Town Dwellers Share Holiday Visits Across Counties
A flurry of Christmas and New Year greetings shows neighbors and relatives travelling across Des Moines, Carroll, Dow City, Bayard, Perry, Scranton, and Spirit Lake. Visitors include Chester Whitten from Decorah, Mr. and Mrs. Curtis, Mrs. Hughes family, and Mrs. Booth’s kin, with many spending Christmas at local homes and returning home thereafter.
