Community Notes From Grand Narrows and District
Grand Narrows residents report Mrs Burrell returned home last Saturday while Mr Dixon came back from the lumber camp the same day. A local dance by district youth drew a good crowd in the hall last Friday. Gratitude is extended to Liverwood and Happy Lake friends for their attendance. The Young Peoples meeting, led by V. J. Blewett, discussed whether an individual has the right to do as he pleases. The season will close with a final meeting on April 1. A quilting bee at the home of ten featured two frames, and the adage many hands make light work seemed to ease the workload before lodges dispersed.
