JEWELL – On Saturday, Jan. 18, members of the Desire Tobey Sears Chapter, NSDAR met in Jewell at the Methodist Church to learn about and celebrate the Santa Fe Trail. Chapter Regent, Haley Popelka, Belleville led the members in the Flag Salute and American’s Creed. Chaplain, Kerma Crouse, Jewell discussed Psalm 34 and encouraged members to be thankful and extol The Lord. In keeping with the Santa Fe Trail theme, hard tack was served, along with other snacks. "This was to remind members of the hardships our ancestors have faced. Our revolutionary ancestors, our pioneering ancestors and military members have faced brutally cold weather, surviving on hard tack and other slim rations."
