A festive message conveys warm wishes for a blessed holiday season addressed to readers, hoping peace, joy, and goodwill for everyone during this time.
A Christmas message from former Moravians the Richard Sneeds of California offers seven simple season tips focusing on enthusiasm, doing more, positivity, treating others well, friendship in hardship, finishing tasks, and daily prayer. The piece contrasts costly gift culture with gifts of love and recalls Bethlehem’s nativity amid modern strife in the Middle East. It also notes local school and college athletics highlights including Moravia figures Molly Van Benthuysers and Sally Martin, and touches on food stamp participation and transportation cost estimates from 1975.
The report highlights high costs of operating the family car and notes limited DOT road plans. It mentions replacing a culvert 214 miles south of Unionville and a Doggett Creek bridge 4 miles east of Centerville on Hwy 2 in 1978, plus six other listed needs with no work plans and Monroe County work focused on removing the Hocking Creek bridge 2 miles south of Albia.
An estimate shows costs at $7,824,000 across four listed critical needs in Monroe County with no current plans for execution. The report notes an earlier estimate of $15,000 related to an unspecified project and highlights the absence of immediate actions for the listed items.
Listed are routes from Highway 34 in Albia through Albia and 7.3 miles north and east. Directions extend from Mélrose north to Highway 34 and from the Lucas County line east 22 miles.
