake, Indiana hatched a plan they thought would shame their husbands into stop playing cards so often and stay home more but instead instigated a melee never seen before in that quiet town.

With the dance hall no longer an issue the ladies of Crooked Springs, Indiana where I grew up, could now devote their full attention to ridding their midst of the much maligned card parlor…maligned by the ladies but much appreciated by their husbands.

Now that God has taken care of the Crooked Springs, Indiana dance hall it’s up to the town’s ladies to do something about the infernal card parlor.
