The fun night will be held at Casey's Hall on River and Dowell Roads from 8 p.m. until whenever. Try to set the evening of March 30 aside as an evening of fun and en­ joyment while aiding a most worthy cause. WOMEN'S CLUB MEETING The monthly meeting of the Holiday Hills Women's Club will be held on March 13, at the Mahon residence, 1509 W. Birch street. The meeting will begin at 8:30 p.m. We hope to see as many members and guests at this meeting as possible. If you have a new neighbor, invite them to a meeting so that they may meet some of the residents of our community. Girl Scout Troop 478, will present the entertainment for the evening as they honor their sponsors, the Holiday Hills Women's Club, with a skit. BEHAVIOUR AT BUSSTOPS There has been another plea from a mother in our sub­ division concerning juvenile behaviour at bus stops. It has been and still is a growing problem in our area as well as other subdivisions. Here is the letter in its entirety, with hopes that the parents of school age children will concern them­ selves with the problem and its solution. This is a matter which concerns all parents of children at our bus stops. There seems to be more trouble at the bus stops everyday, especially in the morning. I, as a mother of two "brats", am so tired of having my children come home and tell me that so and so hit them or so and so said he of she did this, or even worse yet missing the morning bus because he or she got hit and came home crying or their clothes ripped or pushed in the mud. I have talked to the principal at Hilltop school and he told me that he has tried talking to the kids, but he got nowhere because the trouble is hap­ pening here in our own sub­ division, not at school. It's up to us to try and stop it at the bus stops. So I have a suggestion. How about all the concerned mothers who are home in the mornings and afternoons each take a turn patrolling the bus stops in the morning and after school. That way, hopefully with a parent around, no one ' will start trouble and if there is the parent can stop it. I'm willing to take my turn and every other parent should be also. This letter was sent to me by Jan Hamilton. Anyone in­ terested in adopting this plan can call Jan at 385-6693 to try and set up a rotating patrol, so that maybe our bus stop problems may be alleviated. As with all problems of this nature, the monitoring of bus stops may help but the elimination of the problem will only be realized when the parents of the troublemakers see to it that their children behave. BASKETBALL GAME On Wednesday, Feb. 27, the fifth grade boys from Edgebrook school challenged the McHenry Junior High School sixth graders. It was an exciting game, with many of the boys displaying both physical and mental prowess in the game. It was the fifth graders all the way. They displayed excellence in playing ability throughout the game. Final score; fifth graders 45 points, sixth graders 33 points. Some of the boys from Holiday Hills who participated in the event were Tom Novak, John Grether and Ricky Kot­ tke, fifth graders. Eddie Hughes and Kurt Roth were among the sixth grade players. We are all proud of the sportsmanship displayed by these boys and are sure that they really enjoyed themselves during the game. GIRLSCOUT FIELD TRIP The girls in Girl Scout troop 478, chartered a bus on Feb. 12, to transport them to the Museum of Science and In­ dustry in Chicago. The troop shared the bus with troop 417, who were accompanied by their troop leaders Leith Harming and Micky Weide. Thanks to several of Holiday Hills Junior Girl Scout troop 478, mothers for chaperoning also. The chaperones were Mimi DeWitt, her son, Billy, Linda Thietje, her boys, Scott and Brian, Kitty Hill; her daughter, Cathy Bruser, Marge Connell, her son, Rick, and Tillie Williams with her son, David. The girls in the troop who participated in the activity were Dale Williams, Angela Catanzaro, Cindy Rasbaugh, Doreen Rasbaugh, Jeanna Boettcher, Chris Connell, Priscilla Kaspryzk, Debby Bartkus, Suzie Bielski, Cheri Bruser, Noreen DeWitt, Diana Gregg, Kim Hamilton, Kiki Hughes, Jeana Koeppen, Valerie Priko, Karen Thietje, and Dawn Douglas. Everyone enjoyed viewing such displays as the com­ munications booth, the coal mine, the U-boat submarine, Colleen Moore's doll house, and the trip through yesteryear. To say that everyone in the group was exhausted would be an understatement, as they spent from 8:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. traveling, walking, and discovering the * wonders of the Museum of Science and In­ dustry. A reminder to all the Girl Scouts in the area that March 10 through 16 is Girl Scout week. All the churches in McHenry will be holding special services on Sunday, March 10, in honor of the Girl Scouts. Girls are encouraged to wear their uniforms every day of Girl Scout week and par­ ticularly on Girl Scout Sunday. GET-WELL WISHES A speedy recovery wish to one of our Girl Scout leaders, Tillie Williams. Tillie had been hospitalized at Great Lakes for two weeks following surgery. She is home now and we all hope she's well on her way to a full recovery. GAA ALL STAR GAME What could be more en­ tertaining than a vigorous basketball game? That's just what the girls in GAA provided for their audiences at the West Campus gym on Saturday, March 2, at the GAA All Star Basketball tournament. A senior at West Campus, Debby Mahon, played in the Junior- Senior game. The seniors won the game by a 33-30 score. Playing for the Sophomore team in the Freshman- Sophomore game, Eileen Connell played with great adeptness. In that game the Sophomores reigned victorious with a 39-14 score. One of the highlights of the evening was half time. The departing Seniors were presented with a long stemmed rose. Deb Mahon had previously been voted "Most Athletic" by her peers and was honored as such at the half time presentation. All and all it was a very exciting evening for players and fans alike. FAREWELL HEN PARTY Thursday, Feb. 28, a very surprized Bonnie Kellen en­ tertained several of her neigh­ bors and friends in Holiday Hills as over 25 gals "dropped SATANISM WIDESPREAD IN U.S., WITCH COVEN POSSIBLE HERE ESP, psychic phenomena and other aspects of the super­ natural, the mysterious world of the occult, will be explored and explained in McHenry Friday night by Felix Snipes of Atlanta, Ga., a