v.R. -"-R IS Section Three -- Pago Six THE McHENBY PLAINDEALER / Thursday, February 11, 1965 «• • v?: JOHNSBURG NEWS 885-1299 PUBLIC SCHOOL PTA HEARS CHORAL GROUP FEB. 16 All members of the Johnsburg Public School P.T.A. are invited to participate in the next meeting which will be coming up on Tuesday evening, Feb. 16. At this time the seventh and eighth grade choral group, under the direction of Robert Prince, will perform for everyone's enjoyment. Meeting time is scheduled for 8 p.m. on this date. Birthday Mix-up There seems to have been a little confusion in last week's paper on the birthdays of" two of the Hettermann girls. The correct dates when the girls will turn nineteen are the 6th and the 11th. Kathy's was the 6th and Sandy's is the 11th. Ed, Dot and Eddie drove to DeKalb last Saturday evening to take Kathy out for dinner on her natal day. Happy birthday anyhow, girls. Home For A Short Visit The Clarence Freund family drove to the airport Friday evening to pick up their son Gary. He is in "Uncle Sam's" employment and had just completed schooling prior to flying home. The visit was too short, but most enjoyable. Congratulations Corner Belated anniversary wishes to Mike and Eva Schaefer who recently celebrated their wedding anniversary. Birthday wishes are^ being sent all the way down to Florida where Mrs. Gladys Smith will be observing her big day in the sunshine on Feb. 12. Best wishes and much happiness to them. Basketball Notes Boy, our town team won a real close one from Richmond on the 3rd. The score was 102 to 100. They don't <^ome much closer than that. On the 7th they were the victors over Huntley by a 103 to 96 score. This week they play at Dundee on the 9th at 8 p.m. St. John's games last Sunday were postponed. Town People Mourn Lifelong Resident I'm sure I can speak for eveiyone who has ever come in contact with Bill Smith in the past years, he is going to be missed terribly. Although Bill has had some pretty rough times whenever he would get sick, he always snapped back. I guess that's, what makes his death kind of unbelieveable yet. 'I worked with him for quite a few years and they just don't come any better. Bill, who was 61 at the time of his death, passed away at the Woodstock hospital where he was confined for about a week and a half. Besides a host of friends, he leaves three brothers, Walter, Charles and Alfred, and three sisters, Lenora Miller, Agnes Weber and Rosina Weber to mourn him. To his family we wish to extend our very deepest sympathies. 'C.O.F. To Meet "The men Forester will meet in the community club hall tonight (Thursday) at 8 p.m. All members are invited to attend at this time. Informative Meeting In Offing The third of three meetings which were held in the community club hall in regards to works, aims and methods of the John Birch society will be held on Feb. 17. Anyone wishing to be enlightened as to how Communism can creep into our every day life is invited to be in attendance at this concluding meeting. A guest speaker will be present. Sympathies Extended . We wish,to relay our sympathies to the surviving members of the Mrs. Thomas (Hortense) Brennan family. Mrs. Brennan passed away this past week. Also sympathies are sent to Mrs. Joe Regner and her family upon the^ recent death of Mr. Regner A./ Funeral services were conducted in McHenry on Saturday. Girl Scout News Mary Jo Kennebeck reports to me "that on Jan. 29 the scouts left for a camping trip at Chapman Hills. Upon arrival they unloaded the equipment and settled down to a night and day of scouting fun. One of the first things on the agenda after arrival was the preparation of supper. After the meal, a scouts own and wide game took place. This consisted of record checking, compass instruction, types of ; earning equipment, first aid kit and use of the pocket knife. The evening was completed with the serving of refreshments followed by the ti^oop retiring to their sleeping bags for a good night's rest. "Early to bed and early to rise" and so on--upon awakening the next morning, the girls enjoyed a breakfast which consisted of bananas, grapefruit, oranges, cereal, sweet rolls, milk and hot chocolate. After the meal, it was down to business. The troop was given first aid instructions. They also enjoyed the playing of games and the singing of songs. Then more work--a trip outside for fire wood. Lunchtime menu included Girl Scout stew, fruit salad, brownies, chocolate milk and sweet rolls. After lunch some of the scouts made patrol flags and they all joined in cleaning up , the lodge. Patrol leaders were also elected at this time. The outing proved most satisfactory to all the scouts- who participated. More Florida Visitors The Bud Lieser family should be home very shortly after a delightful trip to the sunny south. Can't you imagine all the things Kathy and Mary Jo will be telling their friends about when they get back. I also wonder how the whole trip impressed five year old Pete? We will just have '• to wait until they return to get our answers. Family-Type Birthday Celebration Our entire family was together last Sunday to celebrate my Dad's sixty-sixth natal day, For the first time in that many years' Dad was completely taken by surprise by his "offspring". My brother, Richard Dehn, his wife, Catherine, and their five youngsters, Jim, myself and our three traveled to Chicago right after Mass so we could execute this long planned surprise. Making up the rest of the party for "family members only" were my two sisters and* their families, the Bert Davises and the Ted Beeskows. Last but certainly not least, our Dad, the honored guest, John Dehn. We all enjoyed dinner together and took lots of pictures which will serve as reminders of what a great time Dad's sixty-sixth birthday was. Four Of A Kind ^Harry and Mary Thielare now parents of a fourth- daughter. Their newest addition came to live in their home within the last week. The brand new baby will answer Ip.itk^name of Christ^ Ann. Besides her happy parents and three sisters, she has a maternal grandmother, Mrs. Irline Botts, in Crystal Lake and her paternal grandparents* Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Thiel, reside on St. John's avenue. Many happy wishes to Harry and Mary and their "four of a kind". Rescue Squad News The «three most recent calls answered by the Johnsburg rescue squad has brought the running count up ito 2,441. On the 26th of January the members were summoned to Pistakee Highlands where a woman suffered a possible heart attack which proved fatal. This call was answered at 5:35 a.m. At 2:30 p.m. on Jan. 30 a child suffered from a home accident and was taken by the squad members to the McHenry hospital for further treatment. Lincoln Road and Cuhlman Road was the scene of a possible heart attack at about 12:10 a.m. on Feb. 1, The patient was taken in the squad ambulance to the hospital. More safety notes as a courtesy of our own Johnsburg Rescue Squad.--In the event a person is injured, always treat for £hock. Keep the victim warm at all times. Cover with blankets to maintain the body heat. Also in the event a person should fall, even if it is out in the snow, do not move them if there is any chance they may have broken bones. Cover well and send for help as soon as possible. A helpful little hint-- Try to reassure the victim that everything is being done for his good and he will be fine. Vehicle stickers are available in five places in town for your convenience. They are the two service stations right in Johnsburg, the tavern and barber shop on Chapel Hill Road and the tavern in Sunnyside. Please pick yours up now." They are free through the generosity of the rescue squad but any' little donation towards maintaining their equipment will be greatly appreciated. Hospital Patient Still confined to St. Therese hospital in Waukegan, is Albert Adams. His severe leg and hip injuries have made his stay there quite lengthy. Whenever you have a minute to spare, why not drop him a line or two. It will certainly help to "pep" him up.

Hubby Bob presented me with a beautiful orchid corsage in honor of the occasion. « Another week closer to that wonderful green season called Spring. The way the weather acted last week, it looked like it was setting in for keeps. Maybe that would be the only way to get a built-in swimming pool! But who wants one in a basement? That's the news, short, but that's all I have. How about a little help? In mountainous regions, 1,- 000 feet altitude generally brings the same changes in plant life and temperature that 1,000 miles of travel north or south at same altitude would produce.
