Great War Monument

Leeds is home to a Great War (World War I) monument that was constructed by the American War Mothers. The six foot tall granite pedestal bears a bronze tablet that lists seventy six men and two Red Cross nurses who participated in the conflict. The call to build the monument went out in the April 15, 1920 issue of the Leeds News. The November 18, 1920 issue of the Leeds News listed the names of the men and women who were to be placed on the monument in order to ensure that no names had been missed. The August 4, 1921 issue of the Leeds News announced that on August 7, 1921 the monument would be given its official dedication at 3 o'clock by the Great Northern right of way near the depot. It was written that "...this little spot has been seeded down and well cared for this summer and makes a pretty setting for the monument." The monument currently resides in Firemen's Memorial Park.

Climate

This climatic region is typified by large seasonal temperature differences, with warm to hot (and often humid) summers and cold (sometimes severely cold) winters. According to the Köppen Climate Classification system, Leeds has a humid continental climate, abbreviated "Dfb" on climate maps.[10]
