Mr. and Mrs. Arlie Fritz of Evergreen Park, Ill., visited Friday and Saturday at the Elliot Warlum home. Mr. and Mrs. Fritz were enroute home from Shawano, where they spent a week at their cottage.

Mr. and Mrs. P. T. (Ford) Holum have returned from a three-week vacation trip to New York State and New England. They visited their son, Bruce, and his family who live near Fishkill, which is located along the Hudson River between New York City and Poughkeepsie. During their visit they made a tour of New England states, traveling through New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts and Connecticut. They made the trip to New York and back by airplane, and used a car belonging to their son to make the New England drive.

Mr. and Mrs. Werner Jenni left last Friday on the first leg of a projected three-week trip to California. They drove to Milwaukee, where they were joined by their son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Myron Payne, and their grandchild, Marsha Payne. They planned to drive to Banning, Calif., to visit Mr. Jenni’s brother and sister-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Herman Jenni. The latter have visited the Jenni families in Neillsville several times.
