PAGE 18 - PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, APRIL It, 1174 Lakeland Park Anne Moore 385-6448 Many Residents Enjoy Easter Festivities Many residents especially enjoyed their Easter weekend this year. While it was impossible for me to contact all of you, I did receive some "tips" as to how a few families spent their weekend and Easter Sunday. Ron and Anny Arthurs found themselves entertaining at their home for the weekend. Roger and Ingrid Auburn and their daughters, Janet and Allison, arrived from Chicago on Friday evening and stayed through Easter Sunday. Jay, Eric and baby Doug Arthurs enjoyed all the excitement and all of the children especially had fun on the Easter egg hunt the parents arranged, with the help of the Easter Bunny, of course, for the children when they returned home from church services on Easter morning. Anny said they all had a fun weekend! Lester and Mary Dobbins were pleased to entertain guests in their home. Their son, Lowell, brought his sons, Michael and Tom, to see their grandparents from Rolling Meadows on Friday night. They all enjoyed a delicious fish fry dinner along with Mr. and Mrs. Harold Dobbins and Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Dobbins of Arlington Heights. After dinner they returned to the Dobbins' home and played some card games. Les and Mary spent Easter Sunday with Mary's cousin and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Foote of Libertyville. And, 1 heard they • all enjoyed their delicious Easter dinner. John, Sharon and Jay Gacek headed for the southside of Chicago Easter Sunday morning. They visited with John's folks, Mr. and Mrs. Bielawski, and from there they drove to the home of Sharon's folks, Mr. and Mrs. DeSilva, on the north side of Chicago. Little Jay enjoyed himself finding surprises at each home from the Easter Bunny, and John and Sharon had a fun day also! Mr. and Mrs. Tom Krak and their daughters, Natalie and Rochelle, spent Easter weekend in Chicago where they visited with Tom's parents, and had a marvelous weekend! Patt and Judy Patterson and their four children Matt, Mark, Melody and Michelle, journeyed to Kokomo, Ind., for Easter weekend. Sue Volz and her children, Debbie and Denny, went along and enjoyed visiting with Patt and Judy's relatives. They all spent Easter Sunday at Judy's sister's home and enjoyed the delicious dinner Lonita and Richard Williams had waiting for them. From what Judy told me they all had a marvelous weekend in Indiana. Vern and Marcella Raiford visited their daughter, Lois, and her husband, Allan Wilkening, at their home, along with Lois' great-aunt, Mrs. Willie Meyers, on Easter Sunday. From there they were off to Harvard to Allan's parents home where they enjoyed a delicious Easter dinner prepared by Allan's mom, Ruth, with the help of his dad, Clarence, of course. Their sons, Donald and Dennis, were there as was Ruth's sister and her family, Irene and Don Voegler, and their sons from Palatine. Everyone had a most enjoyable visit and had fun at this family get-together. Larry and Mary Alice Sword and their sons, Mark, Todd and Scott, had guests in their home on Easter Sunday. Mary Alice served a delicious ham dinner to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. George O'Connor of Wonder Lake, to her brother and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Terry O'Connor of Woodstock, and to Debbie and Bobby Jones of Chicago. And, from what I heard everyone had a fun visit at the Sword home. Jerry and Penny Treadwell enjoyed another delicious dinner at their home with their daughters, Susan and Patty. Penny prepared turkey with all the trimmings and the girls were thrilled with their Easter presents. Dick, Beverly and Linda Walinski spent a quiet Easter Sunday at their home and enjoyed another delicious dinner, such as only Bev could prepare. Linda was happy the Easter Bunny brought her such fun things and they all enjoyed their day together. Mike and Sue Wallace and their children, Craig and Kimmy, spent a few days at Winona Lake, Ind., including Easter Sunday. They visited Sue's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Leo ^Bujak and her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Byrer, and saw many other relatives while they were in Indiana. They had a fun visit and always enjoy these family get-togethers especially for such a special holiday as Easter. Jerry and Elaine Worth and their pretty daughters, Stephanie and Jennifer, went to a local restaurant for their Easter dinner this year, along with Elaine's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Willard Nelson. While everyone enjoyed their dinners, the girls especially enjoyed hunting for Easter eggs provided by the restaurant. Everyone had a marvelous day and both mothers were glad they didn't have to cook! Steve and I drove into Chicago and joined his parents, Steve and Anna, for dinner. Steve's sister Diana was home from Macomb, 111., and his Aunt Kate Thomas, and Aunt Lill and her husband, Joyve Johnson, joined us for a delicious turkey dinner. Our children Kevin, Brian, and Suzanne were very excited to hunt for all the goodies the Easter Bunny left for them. From there we went to Rosemont where we visited my sister and her family. Ron and Pat entertained our folks, John and Blanche Blaney, and my sister, Mary, as well as Ron's parents, Pete and Mary Lechman, for the day. Again the children found numerous presents from the Bunny. Little Christie Anne was excited to play with her cousins and we all had a pleasant visit.

Sewage Treatment Operations Result In Some Problems A growing number of towns throughout Illinois are improving their sewage treatment operations, but in doing so are finding a related pollution problem - disposing of the sludge that is formed at the sewage treatment plants. The Illinois Environmental Protection agency wants to help those communities find economical and effective methods of disposing of that sewage sludge, according to Richard H. Briceland, EPA director. "The sludge is simply the solid waste matter that settles out of the sewage in the w a s t e w a t e r t r e a t m e n t process," Briceland said. "Some communities have been burning the sludge, but now, with the projected shortage of low-cost fuels to burn the material, many communities are looking for other, more economical ways to dispose of it," Briceland said. The sludge also is being buried in sanitary landfills by some communities, Briceland said, but space in such landfills is rapidly becoming more John is enjoying coming home to two pretty ladies these days!

The sludge task force, which includes members of the Illinois EPA staff and r e p r e s e n t a t i v e s o i communities and oi agricultural groups, is expected to make specific recommenda tions on how the sludge can best be utilized. "The sewage sludge is rich in nutrients, and now, when our Illinois farmers are finding commercial fertilizers more difficult and more expensive to obtain, we hope farmers will take an objective look at the possibility of using some sludge as fertilizer." He said the sludge could be spread on the ground, or knifed under the ground, depending upon the amount applied Similar techniques for disposing; Of the WWagK ati. used throughout Europe, he said. .
