STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD Johnsburg Library Plans Numerous Spring Events March and April will be eventful months at the Johnsburg district library.

All makeup will be provided and parents are invited to bring their cameras. Because space is limited, there is only room for 50 children, so advance registration is required.

There is no limit on the number who may come, but it is necessary to know how many balloons to get. PACKING FOR ATRIP Here are a few tips that should make your traveling easier and help you look your best. Pack firmly, as loose packing allows clothing to move about and wrinkle easily. Pack the heaviest articles on the bottom of the bag (in carrying position) and distribute the weight evenly, making it easier to carry. Pack shoes in plastic bags to keep your clothing clean. Stuff socks inta shoes to save space and help keep shoes in shape. If you haven't a hanging garment bag, fold jackets flat with buttons open and layer trousers in with the jacket to prevent crease lines. Carry personal grooming aids in a separate kit and if you're traveling by air, put it in a "carry-on" bag. In case your luggage is misplaced, at least you'll have the essentials. Library Building Ground Breaking Gold (painted) shovels were on hand to be used by persons respon­ sible for the long anticipated library building that will become an actuality in the summer of 1963. President Frank Colomer of the McHenry Nunda Public Library District Board of Trustees was one of the diggers, along with building committee chairman James Adams and builder Walter Frett. Treasurer of the Board, Karen Colomer " and librarian Margaret Karas were the official witnesses of the ground breaking. The lots are now cleared of trees and debris, and there are daily changes with the various stages of excavating and building. After 20 years, the library district will finally have a permanent home which will be a source of great satisfaction and pride to all of us. VEHICLE STICKERS OVERDUE Vehicles in Lakemoor which do not display the 1983 stickers, show that owners are in arrears in purchase of same. The deadline was Feb. 28. An additional fine of 50 cents will be added for every month overdue. The money from sticker sales goes towards the costs of maintaining village roads. The operation of an automotive vehicle also means taking a share of the costs of maintaining what those vehicles drive on. Carry your share and buy your village sticker now. A MEMORIAL Earl H. Sand, a resident of Lakemoor for over 40 years, died Feb. 16, leaving his dear wife, three grandchildren and one great-grand­ child. He had worked for Oak Manufacturing, retiring 12 years ago. He and his wife lived quietly, enjoying the fruits of their labors. Tbey were among those homeowners near Lily Lake who were residents before Lakemoor was incorporated, and had memories of the "Beautifying Club" that helped with problems in the area at that time. Mr. Sand had been in a nursing home for six months prior to his death, caused by pneumonia. Per his request no services were held, except those in the hearts of his loved ones. Mrs. Sand appreciates the kindnesses shown to her, and the expressions of sympathy extended by neighbors and friends. PICKUP TRUCK PICKED UP Has anyone seen a grey Chewy pickup truck in the vicinity of Waukegan? Maggie Dunnagan had hers parked in the Lakehurst parking lot Mar. 1. She had enjoyed a nice dinner at the Mexican restaurant, but on emerging, it was heartburn time. No truck. The police gave Maggie a drive around the lot in hopes of finding it, but all to no avail. Maggie, on the advice of co-workers at Chroma corporation, may put an ad in the Waukegan paper: "Will person who stole Chewy pickup truck in Lakehurst parking lot, please pick up the snow plow that went with it, which is still in my yard? Please call, but not collect." COMMUNITY HEALTH REPORTS Lisa Hibbs was missing from her classes at East campus for several days, the result of foot surgery at the McHenry hospital.

It has been a bad winter for many people. But spring is coming-or is it here now? The March lamb has come in--will it leave us with a foot of snow on the 31st? Wishes for good health go to all who have been below par. PONYTALE OR PONYTAIL? Fourth-grader Michael Kunz will forever remember that word. Michael was in the National Spelling Bee in Robert Crown school in Wauconda, and this was the word that resulted in a fourth place award. Three girls, two fifth-graders and one third-grader, went on to win in the contest, but at least Michael was the last male representative.
