Courthouse to
Receive Lights
Dallas For the first time
since the pre-war Christmas of
1940, the vine-covered Polk
county courthouse will be bril
liantly lighted with colored
lamps this year to add to the
spirit of the holiday season.
Lights will surround the
building and a star will sur
mount the toiler in a display
comparable to those of former
years which attracted much at
tention throughout the state.
The city hall will also be decor
ated and merchants are regain
ing the decorative spirit which
was subdued beginning with
the blacked-out Christmas of
1941.
Firemen renewed their an
nual custom of erecting a large
Christmas tree on the court
house lawn which is now illu
minated along with other trees
on the grounds. Fred West,

orating. Illness of Pupils
Reported at Dallas
Dallas About 18 per cent
of the pupils In the Dallas
schools were absent Wednesday
as a result of illness, according
to S. E. Whitworth, superin
tendent of schools, who stated
that the holiday season, which
begins Friday and continues
through January 1, should give
ample time for recuperation.
Most of the illness was due to
flu, but as yet the disease has
not reached epidemic propor
tions locally.
Due to the large number of
absences Tuesday at the elemen
tary school when Dr. McKel
land, county health officer, and
Nurse Roberts of the health
department, were administering
diphtheria shots, it was an
nounced that those absent
might call at the Polk county
health office any Thursday for
the shots.

town. No material damage re
sulted. The call Thursday ws the
eleventh this month, during the
most trying cold spell for a
number of years. Two car fires
and nine flues burning, with
no serious damage, is consid
ered an appreciable record for
the Volunteer fire fighters.
The men had to contend with
a heavy coating of ice on the
roadway Thursday.

rick of Zena were their neph
