PAGE 5-PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1972 Ringwood News Benoy Family Reunion Held Last Sunday ' The Paul Walkington family attended the Benoy family reunion last Sunday. It was held in the Woodstock city park and there wefe approximately fifty people in attendance. They came from Arlington Heights, Schaumburg, Crystal Lake, Hebron, Woodstock, Ringwood, McHenry, Wonder Lake and Elkhorn, Wis. Oh yes, Althea was a Benoy, that's why they got to go to a Benoy reunion. HOME Our own Katie Christopher has been hospitalized for awhile and had surgery while there, but she is home at this writing and doing fine. All our wishes and prayers were an swered. PARISH UMYF Ringwood, Mt. Hope and Spring Grove churches got together for a three day campout this week at the Lazy K Campground in Spring Grove. Attending the campout were Bill Baker, Bruce Huebner, Brad, Laurie and Rod McClellan, Teresa Meckley, Karen Moe, Alan, Alice and Ann Walker. We planned fall activities for the YF group, including a retreat in January, and still had time for swimming, baseball, worship and a discussion. The only disap pointment was the rain on Friday night. It got so bad, we all went to Spring Grove and got a good night's sleep inside the church. On Saturday we went back to camp and cleaned up to go home. Thanks to our counselors Teri Grupe, Art and Delores Oakley, Barb Seaborg and Rev. and Mrs. Willis Walker for taking the time and patience to be with us. We learned a lot about the world, ourselves and each other. HOME VISITING Tom Walkington and Maya Stauber of Illinois Western in Macomb are spending 10 days with Tom's parents, the Paul Walkingtons. W.S.C.S. The time is coming for the fall meetings of the WSCS to begin. This first meeting will be Wednesday, Sept. 13, at the home of Doris Low. They will be as before, dessert and coffee at 12:30 followed with a short business meeting and a program. Do come and join us. If you have any questions please call 653-9262. Bring that friend or neighbor who is looking for something to do this fall. See you Sept. 13. GUESS WHAT? That couple up on the hill that went camping almost every weekend are now back to work. Yes, Dick and Jackie Crosby are both teachers. Dick is preparing for school this week but Jackie started teaching this last Monday at Spring Grove. But in between times they are busy canning. Tomatoes this time, although I hear they have another crop of beans. Good work Dick. , ABOUT TOWN Mrs. Nellie Hepburn had a pleasant visit with her grand son, Bob Grieb, of Hermosa Beach, Calif., and his mother, Mrs. Marion Grosdidier, of Azusa, Calif., this past Thur sday. They flew into Chicago where they were met by Aunt Nellie and Mrs. Dolores Brennan. After they left for home after a very brief stay, Mr. and Mrs. Tom Madden of Rockford and Tom Carlson of Chicago visited in the Brennan-Hepburn household on Sunday. BUSY THREE 4-HCLUB Monday, Aug. 14, the Busy Three 4-H club met at the Ringwood church in hopes to get the end-of-the-year records completed before the deadline. There are many members with crossed fingers hoping for a county project honor award, if not the higher state project honor award, both depending on how many points they have acquired over the past year. The members who do receive awards feel as though all of their work and efforts paid off. The ones who just miss are usually heard saying, "Next year I will work harder, even if it means doubling on my projects"! Good luck to all! SHOWER Once again Cindy Bruce was the recipient of a personal shower given by Resae Ackerman and Juanita "Mooch" Ackerman in Resae's home. Those attending were Miss Pam Bauer, Linda Grek, Mrs. Jackie Miller, Mrs. Vicky Matheson, Mrs. Laura Ackerman, Jan Pike, Rose Sklodowski, Kathy Sayles, Dolly Torrez, and Kathy Tonyan. A cake frosted in her wedding colors and punch and favors of little baskets filled with nuts and candy were served to the guests. Did you try on the goodies? I saw some of them, ha-ha-ha- HAPPY BIRTHDAY Happy birthday will be sung to Larry Cristy and Sonya Leh- mkuhl on Sept. 3 and to Mike Hogan, Jr., on the fourth and to Mrs. Rose Tonyan and Betsy (Fossum) Gleesner on the fifth. On the seventh Tom Low, Katy Christopher and Betty Madden share the day, and Edith Skidmore celebrates on the eighth and the ninth finds Mike Etten celebrating. A most happy birthday to you all. Once again our pleas go out to you the public to watch out for all of the youngsters on their way back to school. They tend to forget to look!

What is the maximum temperature of a cold front? Cold fronts occur in every month in the year. We might have more of them to pass over us in August than in January. What misleads many about cold fronts is the very name itself. But in summer a cold front might contain (behind the leading edge) air of 72 degrees, or even 80 degrees. A cold front is so-named be cause of its relative temper ature considering the time o f y e a r a n d p r e v a i l i n g weather conditions. August, this year, has al ready experienced several cold fronts. If the tempera ture has been reaching 90 degrees or more for several days and a mass of air moves in and over, with temperatures of 80 degrees or less, weathermen will call it a cold front.
