Tops In Treats The nicest gesture we've come across in quite sometime. That thoughtful, talented gal, Lena Eckhardt, and her husband. Fred, gave a "welcome to the neighborhood" party for Mayda and Gene Shigley Wednesday Sept. 19. The •jguests of honor were completely '^unaware of the treat in store for them. Wonderful cook that she is, Lena went "all out" in preparing a full course meal complete with appetizers, fruit cocktails and all the rest. "Piece de resistance" was the superb fruit punch served after the dinner. The table was tastefully decorated with crystal and flowers. . rvj, Later in the evening, guests 'felsie and Clayt Nelson, Elma, Earl, Don and Ken Nelson, Gert and Chester Helwig, Pearl and Wyn Pietsch and Wilma and Roy Zody were amused with games which Lena had planned. Winners were awarded delightful prizes. It was a night that the Shigleys will truly remember, due to the thoughtfulness of a wonderful neighbor an^ friend! Busy Lads Members of the Sportsmen's clubs have been hard at work releasing fresh! clean! water into the lake. After ' completing the work on the south stream, they have been concentrating their efforts on the north stream, which has proved just as good. This will make a tremendous differ- ^ence in jhe water level, plus sup- ^plying fresh water. The men of the club were fortunate'enough to procure another area of land nearby which will be built into, a skeet range, archery field course, trap shooting and a live trout pond! How's that for outdoor activities? This, of course, will? take time and money but the fellows are enthused and confident that the project will be carried out. This club is to be commended for uniting all the subdivisions which surround and share our lake. The Sportsmen's club ijovv has its seventy-five-man quota for the fall pheasant shooting, and they are looking forward to pleasant hours in the field near the Schwarz farm, Woodstock. Kid's Day The" 'Kiwanis International is sponsoring its annual Kid's Day Sept. 28 and 29. The Wonder Lake chapter has asked for our cooperation in obtaining' funds for poor and needy children. Young boys and girls will be calling at your home this week for your contribution. Please give what you can for this worthy cause. EXTERIOR FOR MODERN XOLO Not So Well That usually peppy fellow, Herman Jahnke, has been under the weather for quite some time. He has been under doctor's care for two months and is waiting anxiously for better health. Our good friend, Ed Walton, underwent surgery last week at Norwegian-American hospital in Chicago. His condition was very serious but we hope by this time he is much improved. Battle Of The Sexes McDonald's field, Sunday, was the scene of the annual softball contest between the guys 'n gals. The unfair advantage was evened up somewhat by the fellows batting and throwing lefthanded and a "few other" odd rules. Some of the situations were really amusing and drew a large crowd. The honor of the distaf side was upheld by Liz Cable, Gerry Jensen, Jerry Doran, Anne Matthesius, Marianne Tranberg, Rutli and daughter, Jean McGinley, Lil Hansen, Mardy Lorch, Use Toeme, "Davida" Hansen and your reporter.

We Will Not Be Undersold! CALL FOR ESTIMATE • McHEWHY 1( M McHRY FIBRE GLASS An imposing array of twentyfour top-flight government and business leacTers will be on hand Oct. 4 and 5, when Illinois businessmen congregate in Chicago for the thirty-eighth annual meeting of the Illinois State Chamber of Commerce. Heading up the list are such nationally prominent figures as Ezra Taft Benson, Victor Riesel and Senators Symington, Bricker, Dirksen and McClellan. Sessions will be held Jit the Sherafon hotel with the exceptionof the annual banquet Friday evening, Oct: 5, which will be at the Palmer House. "Every effort has been made to make the 1956 affair one of the most interesting and informative ever held," said Louis Ratzesberger, Jr., president of the statewide business . organization, who announced details of the meeting. "The continued high calibre of the Chamber's annual meeting has earned its recognition as being the leading business meeting of its kind in the midwest. We are confident that the outstanding program planned for the 1956 conclave will more than live up to this reputation." Climax of the meeting will be the annual banquet Friday night when the spotlight will focus on a quartet of eminent Washington lawmakers including Republican Senators Everett McKinley Dirksen of Illinois and John W. Bricker of Ohio and Democratic Senators John McClellan of Arkansas and Stuart Symington of Missouri. With election day fevers reaching a zenith, the two teams of senators -- all four are active party spokesmen -- undoubtedly will stoke the political furnace with soft high octane appeals for votes. General theme of the discussion will b<*- "What May We Expect After Nov. 6?" Banquet entertainment will be furnished by the Don Wright chorus of London, Ontario, probably the best known vocal group in Canada.
