t i PAGE 5-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 11, 1984 Lakemoor/Lilymoor: LUCKY CAUSES A SCENE McCullom Lake* A runaway dog caused great excitement in the parking lot at the McHenry Nunda Library Dec. 30. Sam Sances,'on foot, was calling "Lucky", a man in a pick up truck pulled in and gave chase. The driver of a station wagon stopped and she and a young girMried to -catch Lucky, \ who thought; all this attention was the best game around. Margaret Karas 385-4934 i •' / Lorry Deeke, library assistant, who has an inborn affinity for animals, was wat­ ching and decided it was time to help. She went outside, squatted down on the library ramp and Lucky, spotting the open arms, practically jumped into Lorry's lap. Sam returned to his car parked on Lily Lake Rd. and 120, backed into the parking lot, just missing an oncoming green truck, and almost getting stuck in a snow bank, opened his car door, and Lucky happily jumped in. Sam had not been so lucky, however, as this all started when another motorist had banged into his car as he was driving to the gas station to get some milk. As Sam opened his car door to talk to the other motorist, Lucky took off. Sam got him back in the car and continued on his mission. At the stop sign at 120, Sam had to open the car door-and away went Lucky again. Sam never did get his milk that second to last day of 1983. All this excitement was just too much to take in one morning, especially when one has lived through 92 years. PNEUMONIA John Kmetz, Betty and Bill's youngest son, was one of the many youngsters who developed pneumonia this past month. He hadn't been feeling too well, but went to school anyway as there were only six more days before Christmas vacation. On the 15th his parents took him to the doctor, who admitted John to the hospital immediately. IV's were started and he was in an oxygen tent. Four days later John was able to come home, but is still feeling the after effects of the severe case of pneumonia. During all this cold worrisome time, Bill and Betty had only one car operating, requiring a lot of scheduling for Bill to get to work, the hospital visits, and the still uncompleted Christmas shopping. Mike, John's brother, is still home from his school in Wisconsin, and has been a big help with the "preparation for Christmas and helping the time of recuperation pass more quickly for John, n REMEMBER Jan. 12--Lakemoor Village meeting, 8 p.m. Jan. 13--Story time feff pre- s c h o o l e r s - - 1 0 : 3 0 a . m . , McHenry Nunda Library-Call 385-6303 for information.

Ah, to be 81 again, says dear friend Myldred Rowe of Lakemoor, as her eighty-second year is recognized on Jan. 14. Myldred does not mind bir­ thdays, for as our number one daughter Maggie D. says, "What's the alternative to having a birthday?"... May your eighty-second year be one of warmth, health, and the love of friends and family, dear Myldred. You have given so much to so many these many years, not the least of which is the many feet and hands you have warmed with your hand­ made slippers and mittens given to the Willing Workers in McHenry. May the Lord grant you the strength to always go forward with your indomitable spirit. GOD BLESS FISHING DERBY THIS JAN. 21-22 Wonder Lake: SURVEYORS AT WORK ON HANCOCK DR.

They left the school at 3:45 for Lake Geneva and returned at 9 p.m. A mixed group of the very beginners to the more advanced enjoyed a warm evening of sking pleasure. Lessons were included for the students to take advantage of. It was fun listening to one of the first-time skiers telling of his experience of falling down face first on the tow rope, dropping his poles half way down a hill and trying to retrieve them, falling off a lift, and then adding, "And some of the kids think 'War, Peace' program is Jan. 15 On Sunday, Jan. 15, from 7 to 9:30 p.m., - in St. Patrick's hall, there will be a presen­ tation on the pastoral letter on "War and Peace," - written by the U n i t e d S t a t e s Catholic Bishops.
