grandchildren._
It's a boy! It's a girl!
"get it done for Christmas and
don’t worry about the money." She
got her quilt last week. It was a
beautiful job. In place of the $175
they charged for a king size, she
sent $400 and was well pleased. If
you don't already know it. the
quilters are volunteers, the Center
fund gels the money and they work
as hard as if they were paid money
In fact, we couldn't do without
them. Several out-of-state people
have also sent extra money for
their quilt as a donation to the
Center. We are very proud of
them.
There will be no more dance
classes until after Christmas.
We have some Christmas birth-
day we want to remember: Louise
Green the 3rd, Dorothy Mclnroe
the 5th, Irene Wolf the 9th, Calvin
Shoup the 11th, Geraldine Cate the
19th, Peggy Crisp the 20th, Jack
Criswell the 21st and Dan Rowlins
the 25th. A whopping big wish for
a»great’ day for‘air {here' special "
people."'
Until next time, make the most
of every day and stay well -
asthma and colds don't take a
holiday.
