The community had a very successful Blood Drive last Wednesday thanks
to the faithful donors and the challenge from Police Chief Terry Cochran
to the law officers, St. Mary's EMT's and the Fireman to see who could
get the highest number to respond. We had 106 come to donate with 97 usable
units. Very good. . . .

About
the Agnew house
While traveling through Cottonwood on Oct. 16, I learned that our old
family home had burned just the day before. It brough back many memories
and a bit of sadness, for that was the home that I was born in and grew
up in. Perhaps it is just as well that it is gone, as it looked as if it
was in pretty bad shape. . . .

Nuxoll, outstanding student, left and Ariel Whitley, honor student. What
separates Ariel Whitley from other outstanding students is her notable
desire to learn and perform. She has drawn murals at both the middle and
high school that really help the atmosphere. Her painting of the pirate
ship in the high school cafeteria has led her to more projects. Currently
she is working on a lighthouse mural for Mrs. Carter. In the high school
band, Ariel has become an accomplished player. She is a student officer
for the band and is a very serious music student. Her distinguished academic
achievements have earned her a place in National Honor Society at Prairie
High School. She is also a very active member of Prairie High school’s
drug free organization. She is an active member of the student body and
is a great addition to PHS. Ashley Nuxoll daughter of Don and Wanda Nuxoll
is very dependable and can be counted upon to complete any task given to
her. She exhibits a willingness to help with a cheery smile and positive
attitude. Cot Her leadership skills are evident in her many volunteer activities

Prairie Imperial Bowl at Craigmont was the scene of
a few scary people and good lookers on Tuesday of last week. The group
pictured here were celebrating just another day of bowling but decided
to add a few laughs and shaking of heads as they entered the doors. Most
of them went to lunch in Cottonwood so perhaps you laughed along with them.
Out Tuesday Morning Glories want to liven up our lives and let you enjoy
our fun with us. If anyone wants to join us a sub, please let Gladys Sonnen
know.
