Lakemoor-Lilymoor Area Margaret Karas 385-4934 Columnist Back To Work It was great going, but we are happy to be back. Bruno and I took a two-week jaunt through Illinois, Missouri and Arkansas, and saw some of the interesting, magnificent, beautiful parts of these areas. •< Nauvoo, our first stop, is rich with Illinois history. Then, on to Hannibal, Mo., "Where Mark Twain lives again". Seeing the ad­ ventures of Tom Sawyer in miniature, and actually walking' where young Sam Clemens grew up and going through his boyhood home, was really capturing a moment in history. , Fantastic Caverns at Springfield, Mo., was the next highlight, with beautiful mineral deposits. The history of this cave included a time when it was used as headquarters for the Ku- Klux-Klan, and as a speakeasy, with gambling during the days of prohibition. The Saunders Memorial museum in the little town oi\ Berryville, Ark., was a delight. The finest private gun collection, including some used by Jesse James, Billy the Kid and Annie Oakley, is here. Eureka Springs, Ark., is a place of beauty, in­ spiration and history. The giant statue of the "Christ of the Ozarks" was magnificent to see, as it stands on top of Magnetic Mountain. The Elna M. Smith foundation collection of over 7,000 bibles in 625 languages and 3,000 primitive manuscripts found in the Bible museum, makes one more aware of the magnitude of God. We spent a lovely warm sunny day in Murfreesboro, Ark., in the Crater of Diamonds State Park, sif­ ting through the dirt for a . diamond. Hot Springs are synonymous with baths, so we went to historic. Bathhouse Row, and spent two .luxurious hours being i bathed and massaged. I Several days were spent with former Lakemoor residents Ann and Paul Starzyk, who are now living near Prim, Ark. Fishing in Bull Shoals Lake and the White River was very negative in fish, but pleasant in scenery. Then on to say "Hello" to former Lilymoorites, Edye and Joe Fitts at Marion, 111. All is well there, with Joe busy at the VFW lodge, and Edye joining all the local clubs and busy with her beautiful handwork. Our last stop was in ' DeKalb, to visit with daughter Maribeth. She made a delicious dinner for us and fellow student Chris Goetschel of Johnsburg and surprise guest David Ed­ wards of Sunnyside. A happy ending to an interesting time • away from our Lakemoor Lilymoor area. SPOOK SUCCESS The "Spook House" was made up by members of the Lilymoor association, the Meyer, Crosswell, Gurske, Goodwin, Mentzer and Jones families. Jim Johnson supplied the location and also fun hay rides for the children.

That lovely creature who received the title of "Miss Mummy of 1961 (or was it 9810) was really Dottie Mentzer. Norm Croswell was the cutter-off of heads with his favorite toy, the guillotine. The head on the table was none other than Robert Gurske. Brother Anthony was Dracula, and father Skip was that horror with the chain saw called the "Chain saw Santa". Kathy Goodwin and Dawn Meyer were the witchiest of witches. Kary Goodwin was the master of the sword, none other than Zoro. The grizzly gorilla was Scott Meyer and Randy Jones was the ghost. The bake and ticket sales were handled by Phyllis Croswell, Laura Meyer, Mitzi Gurske and Nancy Hueckstaedt.

GOD BLESS New Telescope ForMCC PAG!. 5 • PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11,1M1 McHenry County college has a new telescope for use by its students .through the efforts of a college trustee and a county resident. The telescope, a 6-inch reflecting telescope with an _ . . ultra heavy duty mount, was TOD HOIlOr given to the McHenry » County College foundation by John R. Veugeler, and in turn donated to the college. College Trustee Anthony Montinl Named telescope in his home, un­ freezing the axes and Honor Students At At the end of the first quarter of study, Montini Middle school placed 59 students on its honor roll. To make the honor roll, a student must have a grade point average of 3.00 ("B") or better in the eight academic subjects. A 4.00 would represent a straight ("A") average. The top honor students cited are: 3.86, Michael Freund (grade 7); 3.75, Sharon Snow, Jennifer Freund, Bridgid Lean, Julie Stumpf, Julie Bowman, Tanja Nuhsbaum and Laura Yegge; 3.71, Susan Bassi; 3.50, Jennifer Tonyan, Mary Kate Winn, Carol Masulunes and Susan Sharp. replacing the mirror with one from an old MCC telescope which Wujcik described as "something less than desirable." He then painted the fiberglass tube and added the MCC logo. Wujcik explains that the refurbished telescope has unusually heavy duty mounts which will keep it from vibrating while students use it for observing the stars and planets. In addition to finding the telescope and arranging for its donation, Wujcik has been pursuing having an observatory for astronomy classes included in future plans for the college cam­ pus. He said the observatory could be located on top of a college building. Wujcik is involved in forming a local or college affiliated club for astronomy enthusiasts. MCC will offer an astronomy course again in the summer of 1982. * • * • A new idea is the poison to some minds that refuse to be educated. • • * * Definition: Self-control --something we tell our children they should have.
