"The card provides space for listing medication being taken. allergies and the existence of other medical problems, such as diabetes or epilepsy," Dixon said.

NATAL DAYS Val Nothnagel, hostess with the mostest, entertained Bluebird friends at a slumber party given in her honor. The girls enjoyed each other's company til the wee hours of the morning. Even an evening of playing party games and feasting on the traditional ice cream and cake couldn't produce any sleepy misses. All it took was a few well chosen words by mom Lisa and all the girls were off in dreamland. Happy birthday to another member of our younger set - Lisa Poco who celebrated her sixth birthday March 25. Family, friends, and neigh­ borhood children added to the fun and games to make it a truly festive occasion.

SUNNYSOUTH The Magic Kingdom of Disney world was only a part of the magic vacation that Tom and Gaile Misiak and their sons, Christopher and Michael, recently returned from. Gaile's shorn, Ronnie* Beaty * Milwaukee, accompanied the Misiak family to Florida and she and her two grandsons experienced their first airplane flight together. While at Disneyworld, they stayed at the Polynesian village for four days, hopping the mono rail for their trips to the Magic Kingdom, the Contemporary, and River country. Some of their ad­ ventures included an evening luau at the village, sailboat and speedboat riding, a five-minute slide trip into Lake Buena Vista and an impressive look at a killer whale at Sea World. From Orlando they went to Sarasota, Fla., for three relaxing days of fun at the beach. By chance, the actually "rubbed elbows" with two Yankee baseball players in a Sarasota restaurant. Leaving this land of fresh squeezed orange juice and 80 degrees weather, they returned to the shores of Wonder Lake with beautiful sun tans and memories to last a lifetime. BIRTHDAYS Happy seventeenth birthday to a special young lady, Julie Huff, April 5. Happy birthday to Karl Rindt April 8. Happy fourteenth birthday to Billy Firnbach April 8. Happy fifth birthday to Michelle Brisinte April 9. Happy days to all of you! TIMELY TOPIC With March's weather coming in like a lion, the Wonder Lake Garden club nevertheless had one of its most fascinating programs at the lovely home of Mrs. Helen GillUand. We were privileged to have William Howenstine of McHenry as our guest speaker, apply assisted by his son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Chuck Howenstine. To illustrate the use of solar energy, a timely topic, Mr. Howenstine used beautiful slides from around the world. We tend to think of using the sun for a source of energy as a relatively new device instead of understanding its complete use in ancient civilizations. When you hang your clothes outside or make "sun tea" or dry fruits, vegetables and seeds, to the more sophisticated collectors harnessing heat for home, you are using the sun in harmony with nature and your life. Our deepest gratitude to the Howenstines for their most informative talk. Our next meeting will be Thursday, April 13, at the home of Mrs. Mickey Mettille, 7621 North drive, Wonder Lake, at 8 o'clock in the evening. B. Alderson, publicity chairwoman CHURCH NEWS The Church council of Nativity Lutheran church is sponsoring a smorgasbord dinner Saturday, April 22, with servings at 5, 6 and 7 p.m. Tickets can be obtained from church members.

Baptized at Nativity during March were Tamara Lynn Motel, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joel Motel, and Robert Andrew Johnson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Mark Johnson; also Joel Motel by adult baptism.
