But, as all the kids are, she was ready to return to Home, Sweet Home after one week, so she called to say, "Come and get me.." Our own Judy spent a funfilled week with Dolly and Ken Strorigl of Schaumburg, or so we thought. It was definitely fun-filled but when 3he returned home on Saturday, we learned she-had spent two nights in Batavia at the home of the Strorigls' niece, Paula Remsnyder. Originally, P&ula came to Schaumburg to be with Judy for a couple of days, but when they took her home she and her folks convinced Dolly and Ken to leave Judy with them for a couple of days. All I know is that when Judy came home and we asked if she had a good time she said "We had a ball." Let's Go Visiting Bet you thought I gave up this item entirely. Well, I didn't. It's just that I usually do my column so late at night that I can't call anyone and I just never think of it until I start to write. Excuses, excuses, all I've got is excuses! But this week we are going visiting. The address is 1912 West Oakleaf Drive and the name is O'Brien. Rita and Jim and their four children. There's Steven who will be five years old this year, Matthew was just three in January, Sarah will be two in September, and Rebecca who was born on Thanksgiving Day last November. Rita, (who is from Chicago) and Jim (who is from McHenry) were married on Oct. 29, 1955. They moved to our community from Lake Forest in March of 1957. Jim works for a construction company in West Dundee and Rita keeps mighty busy at home tending to the house and the four youngsters. They both have hobbies they enjoy, but find little leisure time in which to do so. Jim likes to hunt all game in season, but his favorite is moose; has one to his credit already, and he's only been on one moose hunt so far. Rita likes sewing and painting in the way of interior decoration, and her house proves it, too. A nice, young, suburbanite family, the O'Briens, and we're pleasecuthey live in our locale. Howdy, VJeiehbors! Happy Occasions Happy birthday today to Mrs. Emma Fischer, the mother of Herb Fischer of Oakleaf Drive.

The tenth is shared by Betty Lakowske and little Connie Hanahan who is two years old this year. Happy birthday one and all, and may each and everyone of you enjoy many, many more. Sorry, but no anniversaries to report this week. Guess Cupid was plumb tuckered out by end of June. Signing Off That just about wraps it up for this week. I know it's shorter than usual but if there are no calls, there can be no column.; few calls, short column; lot of calls, long column; and so it goes.
