Busy John Johnson's home in Indian Ridge was badly burned and damaged by smoke when fire broke out in their floor furnace. Apparently it had been smoldering for hours, because the wall tiles were curled right off the wall. Most of the damage was^jjj the living room, and the fire department was able to save the rest of the home. The family had been visiting in ^Chicago at the time and a neighbor, Mrs. Frank Wnsilewski turned in the alrm when she noticed smoke pouring out of the louvers from the attic, vents. Another fire, with minimum of damage, was put out at the Don Lowery home. The fire apparently started from an overheated furnace. The fire department held- a successful fire drill at Christ the King church Sunday at the children's Mass. The church was emptied out in two minutes.

We wish any one knowing or seeing this be- ' ing done would report to the i nonstable. It's A Boy!

Nativity Evangelical Lutheran Church At the annual meeting Tuesday, Jan. 13, the congregation approved plans for building a new $128,000 church. Construction plans are now being drawn up by the architect and it is hoped that bids can be let in March or April. This event climaxes much hard work and loyalty on the part of members ar.d friends of Nativity, and we are deeply grateful for the splendid support that we have received toward the building of a desperately needed newchurch. There have been such wonderiful expressions of interest in the past, and we ask that as we have the most important way to go, we do not let down, but rather do everything possible to make this a reality sooner. Pictures of the new church will be printed as soon as they aie available. Groundbreaking for the new church is planned to be held in the spring.

Several new neighbors have rrioved in to Wonder Lake during the past month but everyone is staying so close to their fireside wc haven't been able to find out names. The telephone company has left us a lot to t>£ desired in service (beep, beep! is what the Burnses have been getting) and short on news and shorter on tempers. When June Keller was called for the Cub Scout news she kept saying, "I can't hear a thing so don't bother talking. I don't know who you are!" She is an able secretary for Cub Scouts so next week IF we get Red Cross Chairman William T. Born of Wooded Shores announces with regret that he must give up his chairmanship of the Red Cross in Wonder Lake, under doctor's orders.
