V, Beach Activities Construction of a large barbecue grill to accommodate , ten persons is very nearly complied. The brick and masonry wot? was done by Matthew Ziemet and Raymond Olszewski, who not only put in several days of hard work, but also supplied some of the materials required gratis.

Athletic club and the McHenry Shores Club, Inc. A life line to protect our children while swimming at the beach will be placed in position shortly. The necessary iron pipe was donated by Theodore Guy and other materials such as line, buoys, etc., have been purchased. Mr. Guy, Mr. Stark and Mr. Hattan are to botocommended for the time they have spent in completing the necessary work. Still More Improvements Three flood lights are in the process of being installed at the beach. They are controlled by a timing device and will automatically come on at 9 p.m. each night during the summer months and go off at midnight. F^i Stark and Charles Whitney worked on this project. Gay Gathering Twelve lucky ladies from McHenry Shores were treated to a delicious luncheon and card party, June 13, given by Mrs. Fred Dodge of 906 Hilltop.

I hope you have enjoyed reading these weekly reports as much as I have enjoyed writing them. A column of this kind serves a useful purpose in the community and sincerely trust that my successor will receive the interest and cooperation of all of you. The drainage area of the Mississippi River equals the area of England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, France, Portugal, Germany, Austria, Italy, and Turkey. \ Better take a critical look at your tires if you are planning to do much turnpike driving this summer. According to the Institute for Safer Living, blowouts and tire defects figure in nearly 8 per cent of all expressway accidents. Tires which would ordinarily give \ safe performance for some time under moderate, driving conditions may blow out or otherwise fail under prolonged higher speeds.
