IS Car Accident On Friday the thirteenth, Ray Swenski was involved in a thirteen car accidenjt on Ed- «uis Highway. Perhaps some %!f you will remember the By: Russ Emerson, R.Ph. Man's preoccupation with the solving of his ills has taken many strange routes down through the centuries. In ancient Babylon, for example, it wasn't uncommon to exhibit sick people in the street in the hope that passers-by might recognize an illness and thus offer worthwhile advice and treatment. Later the progressive Babylonians further pursued their interest in sickness and cure and professional physicians, even specialists,- appeared to< take the place pf the transient amateur doctors. Nothing, however, can take the place of accuracy, care and experience in the proper filling of prescriptions. You are fissured of the highest quality at TOILLSTREAM DRUGS, INC. Jewel Shopping Plans, Phone 386-5057. If »you have- any questions regarding pharmacy or public health, discussed in this column, write to Ross Emerson, c/o of this paper. We give Double S&H Green Stamps with prescriptions. r.ews reports on the tadio at that time. Ray's car was standing still at the time and heaven only knows i.iw Ray' managed^to survive. He was taken by ambulance to Evanston hospital. He has been at home convalescing for three weeks and. according to doctor's reports he should expect to spend at least another three weeks before he will be dble to do any thing. He is taking t h e r a p y t r e a t m e n t s t h r e e times a week. Agnes tells us that there were seven cars in one lane and six in the other lane that were all involved in this pile-up. We sure icpe that Ray gets better fast, md I am sure that all his riends are welcome to stop 'by and pas with him. ky Family nski tells me that lastNtjontl/ her dog' wrapped his chain around her ankle and she had quite a bit of trouble with it. As if the family didn't have enough troubles, she had to step on^a nail •-- in the same foot! Looks like the Swenski family had all the Friday the thirteenth good fortune. Our fine couple around town, Mr. and Mrs. John Locke (the former Mary Ann Swenski) and their little girl, Jane Ellen, were visitors in her parents' home at the time of the accident. Mary Ann was staying with Mom due to her husband's transfer from St. Paul to Pittsburg. We all wish this yoiing couple much happiness ^n their new environment. Suffers Heart Attack Marcella Foss's father, Stanley Sohm, is in a Chicago hospital because of a heart attack he suffered recently. We wish him a speedy recovery.

You'll need hammers for repairing the fence, rakes, and what ever other tools you can think of to do the job. Let's nake this a joint effort and 'see if we can't get an overabundance of men out. It is the beauty of our lake that is the biggest asset to our village. Let's make our beauty shine! I Boat Ride Were you wondering who the party was that was out in a motor boat last week Sunday?

I had stated that the Hardt children's dog, Lassie, had passed away in the fire at their home in Oak Park. I recently learned that the dog is alive and well and is staying with neighbors. It seems that at the time of confusion many things happen. Someone opened up. the back door and said, "go. Lassie, go" and she ran into the back yard.
