Job's t)at\ghte ioooooopiOOOououflDuood Two events have recently taken place at Bethel 98,- In­ ternational Order of Job's Daughters, which will draw to a close Lynn Tomlinson's term as honored queen. A bit of Christmas cheer was spread when members of this group attended the Eastern Star home in Rockford. The girls spent time touring the home, talking with many of the ladies and especially in giving holiday wishes to Mrs. Katherine Parrish, who was the adopted grandmother of this Bethel in 1969. This lady was 94 years old on Christmas Day. The girls passed out Christmas boots to each resident. These colorful boots were packed with many useful items and had been prepared following one of the recent* Bethel meetings. Many ex­ pressions of gratitude were exchanged along with warm wishes for the holiday season and the New Year. During the final meeting before Lynn retired from of­ fice, she performed the - initiation ceremony while in­ ducting Lynn Gomoll, daughter of Kay and William Gomoll of Spring Grove. Everyone welcomed Lynn. The queen's report was read. It is customary for each honored queen to prepare a resume of her term just prior to the installation of the new of­ ficers. Lynn's report recalled many of - the major events, expressed thanks to her of­ ficers and guardians for all their help and cooperation, and stated her personal feelings about goals that were her guidelines through the term. This report will be placed on file with other Bethel history. Barb Bradley, the incoming honored queen, read her list of officers, announced plans for installation and events that will begin the thirtieth term of Bethel 98 in McHenry.

He entered the Tips For The Homemakei Did you over spend this year? On what did you overspend - food, clothing, recreation or what? Now is an excellent time to make budget resolutions. The Illinois Family Account Book can help you keep a check on them during the New Year. Produced by the University of Illinois Cooperative Extension Service, it contains sufficient room to record income, ex­ penditures under twelve categories, charge accounts, saving and interest, taxes, life insurance policies, and room for year end as well as monthly summaries. Many families arrive at income tax reporting time with no records or very few and incomplete records of their expenditures. If that is part of your problem, with an aid such as the family accoimlbook and a few minutes montnly work, you can cut down on the dreaded job and confusion at income tax time. Pat Sullivan at the McHenry County Cooperative Extension Service office (Farm Bureau building, Woodstock) will be happy to tell you more about and show you the Illinois family account book which sells for a nominal fee.

The money is needed to pay for the new museum. All the banks and savings and loan companies in the county are being interviewed, asking if they wish to participate in extending a loan of $2,000 each. However, this is taking time and the final papers are not yet ready. There are twenty-one such firms in the county and if each loan goes through, the society will have $42,000 with which to work. It also makes for county-wide interest and participation. They wilihold a first mortgage on the pnfjJertv that has been appraised\ at $60,000 before improvements. The first of the loans will be used to pay the Union school board for the property, $20,000. The next expenditure will be to create an apartment for a custodian.
