PARTY KNOWN Last week a window was broken in the post office down town, this is being destructive. Foul language has been seen written on buildings. And to those who use public entrances as urinals are very uncouth persons and it so happens that this has happened down town and this person is known. Soooo don't you think you had better mend your habits. SQUARE DANCERS There are two new couples in town who are taking lessons with the Checker Board squares. They are Larry and Darlene Lehmkuhl »and Dick and Jackie Crosby, and I guess they are having a ball. Last week the teacher decided that they were so good that he had them dancing in the dark. Other club members from last year's class were able to earn a Glo-Worm badge at this time if they willed. Next year at Halloween time the Lehmkuhls and the Crosbys will be ab)2 to do the same when the new class (which you could be a part of) gets to be good enough to dance in the dark. ABOUTTOWN Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Horn and family of Elmhurst visited ift the , Dennis Rich home on Sunday afternoon of this last week. Mr. and Mrs. Carl Betts and Mr. and Mrs. Rich Gillespie went off square dancing last Friday night. There were other club members from McHenry who went also. Heard they had lots of fun.
