Reception for Families Moving From the Community
A church gathering honored Wood Vestal Ed Swartz and Mrs Frank Whitehill as they prepare to leave. The Whitehills move near Tabor, the Vestals to a Grant area farm, the Swartz family to Algona. A Father and Son banquet is planned for Feb 22 at the church, and the Ladies Union report proceeds from a recent sale.
