Help! Help! We are still in need of more news than we have been getting. With Carla \as my partner we should be abie^to handle twice as much news as we have been able to get. How about giving us a call. No matter how smay ' it may seem it's news and it's interesting reading to those who know you and live in your community. PTA News Why not plan to attend the January meeting of the Johnsburg PTA to be held next Tuesday, Jan. 21. Dr. Peter Griesbach from the McHenry Medical Center will be the guest of the evening and will speak on the theme "Our children look to us for better health." It promises to be an interesting eve- Serious Situation The packs of dogs running loose in the community has become a disturbing and serious situation to most of us. Each week the complaints pour into your reporters about the dogs hoping we can help. Garbage cans are knocked down, tied dogs attacked and lawns and shrubs damaged. Many have threatened to shoot any stray dogs as a last resort. Perhaps this is not a wise solution but people will "jjo,t keep their dogs tied ancT~we get no cooperation from the county authorities. Our deputies cannot take a dog away without a signed complaint and the signer must pay the fee if . the owner is not known. Naturally if we know the owner of a loose dog the best thing to do would be $o call and tell them to get them tied, up or a deputy will be called and they will be charged a fine plus a • license if none is had. This is' not usually done since it 'does not make for good neighbor relations but it seems a much better way than reaching for a gun. So please if you own a dog keep him tied for his good and your own and your neighbors. We'd hate to see any dead pets but that is going to be the result if something isn't done now. After thatvacation in Florida with her family. "Debbie DOljecki had a few. friends in for hot dogs last Thursday on the occasion n of her fifth birthday. Happy birthday to Stanley Wroblewski who celebrated last week and admits to being at least a little over twenty-one. We hope he has many more. Now Mr. Mumps is just about gone scarlet fever seems to be taking his place. There have been a few cases in the community already and it can be serious if not taken care of so watch for any symptoms such as red rashes or blotches, vomiting and a high fever. Hospitalized We are very sorry to report that Albert Corhrs was taken to St. Therese hospital last week with a heart condition and pneumonia. He was quite ill and at last report will be there at least four weeks-so I'm sure that any cards from his friends and neighbors would speed his recovery along. We wish him the very best and hope his recovery is fast and that he will be back in the immunity again soon. ofc^e^rag^l«fa»|ier?a^jEw the road than it usjed- to be. ^ " The Pan Cinftnus are, very, hag* py. about that ipanking brand neWj cair they are sporting arouhd. Still on the sick list ift Kip; Novotny who is having a rough time with a cold and the ffti;; • Garbage Cans There have been a good many complaints lately about the' people who leave their garbage cans in fronts of their house all week. I think we will all agree that if everyone did this it would n6t make a very scenic or well kept community. It is "little things like this that add up to make a slumlike neighborhood which I'm sure none of us want to live in. Have You Noticed the new main road is under way? It is in the process of being widened and raised and will be blacktopped by the county in the spring. This has not been accomplished overnight but has nfng for all with social time and J been started as the result of many refreshments after the business road committee meetings and meeting and program. Every parent and interested person is cordially invited to attend their PTA meetings each month and get an opportunity to meet the teachers and discuss any problems with them. We HI see you promptly at 8 o'clock, Okay? many complaints over the past year or so about our roads. This will not include our side road problems but it is a good start since we all must use the main road to enter the subdivision. The Snow Is Fine Now that the snow is here the hills are fine for sledding and tobogganing and even skiing if you go to one of the shoyeled areas. We could do with a few more shovels with strong backs to push them though since the clear areas aren't too large. Come on you hockey players we're waiting for thai game. ' ' Caution Motorists With the sledding season in full swing we would like to warn all 'motorists in the subdivision to please watch out for the children on sleds. Perhaps it is true that the roads are not the place for sledding but then this is the country and the temptation is great. Remember we did the same things when we were younger so let's be on the lookout for those small fry -and let them enjoy the winter and being young too. Sick List We're sorry to hear that Glen Hayner has been sick with scarlet fever and his daddy Roy has been home for the past two weeks with the flu and a bad cough. We hope they are both better and back to normal by now. Ray Novotny has been on the sick list lately too with the flu and an ear infection. Ray, Jeff, Kip and the whole family went into the clinic for multiple treatment of their colds and such. Also home from school with the measres recently was Randy Jackson. He is well now and we hope he had a very happy birthday. Two of the Ray Thelen children had their tonsils out last week and even though they probably didn't enjoy the whole thing recuperating can be fun when it includes ice cream and chewing gum. Or has the treatment changed since I was young? Down Meadow Land Everyone down on Meadow lane reports that they too are very fed up with the packs of dogs that are running loose. They find that those who do ,the most complaining about other dogs running let theirs run loose the most. Gordon Rzechula is very happy to be discharged from the service and is busy working at his job. on the railroad. Kenny Krumwiede will celebrate his second birthday on Jan. 14. We wish him a very happy day. George Brusen of Broadway is very busy putting in a cement sidewalk to combat the mud. The snow stopped him for awhile but he hopes to get at it again soon. The people living near Meadow and Broadway have suggested that a sign warning motorists of children playing would be a very good idea since that hill is about the best and most used for sledding in the subdivision. During the Holidays Pearl Smolinski and her daughter, Darlene, Barbara Beamer, a friend of Darlene's, went to Genoa Wis. Also enjoying the trip were Mary Stanek of Richmond, and Myrtle Stanek of Spring Grove. A very delicious lunch and a good time was had by all.

LUEDTKE BROTHERS, Owners FIRST NATIONAL BANK of WOODSTOCK, Clerking ' Member Federal Reserve System Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Catholic loyalty to the Pope is the cause of never-ending amazement to many non-Catholics. They wonder how an exclusively spiritual leader can command die devotion of nearly four hun- * dred millions of, people. They cannot explain why this vast religious family... representing every race, color, language and political belief on the face of the earth ... lives and grows through the ages, while man-made empires have their day of glory and then disr appear. What is there about this one man that causes people to speak of him in a hundred tongues as "Holy Father"? We find the answer, of course, not necessarily in the holiness of the man himself, but in his Christgiven office. The answer is found by tracing the history of the Catholic Church ... the history of 262 successive Popes... back through nearly 2,000 years to Jesus Christ Himself. We know as a matter of historical fact that Christ did establish His Church... that He commissioned the Aposde Peter as its first head... that He sent His Aposdes forth to teach men to observe all things He had commanded. We know from the New Testament that the Church was actually organized... that it was governed by the Aposdes under the leadership of Peter... that it was teaching Christ's truth far and wide, long before the last book of the New Testament was written and the books of the Bible were collected into one volume. Christ's purpose in organizing a Church was to make certain that the good news of Redemption would be preached to all men... even to the end of the world.

The Catholic Church traces its unbroken history back to the Aposdes --back to Christ. And Catholics today call Pope Pius XII "Holy Father" because he is the lawful and historical successor to Peter, the first Pope. He is in our time... as Peter was in the first century... the Vicar of Christ on earth.
