To date six robes are completed and the goal is one for each
resident in the nursing home.
Anyone wishing to donate
scraps of polyester that will measure four inches square or
larger may do so by contacting Mrs. W ilson, a hospital Auxiliary
member, or by leaving remnants at Wilson’s Department Store.
Mrs. Hirsch, day supervisor said “The lap robes are so
popular, residents fortunate enough to have one won’t part
with it.”
At the present time, there are 36 residents at the
nursing home.
Auxiliary members also made six dozen large terry cloth
bibs and many more are needed. Any donations of terry cloth
in one to three-yard lengths will be greatly appreciated.
The annual Christmas party and visit from Santa Claus
will be Wednesday, December 19. Local organizations will
again be asked to participate by helping with the gifts. They
will be contacted early in December by an Auxiliary member.

Nyssa and its surrounding
farmlands have the unique
ability to produce thousands of
tons of sugar beets annually.
The kind of beets from which
quality White Satin sugars are
manufactured right here in
Nyssa.
Amalgamated Sugar Com­
pany, the largest single indus­
try in Nyssa, employs some
300 people in its local factory.
All types of sugar are manu­
factured, as well as large quan­
tities of beet pulp and molasses,
both valuable by-products of the
refining process.
With a slicing capacity of
6500 tons per day, the mill
will slice 785,000 tons of beets
this year alone. Approximately
500 local farmers grow the
beets on a total of nearly 30,000
acres of land. All these beets
