Decorations ready in town of Wellman
Wellman residents and Community Club members decorated the town for Christmas using boughs and bells after stable weather. The first annual Christmas drawing is set for December 7, with a second on December 9 and two more Thursdays and Saturdays to follow. Tickets are sold at local businesses and winners need not be present. Local Lions Club plans a ladies’ evening at The Willows in Washington. Several residents shared Thanksgiving weekends visiting relatives in Shreveport and St Louis, while others hosted family at home. Omer Leitsinger, formerly of Kinross, entered Veterans Hospital in Iowa City for an indefinite stay. Various club meetings and visits to relatives pepper the week, including trips to Chicago for a Farm Bureau bus tour and bankers’ meeting. If you want to know where half the U.S. population was last weekend, ask them.
