FRIDAY DAILY














ONE OF NEW FACADE BUILDINGS THAT WORK HAS BEEN COMPLETED ON.
LOOKS GREAT.     THE BUILDING JUST TO SOUTH OF A BRAD DEERY NEW CAR
LOT AND DECKER HOTEL.    THE SOUTH WALL OF THIS BUILDING ALSO
REDONE COMPLETELY.    NOTHING UPSTAIRS BUT ALL NEW WINDOWS IN
FRONT AND ON THE SIDE.    THE SIDE WINDOWS  HAD BEEN BOARDED UP FOR
YEARS.    NO WORD IF ANYTHING WILL BE DONE ON THE 2ND FLOOR.   THE
DOOR ALMOST EXACTLY IN THE MIDDLE LEADS TO A WIDE STAIRWAY
UPSTAIRS.   MANY YEARS AGO, IT WAS ONE OF THE LOCATIONS OVER THE
YEARS FOR A MAQUOKETA YOUTH CENTER.





THIS PHOTO I TOOK UP ON THE  HILL BY SACRED HEART CEMETERY AND SHOWS
THE 11 A.M. CEREMONY AT VETERANS MEMORIAL  WHEN RED HENTON WAS
PRESENTED  THE U.S. FLAG.    THE CAR CARAVAN PARADE THEN
STARTED AFTER.

AT NOON YESTERDAY, AT THE LUNCHEON AT McDONALDS FOR RED,  SEN.
CHARLES GRASSLEY WAS THERE FOR LUNCH  BEFORE A  Q & A  FARM BUREAU
MEETING AT OHNWARD FINE ARTS CENTER.   HE STOPPED WHEN RED SAID
"HI CHARLEY".      GRASSLEY  DIDN'T REMEMBER RED BUT RED TOLD
HIM WHEN THEY HAD MET BEFORE DURING RED'S HORSESHOE PITCHING
DAYS.  

RED'S 100TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION WENT WELL AND RED REALLY ENJOYED
IT.     HE WAS KEPT BUSY FROM 11 A.M. UNTIL 7 P.M.     TODAY,  HE TOLD ME
HAS HAS  RECEIVED HUNDREDS OF CARDS.
