Alpine women host chicken pie supper for soldiers
Alpine women prepared a large chicken pie supper for officers and soldiers last Thursday evening. A dust storm marred but did not spoil the event. A long table with hot dishes drew praise from the crowd. Rev. Tartt offered an invocation before service, and the crowd enjoyed ample leftovers. Rifle club members met at the courthouse ordering ammunition and guns, with inquiries directed to Caldwell or Weaver. A new shipment of white wool trusses was announced at Kleine Anan’s.
