PAGE 8 - PI. \I\DE M-ER-WEDNESDAY, IVfARCH 5. 1975 RILOXl HISTORIC LIGHTHOUSE AND SHRIMP TOUR TRAIN Goodbye To Ocean Springs We got settled down in town and now it is time to leave. When you occupy new quarters even for a few months you want so many things. Our walls were bare; we needed a few pictures. I got three from the Keesler field library. I have returned them. The bare places are back again. One was a copy of ORNAMENTAL IRON Railings-Columns Custom Fabricating Welding & Structur al Frozen Pi )e Thawing STEEL oALES ADAMS BROS. (Next to Gem Cleaners) 3006 W. Rte. 120 Phone: MeHenry 385-0783 Monet's Lake of Argenteull. It was brilliant with greens and blues. This morning, alas there is just a hook where the painting hung. 1 have given notice to take out the phone after we leave; stop the electric power; get a clearance from Keesler field. This means I've paid for the meals we've eaten at the Of­ ficer's club. This helps keep your credit good. It has been a pleasant ex­ perience to get acquainted with Young America as represented by the people who live in our apartment complex. They are from the Air Force, both of­ ficers and men (and women). Many young men from Ingall's ship yard who work one of their three shifts, live here. They tell me it takes an hour to drive the 18 miles over, get parked, get clearance and move to the job. .New destroyers and flat tops for the Navy are under con­ struction. The local papers have been full of news that the Shah of Iran is seeking to buy American destroyers. He would have to do this through the U.S.' Navy but the ships would be built at Ingall's by American labor. That means jobs. Therefore the whole Gulf Coast is interested. If people have jobs, they buy food, clothing, pay rent and do not collect unemployment checks. Any community likes this -- so the papers cover the ship yards heavily. We try to use our groceries right up to the last little bit. The "balancing of the grocery in­ ventory" takes thought. You are invited here and there, you do not want to buy what you will not eat. Sometimes you get caught with little in the larder and have to eat out. This is no problem-we like to eat out. You get so many surprises (both ways). I hate to leave our little "parish" of blessed and holy folk at Keesler field. We are a "make do" congregation. They are often the best kind to have. They are small on things and long on love. There are fewer resources and more ap-. preciation of each other. It seems impossible that spring is so far advanced. The willows, their short winter snooze past, are soft and yellowish in their tender spring leafing. Camellias are still in bloom but the azaleas have, taken the gardens by storm. Everywhere they riot in warm colors and in all sorts of shades, sizes and forms. Even now some wisteria is blooming. Shortly the gardenia will send their pervasive bouquets of sweetness out in a variety no TV advertising agency could describe. In the gardens the narcissi have come and gone, a few rare tulips have extended their showy palettes. Calen­ dulas are standing erect in surprise hellos. Hydrangia are in the wings waiting their spring cue. There are wildflowers, new to us, that even Rose does not know. Generally she knows the names of all sorts of wood flowers and can recount their names, their personal likes and dislikes. Some plants will grow ANYWHERE while others observe nature's strict zoning regulations. It's fun to make new friends! We won't go into the "cry of the turtle being heard in the land" but the sound of tuning motors is upon us. Young Air Force personnel, both officers and men (even WAFS) are tuning up their transportation after the "winter". I had forgotten how young men love an engine; take it apart and put it together; clean it and polish the finish; let it roar; muffle hef down. You expect the new military to be able to handle machinery. The old cavalry were everlastingly grooming their transportation. Our time in Mississippi is ended. We are sorry to leave but new vistas call. The road has new turns and fresh horizons. Our Illinois friends have written. The Bob Foys of Whispering Oaks and Norman Wonder Lake Mary Jean Huff 728 0267 Little League Registration At Firehouse Mar. 10 All parents of children who will be playing in Little League this year or who are interested in Little League are urged to attend a meeting of the Wonder Lake Boys' Baseball on Monday evening, March 10.

BIRTHDAY GREETINGS A special happy birthday to Verona Huff of Richmond on March 7. Congratulations, Grandma, you are now a Septugenarian! Another special birthday greeting to a little lady who was a teenager at the turn of the century, has been a resident of Wonder Lake for 36 years and Cram of Kenilworth have called and given us the local news back home. Mr. Cram stayed two nightk He has his sleeping with him in his trailer. Yesterday we had another fine sea food meal, broiled flounder cooked after you order it. I've eulogized Biloxi's seafood but we were in a very clean place a block out in the water, unpretentious, well run Curtains were of sailcloth. Coots and anhingas were fishing a few feet away. Winter is on the run - a few more friends to see and then we will see all of you in MeHenry. (by Father William O. Hanner, rector emeritus of Holy Comforter church, Kenilworth Episcopal.)

Ecumenical Choir Clinic Set March 16 Checking telephone books and calling county church choir directors are activities oc­ cupying the attentions of Betty Leslie, Eva Wedel and Marie Ann Vos. They are chairing the March 16 and March 23 ecumenical choir clinic segment of the county-wide conductor-in-residence pro­ gram. Any county church choir director who has been overlooked and who is in­ terested in participating in or observing a clinic is urged to contact Mrs. Albert J. (Betty) Leslie, 316 Fleming, Wood­ stock. St. Mary's Catholic church in Woodstock is the site of the Sunday, March 16 clinic. On Sunday, March 23, the clinic will be at Crystal Lake's First Congregational church. Both Home gardeners who plant their "old favorites" year after year may be missing the ad­ vantages of new and improved varieties, says George Young, MeHenry county Extension adviser with the University of Illinois. Many of the new vegetable varieties and hybrids combine disease resistance with plant vigor and top quality. Home gardeners interested in learning more about vegetable gardening, including varieties recommended for use this year, will want to attend a gardening information meeting March 10 from 7 to 9 p.m., at the Courtroom Gallery in the old courthouse on the Square in Woodstock, says Young. Reservations are needed and there is a charge per family per evening. Bill Courter and Joe Van- demark, University of Illinois Extension vegetable crops specialists, will discuss disease-resistant varieties, via TeleNet - a leased telephone communication system. Young recommends persons planning to attend the session call the Extension office at 338- 3737 or 338-4747. Whether you are a gardening novice or an expert, this garden meeting has something for you, notes Young. '** The next gardening in­ formation meeting will be March 17 from 7 to 9 p.m., at the Courtroom Gallery. Roscoe Randell, Extension en­ tomologist, Barry Jacobsen, Extension plant pathologist, and Herb Hopen, Extension vegetable crop specialist, will discuss non-chemical and chemical means of vegetable garden pest control.
