As you recall, hqis now living atthe Masonic Home in Sullivan, 111. According to a letter received from him, he and other residents, were entertained by bell ringers, a band concert by a local high school group and a choral program conducted by a high school choral society. The many parlors in the home were decorated with trees, lights, and holly, making the entire place like a home living room. Christmas Day was especially festive with a big turkey dinner for all residents and a party in the Chapel. Siegfried reports that his health is a great improvement over last year when he suffered a serious heart attack and was hospitalized for almost two months. He attributes his remarkable recovery to the dedicated services of a wonderful doctor and fine nurses. We couldn't be happier for this cheerful fellow who deserves the best. Please remember him throughout the year and especially March 14 when he will be celebrating his eighty-second birthday! HOLIDAY VISITOR FROM THE EAST Mention Boston, Mass., and this entire family gets nostal-. gic as Jake hails from that area, and two of our young ones and 'myself dwelled in Lowell for a time. We mention Boston because the Bob Nixon family and Thelma Harper were overjoyed during the holidays to play host to William Harper of that Eastern city. He is a leather goods tycoon and is an authority on beautiful soft supple shoes and boots. The fellow is Kay Nixon's brother and the son of Thelma. He plans to be wed Feb. 11 and Thelma will be making the journey to Martinfs Ferry, Ohio, for the mqitials. During his stay, the entire group attended candlelight services at Nativity Lutheran church, Wonder Lake. They also made explorations of the area and pointed cut places of interest. His visit was especially uplifting for Kay who is still convalescing from spinal surgery. UNINTENTIONAL OMISSION We are sorry for Omitting the name of Paul (Bud) Brendle from last week's article on the Boy Scouts. Bud, who is an assistant Scoutmaster of Troop 131 accompanied Mr. Hoak and Mr. Schmidt whenthepresentation of a wall placque was made to Elmer Thorp for his work in behalf of the young lads. Please excuse the blunder; Paul, but it gives us a chance to further publicize a wonderful group of men and young lads wh9 work mostly without recognition, but only a desire to help their community and other people!
