His , dad tells me that he is studying business administration and has his eyes on journalism. Welcome home, Terry, and good luck in yoiilr fine work. Speeders, Beware! I have been asked to mention the fact that since improvements hare been made on the roads in the village, this was not necessarily done for the benefit of speeders. Although many of our young ones have grown up, many, many more little ones are still trying to grow up, and a speeding automobile is no match for their life. Speed limit signs are posted in the village for, all to see and obey. Curfew Hours The village still has curfew hours" which are expected to be upheld. The hours are 10:30 from Sunday night to Thursday night. Fridays and Saturdays the hour is midnight. It will pay all parents in the long run to take note of these hours and see that your children are in their abode by that tipie. These hours were set up by most towns and villages for the protection of our youth. Let us parents help in enforcing^- Ujem. News Bits Mr. and Mrs. Rosing spent a day in the home of her son, Richard Molidor, of Zion near Benton Harbor. The James Schmit family spent last Sunday at the home of Richard Tr Herrmann in F r a n k l i n Park w h e r e t h e y a t tended a graduation party for Annette's nephew, Robert. At Wotne Our Friends,V Lil and Red Sumnierville, moved into their brand new home in Larkdale last Sunday. Their new home is a very large six room, full basement house, with plenty of play space for the children. We hope they will be very nappy there. We wish them all the good fortune and happiness that can be^ha.d, --- Airport Visit The small Schmit children had their very first view of an airplane last Sunday, when mom and dad took them to O'Hare airport to see Aunt' Millie Kopis off on her flight 23 on the golden jet to Denver. The children watched with telescope eyes while the tube retracted and Millie, Diane and Donnie taxied around the field and then took off. They never dreamed that jets were so big and that the terminal was so full of hustle and bustle. Millie was met in Denver by her husband, Donald Kopis, after a two we&k visit here. Finis Again, another week has gone by. I-'m still waiting for a call for you, telling me that everything is .fine at your house. An item that seems common place to you, could be news to your neighbor. Won't you share it with them? Yoyr column is for you and by you. You mean something to your neighbors. Call 385-5536 and let me help you with your news item. Don't forget, tonight is the village meeting for the month of June. We all enjoy seeing many faces at the meeting, renewing old friendships, and making new faces feel at home. If you're new in the village, this is a good time to come out, and see how your community grows. See you then? Whenever we want to express a clever thought, it always comes by slow freight. V. F. W. NEWS In reporting on the annual Department of Illinois V.F.W. convention held in Springfield, I do not have too many accurate details of the events. Saturday afternoon, the gigantic parade kicked off at 2 p!m. All drum and bugle corps units, color guards, drill teams and various marching units were participating in this parade, representing their home V.F.W. posts. Marching in the torrid heat and high humidity was V.F.W. post's 4600 Red Devils senior drum and bugle corps, all-girl color guard and post and 5th district color guard. Delayed and marred by intermittent showers, the parade still lived up to its tradition. Now! A special mention -- A citation was issued to our commander for 1961-62, namely, Howard W. Thomas, for an outstanding job as a post commander in the state of Illinois. A double honor was bestowed on Post 4600, as our post quartermaster, Gene Dobyns, also received a citation as a member of the all-state team of post quartermasters. These men and Post 4600 placed in second place behind Park Ridge V.F.W. Post 3579, among fourteen other Illinois posts. 1 Arthur Muller, Department of 111. commander who issued these citations, has visited our V.F.W. club in McHenry on several occasions and knows the job these officers and members do for |the organization and the people in our community. Your scribe feels very pleased to be a member of a V.F.V^ post which has received three top awards in one year from a department which has 545 posts. The award not heretofore mentioned was for tenth place in community service competition. Let's back our officers and organization this year for more recognization as the best little V.F.W. post in Illinois. j| Lo w Operating Cost.
