Donna Humann, Veronica Bierman, Mary Beth Humann, Mary Ellen Johnson, and Karen Lencione did a requirement for the Community Safety Other girls on the Health Aid badge did a skit. Next we had treats. Our hostesses were Patrol 3. We had cookies, candy and kool-aid. We sang "For Health and Strength" for the grace. Linda Apel did require-' ments for the Musician badge.

The girls from our troop were Roni Bierman, Karen Lencione, Donna Humann, Beth Ann Koch, Renee Stilling, and Mary Ellen Johnson. We were split into groups with girls from other troops and went to work. First we each got a sheet of paper that had rules for a patrol leader. We discussed what each meant and we discovered what an agenda is. It's where you start patrol meetings with opening or song, you collect dues, take attendance, discuss new business, old business and close with a promise or song, etc. Also there's a Court of Honor at every meeting. In each patrol there is supposed to be a patrol treasurer, patrol scribe, patrol leader, assistant and transportation manager. We discussed many things. At 11:30 each group pui on a skit about one of the rules of a patrol leader. BIRTHDAY GREETINGS Special greetings to Danny Koch whose actual birthday is Jan. 24.

They were informed that he was promoted to Staff Serr geant as of January 1 with appropriate honors. Leah Nuss is a patient at Memorial hospital in Woodstock where she is recovering from a broken leg after a tobogganing accident last week. Some people believe in rushing things and this probably is no worse than all the fishing nuts who poke holes in the ice to pursue the finny creatures during the winter months when the poor unsuspecting things think they're finally safe. We've heard of some golf nuts who can't wait for the links to thaw out and found an indoor golf course in Lombard where they can play an actual game jof golf with sand traps and all the rest of the goodies. Probably don't even have to name them, but will for the record. Jim Wickenkamp, Lee Mai, Jerry Rogers and Norb Kwiatek rested long enough with only putting games on the carpet to keep them going and are happy to be in the swing again. That isn't as bad as playing golf in the snow anyway. Joanne Mai had a demonstration in her home last Thursday with twenty-two gals attending. Dessert was served to the gals and they had a great time as usual. Beth Ann Koch celebrated her tenth birthday last weekend with a pa jama party. The kids actually did get some sleep in after a while and they had a good time eating and playing "Twister" and just being girls. Her guests were Leslie Haggenjos, Dee Dae Dowell, Cindy Kamp, PamFoszcz, Nancy Brda,Charlene Dietrich, Renee Stilling, and Mary and Tina. On Sunday the Kochs celebrated both Beth Ann's and Danny's birthday which is this week with their grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. A.P. Meilahn, and aunt Helen and Butch Cox. John and Maureen Johnson, Betty and Bill Kamp and Max and Shirley Koch went tobogganing that lovely snowy weekend we had a few weeks ago at Veteran's Acres and afterwards warmed up in front of Kochs' fireplace with some Smuggler's Grog. You could say they were "groggy!". Ray Cynowa celebrated his birthday with Clar and Eleanor Haelre and Carol and Carl Sima last Sunday. Oh these birthdays sure do creep up. Several people have mentioned lately that they have had trouble seeing kids after dark and have had a few close calls' and too near misses'. Paperboys were mentioned in, particular and I know that Pve seen kids on the road just in time to avoid hitting them too often for comfort. Dark colored clothingafter dark is an invitation to disaster. Lights on bicycles and some white or ligjit colored clothing -loes wonders and might avert' an accident one of these dark mights. ^ Reserve Champion Hereford Carload SCHUH RE-ELECTED HEAD MEMORIAL HOSPITAL UNIT The pride McHenry county residents have in their hospital at Woodstock is reflected in a variety of ways, KennethSchuh, president, asserted Tuesday night, as he spoke at the fiflyfourth annual meeting of Memorial hospital for McHenry County association.
