Joshers Club Distributes Christmas Baskets in Butte
In Butte the Joshers Club organized a major aid drive with about 400 families served. A 647 pound bearded pork hog from Ed Rowe of Red Rock plus nine quarters of beef and 23 head of sheep aided their intake. Volunteers led by Billy Gemmell dispatched baskets averaging 15–20 pounds meat, 25 pounds flour, 10 pounds cornmeal, 50–100 pounds potatoes, canned goods and milk. Letters demanding help were reviewed, with many widows and families in need receiving food and holiday cheer.
