Velma Henderson offers a year end meditation on 1961 in Egypt reflecting on work automation, purpose, and personal growth. The column includes local Christmas greetings, notes on neighbors like W. R. Corvin and various Ada area households, visits, illness, and holiday activities as the year closes.
The Oakman community shares holiday greetings and family updates. Residents report visits from relatives in Ada, Wichita Falls, and Norman, and note youngsters traveling to California for ten weeks and Hawaii for a three year Air Force assignment. Local scenes cover home projects, furniture and plumbing work, a remodeled Buck Goggins house, and a new propane tank. The paper also records illnesses, hospital stays, funeral arrangements for Mona Price Der and Rebecca Laseman, school reopenings, and Christmas program activities at Oakman church.
Ila Pevehouse returns Oakman notes with updates on local events. She explains her absence due to work at Valley View Hospital and shares a family update about her son Bill, who sustained facial injuries and stitches after a car accident.
Fragmented notes quote varied maxims and sketches from Uncle Leys style prose. References include Hinch Peters and Gramon Hedges, with lines on drinking thinking and odd contrasts. Notes mention growth, family roles, and moral quips amid garbled names and ages.
