It's that time of year again. Please consider giving to the Unadilla Area Fund donation drive. They are a caring organization and do so much for our community. Your gift can be left with Kristi at the bank.
School dismisses early on December 20th and resumes January 6th. Get those sleds out...surely we'll get some snow!
The Food Bank of Lincoln continues to help our community by sharing food items with those who need some help. Last Friday they helped 125+ families. Thanks so much to them and the dedicated folks who showed up to help: Galen Crawford, Andrew Kimbell, Margaret Wertman, Mary Wallen, Steve Kroese, Dale Henke, Craig Kimbell, Mark Clem, and Bob Wilhelm. Also thanks to Linda Liesemeyer and Janet Oelke for delivering items to those who could not attend.
Saturday evening most of our family attended the musical "Cinderella" at the Nebraska Wesleyan Annie L. McDonald Theatre. We enjoyed this so much and the family meal we shared before the performance. What fun it was! Next up: "Dial "M" for Murder" in January, and "The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical" in February. Thank you Michele!!!
Wherever you may celebrate this season, please be safe in your travels. Wishing you the happiest of holidays from the Western Wilhelm Outpost.

NEWS FROM 100 YEARS AGO
Friday, 12-12-1924, The Otoe Union:
In notes from the Village Board meeting: K.C. Stoner, clerk, made $4 a month, while Harvey Taney, janitor at the Town Hall, made $12 a month. Everyone was excited that Hair's store was carrying "Zipper Overshoes". The state planned to route the highway (#2), 4 miles north of Syracuse and then through Paisley, and then on to Lincoln. Several men from both communities met with the state engineer, and obviously changed his mind! Construction would start the following spring.

Synopsis: From the bonny shores of England comes the Styckes-Upon-Thump Repertory Theatre Company, a stuffy old traveling troupe embarking on their fifteenth annual farewell tour of the Dicken’s tale. Can the theatre troupe handle the egos of their actors, a precarious set, and constant costume changes, and still manage to redeem old Ebeneezer Scrooge by Christmas Day? A fresh twist on a timeless tale, this comedy is a festive rollercoaster of humor, perfect for those seeking a jolly good time this holiday season!
