A welcome home party for Sterling Clouse, Clyde Jones, and Bill Merrell followed by a one act play at Virden High and a musical number highlighted Tuesday events. Wednesday to Thursday featured quilting, birthday party for Melverne Richins, and M Men basketball. Church services, a fireside, and various visits wrapped up a busy week with illness recoveries and travel notes among local families.
