PARK AND BEACH The raft has been put out in the lake by the young people of the community. Please don't let anyone abuse the privilege. Last year it had to be taken out because it was damaged. It has been reported that there is quite a lot of garbage left down in the park and beach area. It is so much nicer to be able to go down there and enjoy this area when it is clean of cans, papers and broken glass. So when you leave the park, please throw away all garbage in the available containers. It is taken away every Monday.

Also home for a six day leave was our daughter, Cathy, who is with the Air Force. APOLOGY I am very sorry that a resident of our village had to call the Plaindealer about a missing article in the column, but a phone call to me after five in the evening will end that chance of me not getting the message. If the party that called will call me again I will be quite happy to report anybody's news. As I said before I cannot keep the column going if I have nothing to put in the paper.

Paralyzed Vets Start Post Rummage Pickup The Paralyzed Veterans of America (Vaughan chapter) Thrift Stores have initiated Operation-Post Rummage Sale Pickup. The paralyzed vets, who operate nine Thrift Stores throughout Chicagoland, have instituted a program in w^iich they will pick up, free of charge, the remainder of rummage sale articles from church bazaars, book sales, etc., which are unsold and in good condition for resale in their nine Chicago retail centers. "Many times after a church or other organization ha& a rummage sale, there remain unsold articles which are thrown away because these organizations are unaware of the PVA services," explained Ron Ross, PVA development director. The PVA Thrift Stores request only that rummage sale organizers place unsold articles in good condition in bags or boxes to facilitate quicker and more efficient pickup service and call the PVA Hotline Pickup Number at least two weeks in advance. The PVA retail centers, which are members of the Chicago Association of Com­ merce and Industry and the Better Business Bureau, operate nine retail centers for the economically disad­ vantaged families of Chicago and for people who are just "looking for bargains." The PVA feels that this free pickup of unsold goods will provide a great service to the community while helping many of Chicago's paralyzed and handicapped individuals. Proceeds from the salg of this merchandise will be used for P.V.A.'s research, service and education programs to aid not only paralyzed veterans but also non-veteran paraplegics and handicapped. Anyone wishing to arrange for a free pickup involving Operation-Post Rummage Sale Pickup may call Ron Ross, 344- 8214, or write Paralyzed Veterans of America, 32 West Farewell Luncheon Honors Two SECTION 2 - PAGE 7 - PLAINDEALER-WKDNESDAY.
