PAGE 8-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, Jl)LY 11, 1973 West Shore Beach McCullom Lake CONNIE SCHMIDT Local Community Ne&ds Recycling Education Each last Saturday of the month there is a glass and tin can recycling collection at the McHenry Market Place by the Women's Auxiliary of West Shore Beach. Many local residents have been bringing unusable materials. We will not accept glass or cans unless the proper methods of cleaning and crushing are carried out before they are brought to us. The following are a few simple rules to follow. All bottles must be washed or rinsed out and all metal removed. This includes metal rings left on the necks of many pop and liquor bottles. In addition all jar lids should be taken off the jars and placed with the crushed tin cans. The labels do not need to be removed from any glass. Clean broken window glass will also be accepted. Tin cans should also be washed or rinsed out with both ends removed and crushed inside the cans. The labels must be removed from all tin cans. We accept pop-top cans which include mostly beer or pop, however, they must be crushed and completely flattened. To do this use a hammer or similar object. Any aluminum cans will also be accepted. These are distinguished from the other pop-top cans by the lack of a seam on the side of the can. Please^ separate the all aluminum cans from the tin cans. Lastly, jar lids can be included with the tin cans if any cardboard or rubber is removed from the inside. This month three ladies of the Women's Auxiliary managed the entire operation. They were Beverly Johnson, Dolores Jaburek and Connie Schmidt. With the assistance of Carl Ritter, the help of Bill Moore, and the truck of Harold Johnson, the ladies were able to have a highly successful morning. Also Darin Jaburek and Jim Johnson greatly helped their moms. The collection was held from 9 a.m. until 12 p.m. with time for clean-up. The community has been asked to bring their materials by noon since the scale where the materials are weighed close at that time. The McHenry F.S. has been very cooperative and waits for us to bring in our last truck load. It will be a great help and save the workers a lot of un­ necessary time if the above rules are followed. Our next collection which coincides with the paper drive will be July 28. Try to start saving now and show your concern for a better environment. ASSOCIATION MEETING The West Shore Beach Property Owners will meet this Saturday, July 14, at the beach, weather permitting. Otherwise the meeting will be held at 5412 Orchardway Drive. See you at 4:30 p.m.! VANDALISM Residents be aware of any strangers or illicit behavior in 385-7841 our subdivision. The sheriff has asked for information to be brought in immediately if you spot any wrong doings. If a summer residence exists near your own home keep watch for vandalism and theft or ask the owners if you could be in charge while they are away. Your cooperation will certainly discourage foul play. 4-H PROJECTS Jim and Charlynda Johnson have been busy getting ready for the county fair in August. Jim has been training their dog Max through his attendance at obedience training sessions in Woodstock each week. Max, who is a Spitz, then learns new things each day for his final presentation at the fair. Charlynda is entering the sewing, knitting, crocheting and stitchery class that has taught her to make mittens this year using the knit-purl and cable stitches. Both are looking forward to winning blue rib­ bons. HOLIDAY FUN Many residents of West Shore Beach enjoyed attending the Legion carnival over the fourth weekend. Walking distance enabled everyone to stroll casually down the road. Some of the carnival goers included: Mr. and Mrs. Frank Besing, Mr. and Mrs. Ron Arthurs and their children, Mr. and Mrs. Budd Kidd, Sven Enarson, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Schmidt and their children, Steve Jeske and fiance, Linda Wilde, and Mrs. Dolores Jaburek and her children. And many more! PERSONALS Barb Truszkowski and her sister Grace will be vacationing in Poland this summer. This is their second trip and I'm sure they will have many details for everyone when they come back home in August. A very happy birthday to Martha Dignan who celebrated her day with our nation's in­ dependence, July 4. Please call me with any bit of news.

The total includes 4,197 undergraduate and professional degre<>s and 1,139 advanced degrees.

