Thursday, April 23, 1959 THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Eastwood Manor PROTECT CHILDREN FROM ACCIDENTS IN SUBDIVISION Lois Ryan--2310-K ^If you were to ask anyone in Eastwood Monor if they loved their children, you could be sure that the answer would be irf the affirmative. Everyone is concerned about their own. They see that their children have proper clothing, good food, religious and academic education, and protection from the elements. There is, however, another type of care--of •otection. You can help your neighbor protect his children by driving carefully through the subdivision. Still another way is to keep your children out of the street. Keep them from following the workmen -who- run the big equipment. Make sure that their toys are out of the street so that they won't someday cause an accw dent. By doing this you are «'lping your neighbors to protect children because you are setting an example for him to follow. You won't be sorry.

The bridge club met at the home of Elpha Philippi. Elpha kept within the theme of spring when the prizes she gave were potted plants. Hannah Harner won first prize. Travelling prize went to Helen Mathes and Mim Hansen won booby prize. Marion Alford substituted for Rita Simpson, who was home caring for her brand new baby girl. The Tripoli club met at Marie Dalton's home. Elaine Rogers won. It's reported that this is Elaine's lucky streak. However, Marie Dalton reports that she lost as usual. But it was fun. The meeting of the Octettes turned out to be quite a surprise for Lydia Fenner. Vern Bauer was hostess to the gdjs for two reiasons. The obvious reason was the meeting of the Octettes, but behind it all was a riot so obvious reason. Not to Lydia anyway. It turned out to be a baby shower for her. And it was kept a very deep, dark secret. She's still surprised. The table prizes were storks holding babies attached to pink and blue streamers. A cake with one pink sugar shoe and one blue sugar shoe on top was served. Soda refreshments were served with the cake. Marge Tinkler took home a blue and white duster for first prize. Lydia Fenner took home a load of clothespins for second prize. She can really use them now. Bertha Stoll will be hostess for the next Octette meeting on April 29.

Don Cisewski is off of work keeping company with a virus. Charlotte Urban is staying home these days also. She has a strep infection. The flu got around to see Lena Campbell this week. Mike Stuart has the mumps. Not much more can be said about that. Please everyone get well very soon.

"I figured they'd have to do," he went on, "so I just hoped for the best. Then, when Pinky saw the rabbits she ran into the house, yelling, 'Wait'll you see my rabbits! Those vitamins made them twice as big!'" From where I sit, children see things as they'd "like them to be," but adults ought to see things as they are.

He', with represent ati\es of ether industries, will help plan the 1959-60 program to help keep Illinois at the top of the agricultural list. The state program for the past several years has received national recognition with its theme "Food Comes First" for health and happiness. Part of the program that has been highly successful is bringing the farmer, processor, and retailer together for a better understanding of their mutual problem of keeping the supply moving to the consumer. Harold Echternach of nearby Crystal Lake will represent. the Illinois Retail Grocers association at these meetings. John Smith was guest of honor at a retirement dinner given by the members of the post office in Chicago.
