«ML- * liursday, January 23,1384 •y-~ Lakeland Park CHILDREN HONdft ALEX DONARSKIS ON 50TH WEDDING Barbara Meurer -- 385-4356 Kay' Druml This story had its origin many years ago. Bernice and Alex met, fell in love and on Jan. 17, 1914, they became man and wife, Theirs was just like so many marriages, with its trials, tribulation, its blessings, happiness and sorrows, all of which just made for a solid foundation for a long lasting happy marriage. Bernice and Alex have three children, Elmira, Norbert and Marvin. On Oct. 26 of lpst year the Donarskis had their golden anniversary party because of the unpredictable weather of January and many of their guests came from out of state. At St. Mary's church at 10 a.m. Mass, officiated by the Rev. Eugene Baumhofer, Bernice and Alex renewed their marriage vows in, the presence of their children. The entire family attended Mass and also received the Blessed Sacrament of Holy Communion for the intention of their wonderful mother and dad. We know how proud Bernice and Alex must have felt. After Mass, breakfast was served to the family and a few close friends, as well as the Reverends Baumhofer and Holmgren at thp Donarski home. 130 friends attended a dinner and wonderful evening at the American Legion home in McHenry. There was one member of their original wedding parly in attendance. To Bernice and Alex the whole day was one to be remembered especially since they were surrounded by their children and grandchildren, Elmira, Al, Jim, Allen and Cindy Kujak, Flora and Norbert Donarski and their two daughters, Darlene and Nordine, Lynne and Marvin Donarski and their two "children Scottie and Tory. As a surprise gift of their children, they were taken out for the actual anniversary date. They saw a play at the Candlelight theatre after having had a very wonderful dinner. We leel quite sure that the Donarskis have added another batch of wonderful memories to all those accummulated these past fifty years. May the good Lord watch over you both, protect you both, keep you both very healthy and happy and we both pray that the Good Lord will see to it that you share many, many more years of togetherness. «i side of Fox Lake.

Hope Ronnie Kamp's broken finger will not keep him from taking his midterm exams this week. Ronnie broke a finger on his right hand at school. Bet •§> Mary Becker never wants "tummy" flU again, she had quite a bout with it. Hope Grace Serio, Ruth Mc- Mahon, Delia Julian, Fred Ludwig and Grace Mandziara are all on the road to recovery. A lar^e piece of ice that had been thrown found Kenny Becker's shin bone and caused Kenny no end of discomfort plus a visit to the doctor. Carol Krumsee had her tonsils removed during the past week. She parted coflipany with them at Woodstock nospital. We both hope Jim Daurio's mom has improved and that Max Koch's critically ill sister is resting as comfortably as she can.

Roses And Thorns Seems like a strange title and it is, but we have found that people read things that they know their name will appear in, or something with a strange heading and by-pass the rest of the page, so were hoping that everyone will take time to read this. We are most grateful to all of you who have taken time to call your news to us. We are also very grateful for the very many compliments we have received for our feeble attempts at writing a column for our subdivision, we are and always will be open for criticism and pointers. The thorns come to us when we pull a boo-boo, and .believe us we've pulled some. One thorn tho' that we feel is not completely our fault, people who tell us, "How conie this and that wasn't in the paper," If we could spend all day dial' ing phbne numbers we'd still miss someone who had some news, because we do it all the time, every week as a matter of fact. Please, won't you give us a helping hand by dialing us at the above number and give us your news? We'd be oh, so very grateful. It's your column, we merely try very hard to put It down in type. Please, give us a helping hand. Community House Schedule Following you will find the schedule for the community house for this coming week.

We also know that Mary will be an asset to the Pack and we'd like her to know that all the Cubbers and parents are so glad she came forward to take over the den. "The Pack still has one den flag that is not being ^usM .and we feel that there must be another mother in our subdivision somewhere who would like to pick it up and be a Den-mother.

If you chanced to pass the Rizzb home on Monday evening, Jan. 13, you probably thought they had a lot of company -- or a party was in pro gress -- and your guess would have been right! There was a party -- the. annual combined committee "get-together" with Jo Rizzo and Lyda Radisch as the co-hostesses. All the "gals" on both Jo's and Lyda's committees were t in attendance; namely - Arlene Bartos, Dolores Belohlavy, Vickey Bottari, Lee Glorch, Lillian Glosson, Pearl Koester, Italia Mazzoni, Petey Oakford, Jean Parisi, Ruth Roach, Dolores Rogers, Margo Schaedel, Helen Strandquist; - and Janet Kozy and Barbara Muerer, special guests, com' pleting the club officers; - and of course, Jo Rizzo and Lyda Radisch. It was truly a "gala" evening- and one the members of the committees have been looking forward to. Everyone entered into the "Holiday Spirit" again - and joined in the various games, including "Christmas" - "Who Am 1" - and so on - and what a mad scramble when "Robber Bingo" or "Grab Your Neighbor's Gift" was played. The punch bowl was busy throughout the evening - and what delicious snacks and refreshments.! Wasn't that sausage bread and kucken out of this world? And those chocolate chip goodies! Oh, well, who counts calories at a time like this? Undbr the blinking Christmas Tree was piledl many beautifully wrapped gifts - the annual grab bag exchange -- and the ohs and ahs as each gift was opened. The climax, - of course, was when both Jo and Lyda were presented with packages, and upon opening hers, Jo found a slightly used child's knitted hat, which sent Jo into gales of giggles and she immediately began to model the hat; - and Lyda found a rather large pair of boys' black gloves in her package? that had seen their share of wear; - but the girls were then instructed to look further down in the, boxes and there they both found merchandise certificates -- so now they can go "shopping without cost or money." Both Jo and Lyda were sur prised, and quite pleased that their girls were so thoughtful and kind, but they both said they did not feel it was necessary for the girls to give them gifts; because they so enjoy working with the girls and are so happy they have such wonderful committees. But, as all. good things must come to an end - the party had to finally break up - <but it was such a nice party. Jim Jobes, Lydia Fenner, Peggy Garrelts, Glen Eichmarin, Richard Fenner, Midge Scharf, Delia Freund, Adeline Zemont, Helen Birmingham, Stan Diedrich, George Mrachek, John Barren, Chris Affield, Jim Hood and Hal Vorncahl, visited with the veterans.
