Community Notes From Sterling and Lincoln Area
Mr and Mrs John Witt Elsie Witt and Mrs F W Vaughan were callers in Sterling last Monday. Joe Johnson is spending a few days in Lincoln and other points on bus iness. If you have children our line of high class toys will delight them. Come in and look over our line. Bought your Christmas cards Plenty left at The Gift Shop They are cheaper this year. Dr Ames has knitted two caps for the Auxiliary rehabilitation work and they tell us the product compares favorably with those knitted by the women. Mrs Kate Hansen was the first to finish and turn in her assign ment. Unintentionally though it was we neglected last week to mention the outcome of the Epworth League play Cyclone Sally held on the evening of December 4th. On account of our work we were not privileged to attend but can judge the quality of the performance by the many compliments it got from people who did attend. The players evidently carried their parts in fine shape. A fair sized crowd was present and an appreciable sum was cleared for the League treasury.
