The High Prairie church and Sunday school drew steady crowds with returning young teachers and students on weekends. The Ladies Aid met at a member’s home for the first time since July, and members shared visits, meals, and church events through the week.
The Ladies Aid served a large turnout after the Campbell sale though much of the remaining stock sold. Mrs. Cal Rugby announced high quality items and the Turn population will stay until spring. The Campbells plan to move to Willow Springs and Mr and Mrs Walter Day will occupy Pleasant Grove. Lyons and families will be missed in church and community groups. The Bell telephone meeting occurred at Pleasant Grove school house and the Embroidery club paused until after Thanksgiving. The County Fair will be well represented locally and weather and roads remain favorable.
Neighborhood activity centers on church prayer meetings and visits. Residents like Mrs Brubaker Mrs Dyer and Miss Brubaker attend social calls while a Topeka fair draws crowds. Local families plan for the Douglas County Fair and Baldwin visits noted with Sunday gatherings at various homes.
