George Pfammatter and Pat Kitten, Mr.- and Mrs. Fred Pfammatter and children, Vic and Mike, John Pfammatter, Mrs. Clarence Sweeney and Mr. and Mrs. Bob Sweeney and boys, Bob and Jim. These First Communions are very appropriate gifts for the youngsters to present to their, mothers on their special day. Clean-Up Week Now that spring has finally come, it's time to start thinking of spring house cleaning. Those old bed springs, the unwanted chairs and any other items that have no further use in your home may be welcomed by the Salvation Army. The truck will come through the community on Saturday, May 19, to make collections. If you want, them to stop to pick up anything, place a large "S" in your window. At a later date, a special scavenger pick-up will take care of all the left over junk. This will give us all an opportunity to get the inside and outside of our houses in spic and span order. New Residents The robins are not daunted here in Lakeland Park by the shortage of trees. One industrious mother bird has been building her nest on a light fixture by the Floyd Leighs' front door. No eggs yet, but the Leighs are closing the door gently these days hoping not to disturb the mother.
