By MARTHA PAGE
What a lovely fall
week we have had with
beautiful, warm, sun
shiny days and cool
nights.
We have put out all the
blankets on the beds,
and they sure felt good
these cool nights.
The leaves are all
beginning to turn and it
will soon be very pretty
outside. Fall is our
favorite time of the
year, but we certainly
don't look forward to
winter and the snow and
slick roads. Wouldn't it
be great if we could
have this kind of
weather all the time?
Well, Halloween is
right around the corner
and we are planning to
have a party for the
residents on that day.
We would like for some
of you who belong to
church groups or civic
organizations to help us
out by donating some
items that we can use
for prizes in bingo
games, fishing games
and other types of
games. We would also
like to some of you to do
nate some candy and
fruit for us to distribute
to them, or bake sheet
cakes or cupcakes for
them. The local groups
have always come
through and helped us
out and we are asking
one more time. We only
need small gifts for
prizes, possibly things
youhave around the
house that the residents
might be able to use.
Birthdays for the
month are: Mary Lou
Hall 1, Elsie Whitaker 6,
Levi Daughtry 15, Nettie
Wilson 16, and Russell
Page 28.1 am sure they
would all appreciate a
card from you.
We want to say
"Thank You" to some
folks who have brought
some items to the home
for our use. Mr. and
Mrs. Ray Nelson of Lit
tleton brought large size
clothes and shoes and
Hy Diamond brought
some clothes and other
items that we can cer
tainly use.
Several other folks
have brought magazines
by and some other
things and didn't leave
their names, but we
want to thank them
anyway.
We are always
grateful for everything
that is brought here aid
it is always used.
Until next week, <2od
bless.