Nowak, 1502 W. Bav road, McHenry, Gerry Milbratz 385-8543 Tigers Defeat Girls Baseball Team, 26-16 In an exciting fight to the finish ball game, June 30, the McCullom Lake Sweethearts were defeated 26-16 by the Little League Tigers. The boys, confident at first of an easy victory, soon realized they were up against some very good players. The girls proved to be good hitters, and some excellent catches were made in the field. Roger Brand had to really bend down at times to pitch to some of the girls who were quite small. Youngest, and smallest player was 7 year old Beth Ann White who managed to get on base every time she was at bat. The Tigers got alot of home runs, in fact, most of their runs scored were homers. Cubs manager, Mark Hansen did a great job as catcher for both teams. Um­ piring at home plate was Bill Milbratz, Sr., who, luckily, is not too sensitive. Complaints of wrong calls and foul play were made by both teams. Umpire Tim Hocin, charged with favoring the Tigers, was replaced by Cinday Cun­ ningham, who was accused of favoring the Sweethearts. Time was called for almost l/2 an hour, in a dispute over in­ terference of the ball. But it was all in fun, and participants and spectators alike enjoyed the game. The kids have to be commended for their willingness to participate in community activities. All the Tigers, and ^about 20 girls showed up for the game. Since his team lost Don Milbratz had to furnish pop for them and Earl Kellers team, as agreed beforehand. LITTERING Village manager, Frank Kurth, has been getting complaints about junk being thrown in ditches. Bottles, cans and other garbage are tossed into the ditches, causing drainage and cleaning problems, besides looking terrible. Residents are advised to throw their garbage into garbage cans, and keep ditches clean. Also, Northern Pump Farms has been getting junk dumped on their property bordering the west end of the village. Owners have said they will prosecute anyone found littering their property. ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION In clebration of their seventh anniversary July 2, Glen and Donna Gates, went to a club in Bachelor of Science in Com­ merce and Business Ad­ ministration, Karen M. Schultz, 5721 Broadway, Rich­ mond, Bachelor of Science in Education; Elaine M. Speaker, 10215 William, Richmond, Bachelor of Science in Education and Margaret L. Gardner, 8214 N. Solon, Solon Mills, Bachelor of Science in Agriculture. Wisconsin for dinner and a show. With them were good friends Chuck and Janice Martin of Lakemoor. After a delicious dinner, and a fine show, featuring Peggy Lee, they went into the Bunny Hutch (what's that?) and danced till almost dawn. I don't think Donna will be in such good spirits in a few days from now. She is scheduled to enter Woodstock hospital to have her tonsils removed on Friday, July 13. Hope everything comes out all right. FAMILY GET-TOGETHER Mrs. Harriet McNamara spent a pleasant Fourth of July at the home of her son, Tom, and his wife, Charlotte, and their children, Nancy and Karen. Tom picked up Mrs. McNamara in the morning and drove her to his home in Des Plaines. Also present was her other son, Richard, his wife, Elaine, and their two youngest, Sue and Mary. A surprise to Mrs. McNamara was the arrival of old friends, Jean and Allen Sturm of Park Ridge, whom she hadn't seen for thirteen years. The family and friends had an outdoor barbecue, and later relaxed in the cool shade of Tom's beautiful screened porch. HOME IN GOOD COMPANY Enjoying the holiday at home were Jim and Pat Wyman of W. Parkview. Friends Bob and Jeanie Gildemeister, and Mike Nitszka stopped over for a visit. Later the group went to the tavern for awhile, so Jim could work. Somebody, (I won't say who) dropped a full drink on the floor, spilling contents and breaking glass. Afterwards the Wymans took their children to the carnival, where the generators kept going out on the rides. Outside of these little mishaps, everyone had a good time.

Best wishes to all. will have her evicted if she goes to visit an elderly male friend who's hospitalized and whom she's fond of. "Her greatest dread is that she become an obligation. Her sole support..Social Security. She deprives herself of necessities, to save the pennies, that become the dollars..which she's turned over to her son and daughter-in-law for safe keeping, as security against that rainy day. (which they've now confiscated and she can't retrieve) with the admonition she'd better turn over the remainder, if there is any, as an intruder could break in you know, with the adjoiner, 'By the way, how do you sleep nights?' (I shuddered at the im­ plication) .. and she didn't sleep too well that night. "Her tiny home is im­ maculate. She's paid for all renovations, installations, considerations, and such. They coldly pocket the coin without qualms, 'tho both are finan­ cially secure. No services are r e n d e r e d w i t h o u t remuneration, which she doesn't begrudge them. "But the situation s become intolerable. She can also now no longer hire whom she will, but is told explicitly which family member can perform specified tasks, with the exaction of a specified price., a $10 a month fee, which she cannot afford, but which she somehow manages to set aside.. (But no pay..no produce. ) and I see the worry furrows growing deeper .until the culmination came last night. "In the name of com­ passion--where has con­ sideration gone if life consists only of a dollar and cents evaluation? "Proverbs 3:27 Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, and when it is in the power of thine hand to do it. "(28) Say not unto thy neigh­ bor, Go and come again, and tomorrow I will give: when thou hast it by thee. t "It takes a heap o' living, before some learn, 'It's not what you've got, but what you are, that matters!' So let's make somebody happy while we can! Let's not drain the desire to live out o' life! "Because when you've lost enthusiasm..you've lost everything.

THINGS YOU MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT CONSERVING ELECTRICITY How an attic fan can take some of the load off your air conditioning. If you've ever been up in your attic on a summer day, you know how hot it gets. All that heat up there is what makes it so tough to cool the downstairs--even with air conditioning. Well, here's a hint: install an attic fan. An attic fan--whether it's at a window, gable vent or through the wall or roof--will pull that hot, dead air out of your attic. In fact, it can reduce your attic temperature by as much as 35 degrees. Your air conditioner doesn't have to work nearly as hard when it isn't fighting a hot attic. It doesn't switch on as often or run as long. You're just as comfortable, yet you're saving money. With an attic fan, you can also reduce the amount of air conditioning equipment you need. Contact your heating or air conditioning contractor for the attic fan installation that's best for your home. This hint is included in our booklet "101 Ways to Conserve Electricity at Home."
