The Sidney herald., 1958-03-27
Giirard
Homemakers' Cir

will be held at Girard Hall Sat
urday, March 20. This will eli.
max a project started almost two
years ago when the Hall Associ.
alton decided that if the hall wa.
going to be of any good to the
community it would have to be
fixed up. This took money which
the businessmen of Sidney ano
Fairview generously donated. AL
the work except digging the base
ment hole and moving the build
ing was done by the men and
women of the community. This
included making a foundation
and a 20x26 foot basement and
moving the hall onto it; putting
a bigger coal furnace and cold
air ducts and a new chimney in,
boarding up un-needed windows
and hanging new doors; building
cupboards and laying linoleum,
and cleaning and painting the in
terror. The women painted signs
in appreciation of the donations
received. 1t has been a long time
consuming job and there is still
some cement work and shingling
to be done when the weather is
warmer. The people of Girard are
proud of the work they have done
and hope that everyone will come
to their free dance and see wha'
you think of the improvements.
