Warren Plaza News By MARTHA PAGE We have made it through another week in spite of the ice and the cold weather. It has kept us all inside and several of the residents have the sniffles, but most of us have tolerated it well. Tempers get a little bit on edge when everyone has to stay in side all the time, but playing some games and putting the record player out in the hall and having a dance helped to make everyone feel better. Our residents really do enjoy music of any kind. It makes everyone feel better when we play records for them. A group from South Henderson Church of God brought a guitar player and singers with them Sunday when they Mrs. Mary White Entertains Class The V. L. Pendleton Philathea Class of the Warrenton Baptist Church met in the home of Mrs. Mary White on Jan. 10 at 8 p. m. Mrs. Louis Hutton and Mrs. Ruth Reams were co hostesses. Mrs. Jack Grove, president, presided. The devotional period was conducted by Miss Virgie Duke. After the various committee reports were presented, Mrs. Mary White gave a program consisting of thoughts for everyday living taken from "A Fence of Trust" by Mary Fran ces Butts. Well-known quotes from Phillips Brooks, Charles Kingley, William Chan ning, Tennyson, Longfellow and others were used. The meeting was closed with prayer by Mrs. Groves. During the fellowship period, Mrs. White ser ved pineapple cake, spiced tea and cheese wafers to the eight members present. came to hold our church service and everyone enjoyed thera so much. We are very thankful for this group. They have been coming each Sun day afternoon for almost two years and the residents really do look forward to their visit each week. Several of our residents have had visitors this week. They are: Ernest Pauley, Grant Scarborough, Edgar Bullock, Dora Collier, Mina Reid, Pearl Bobbitt, Norman Reed, Mollie Dye, Louise Kearney, Joe and Maude Radford, Tillman Mathes, Bur nice Roberson, James Brodie, Joseph Ayscue, Francis Green, Otis Shearin and Walter Rich. I wish it were possible for all of our residents to have visitors on a regular basis, but some of them do not have families or have families that simply can't be bothered. We now have a lot of young people living with us and these people, especially, need some family con tact. It's sad enough that they would need to be in a rest home, but even sadder when they are put here and their families don't even come to visit. Some of them don't even get mail from home. Announce Birth Mr. and Mrs. Leon Edmonds of Zebulon an nounce the birth of a baby girl, Amy Nicole, on Jan. 4 in Rex Hospital in Raleigh. The infant weighed 6 pounds, 13 ounces.