professional magician who deals with all things supernatural. Snipes, an associate of Evangelist Wayne Bristow, will discuss "ESP, Psychic Phenomena and the Occult" during a special program following the 7:30 Friday night service of the Wayne Bristow Crusade now in progress at the First Baptist church of McHenry. According to the Rev. V.L. Chappell, pastor, the occult presentation will be open to young people from junior high through 25 years of age. Adults may attend only as observers and will be seated in the back of the auditorium. The pastor stressed that, because of the unusual subject matter, it will be very important for those attending to stay for the entire program. "At one time I believed in only one aspect of the super­ natural," says Snipes. "I believed in God but I could not accept the existence of Satan, of demons, etc. But a few years ago I became convinced that there does exist a larger realm of the supernatural than just God himself." Snipes, a member of the International Brotherhood of Magicians, will conduct ex­ periments in thought projection Friday night, using persons from the audience. These ex­ periments will be similar to those done by Kreskein, who has been seen by millions on national TV. (Snipes has also appeared on television throughout the country, in­ cluding an interview on CBS with Roger Mudd.) A veteran of 15 years in an international ministry of in" for a farewell hen party. A collection of "green stuff" was taken so that Bonnie and Bob may purchase an appropriate house warming gift for themselves when they are settled in their new home. At this writing Bob and" Bonnie, and their children, Tommy and Jeanne, will be busy unpacking in their new residence in Lisle. We are all saddened by the loss of this fine family, but wish them the best of luck and much happiness in their new home. BIRTHDAYS Birthday greetings to John Lanway, II; Erna Novak; Buffy Catanzaro; Ron Wegener; and Jack White on March 9; to Pat Teuber on March 10; to Arlene Foreman, La von Dowhin, and Michael Tannert on March 11; to Greg Smith on March 12; to Robert White on March 13; and to Michael Priko on March 14. 409 Kensington Dr., McHenry, III., 60050 815 385 8830 Now Open for Inspection . . . a evangelism, Snipes approaches the supernatural in a Christian context. He says, "If we accept the Bible as truth, we must accept the existence of supernatural things. There are many places in the Bible dealing with witches, astrology and sorcery." Snipes has found satanism (worship of the devil) and thfe practice of witchcraft to be wide-spread in America. "I would not be surprised to learn that there is a witches' coven right herein Northern Illinois," he said. "During a time when thousands of teen-agers are delving into the black arts, I believe there is an urgency in dealing with the occult in a bold, frank manner," says Snipes. The Wayne Bristow Evangelistic team, of which Felix Snipes is a member, is being featured in special services at 7:30 each evening this week at the First Baptist church of McHenry located on Route 31 South. Recycling has increased in McHenry county. The McHenry County Defenders and all the groups that have worked on the monthly recycling drives are pleased that concern for the environment has prompted people to take the extra time to prepare and sort their materials and to deliver them to the volunteer workers at the McHenry Market Place on the third Saturday of every month. Here is a brief review of what to save and how to prepare it: All-aluminum cans may be identified by seamless con­ struction, extreme lightweight, and resistance to a magnet. These need only be cleaned and crushed to reduce bulk. Clean aluminum T-V dinner trays and clean aluminum foil also fit into this category. Do not bring aluminum coated paper, such as that in which margarine is wrapped. So-called "tin" cans (used for fruits, vegetables, pet food, etc.) must be clean and flat­ tened and paper labels removed. Pop cans are ac­ cepted if they are clean and flattened to reduce bulk. This Spring Grove Eva Freund 675-2135 can be done with the foot or sledge hammer. Glass containers of all kinds should be clean, separated by color (clear, brown, green) with lids, metal rings, and plastic bands removed. Paper labels need not be removed, but foil labels should be taken off. Newspapers should be tied securely (both directions) with heavy twine into stacks no higher than 10". Magazines, combined with advertising mail, etc., must be tied tightly into 8 to 10-inch bundles. Corrugated board will be accepted if tied separately into bundles able to be handled. March 16 will be the date of the next drive. The McHenry County Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) will be providing the labor for the paper, magazine, and corrugated cardboard collection. The group plans to donate the money that is earned to the American Friends Service committee for use in its relief work both here and abroad. The labor for the bottle and can collection will be provided by members of McHenry County college's National Organization of Women. A McHenry County Defen­ ders' representative is available at 385-8512 for ad­ ditional information. Vacationers Return From Enjoyable Trips Mrs. Agnes May has returned from a visit in California.

Mlinon McHenry County's Oldest, Laryest, Strongest Association where no saver has ever lost a rvwny From Irene Alford Boggs, East Liverpool, Ohio: I remember my childhood days in West Virginia where we lived on a hillside farm. We helped dad and mom, Van and Fannie Alford, and Uncle Thomas Adkins make railroad ties, fence posts, split rails. We cut down trees with a cross cut saw, made the ties by chopping them out with a broad ax. We spent a lot of time hauling with a mule from the hillside to the flat land be­ low. We hauled the ties to the railroad station at Ranger, W. Va., where the general store was lo­ cated and where we got all our supplies. Sometimes, dad would let us kids go on the wagon to Ranger. I still have the iron bar he used to roll the logs, also the sledge hammer and wedge. We raised most of our food. We had chickens, pigs, cows, mules, geese, ducks, and bees for honey. There were 14 children in our family, originally from Sulfur Fork of 14 Mile Creek, near Ran­ ger, W. Va. I have lived in Ohio and IHinois, for 18 years, but West Virginia still seems like home.
