Pat Brindle reports that
conditions are very different
this year in that contributions
of top-condition clothing have
been scarce. Usually the
center has had a good stock of
children's and adult clothing
to met Christmas needs, but
this year people are not giving
up things so easily. All family

A Harvest Festival was held
at Valby Lutheran Church on
Sunday, Nov. 22. The festival
was a community-wide cele
bration of thanks for a
bountiful harvest, said the
Rev. John Maas.
A service of thanks was held
and a potluck dinner was
enjoyed by about 50 people
said the Rev. Maas.
Hugh Salter. lone, was
presented a plaque by Paul
Tews that states. "For many
years of outstanding service to
wheat haulers." and was
signed. "From your many
friends in the community."
Salter has been employed by
Morrow County Grain Grow
ers as an elevator operator for
over 30 years.
In conjunction with the
Harvest Festival, Roland
Bergstrom gave a talk on the
Valby Cemetery and a flag
pole and plaque were dedi
cated to the church by the lone
American Legion Post 95. The
plaque states, "In memory of
all veterans, pioneers and
their descendants buried
here." The flag was raised by
Don Peterson and Jerry
McElligott led the group in the
Pledge of Allegiance. "This
will remind us that we don't
really have it so bad in this
country," said Jerry
McElligott.
Dick McElligott was master
of ceremonies for the eve
ning's program. McElligott
spoke of the importance of all
people involved in wheat
production and said that
politicians say that three
percent of the population
produces the food for the
United States, and that figure
is incorrect, he stated, be
cause it would be impossible
to produce the food without all
of the people who help. "This
land has been farmed for 100
years. There's no reason it
can't go on for another
thousand if we'll take care of
it." said McElligott. He also
said the task of the farmers is
to preserve the land, because
the farmers will pass on some
day and the people after them
deserve it.
