Community News From Mullin
By MRS. JOHNNIE HOLLAND
Once again I missed writing a
latter last week. Everyone In
Mullin was sick with the flu.
and that Includes me. The
weather was extremely had—no
school throughout the week so
there just wasn’t anything to
write about. With some fresh
air and sunshine things are get-
ting better — I hope.
The pastor of the Methodist
Church in Mullin will be In Ok-
lahoma next Sunday. The dis-
trict superintendent, the Rev.
William Oreenwaldt of Brown-
wood. will be present to fill the
pulpit This will be a good op-
portunity for all who have been
HI and unable to attend church
to get back in the habit of go-
lag to church. That Includes me.
I hope to be there If I'm In
Mullin at the time.
Mrs Lena Leinneweber en-
tered the hospital at Qoldth-
waite last Sunday morning.

wood visited In Mullin last Sun-
day with Mr. and Mrs. Grady
Hancock.

17th. I think they are the only

and stayed out of the grocery
store. I’m already making my
plans to go to the square dance
that has been promised Uncle
Frank when be reaches the
Century Mark.
Several of us In Mullin have
had cards from Dick Kemp of

His condition remains about the
