Christmas weather yet to arrive

From the Pope County Tribune, Thursday, December 13, 1923.

The Flaten Beauty shop, personally managed and operated by Gertrude Genevive Schreder, graduate, DeGuile School of Cosmetology, Minneapolis, offers the residents and vacationists of Glenwood and vicinity a complete beauty shop service, specializing in marcel and water waving, shampooing, scalp treatment, hair dying and bleaching, eyebrow arching and dying.

The only signs of Christmas so far are the numerous Christmas trees coming into Glenwood and the Christmas decorations in the store windows. The snow and cold that generally goes with Christmas has not as yet arrived. It is seldom in the history of Minnesota that we have known such a favorable fall weather.

That the anglers around Kensington will be in position to enjoy some real sport in the future is evidenced by the fact that several hundred crappies were planted in the various lakes north of town last week.

Two creamery meetings were held in the county last Saturday at which Mr. Hedlund, fieldman for district No. 13 in Minnesota, and C.T. Kirkvold, chairman for the same district, were present. These men held these meetings in Farwell in the afternoon and in Grove Lake in the evening for the purpose of explaining the new marketing plans of the Co-operative Creameries Association of Minnesota and to get these creameries to join. The officers of both these creameries were all present at the meetings of the respective creameries. Both of these creameries signed a contract to sell all its butter to this association.

Dr. Waldie of the Wadena Sanatorium will be in Glenwood on Friday, Dec. 21 in the forenoon from 9:30 to 12:00 o’clock to conduct a tuberculosis clinic. The clinic will be held in the city hall. At the clinic which was held here last spring a number of suspicious cases were found who needed watching. These may now come in and be examined so that they may find what their condition is at the present time. Ninety percent of the early cases are arrested or cured under proper treatment. Do not wait until you are really ill.

Chocolate Cream Coffee and Sunshine Biscuits will be served free of charge from 1:30 to 5:30 p.m., Saturday, December 15 at Hershman’s Dep’t. Store.
