Why your electric company is plugging coal and uranium. I There are really only two fuels. The scarce ones and the abundant ones. The more dependent we are on the scarce fuels to make electricity, the less certain we can be that there will always be enough electricity. And the more costly that electricity becomes. So at Commonwealth Edison, we make ! i , over half of ourelectricity from coal and most of the rest from uranium. Both are abundant fuels. By using them, we're helping to conserve America's oil and natural gas resources for transportation and other vital energy needs. And we're lessening our reliance on imported fuels. Last year coal and uranium let us save over 100,000,000 barrels of oil costing over $1,200,000,000. Think of electricity as the Conservation Energy. The next time you plug ' something in, remember: You're using the energy that helps save energy. e Commonwealth Edison Working for you Mora Sunnyslde fftiftftnfi Attend Village Meetings Tuesday, June 5, the village of Sunnyside held its regular monthly meeting. More people are attending meetings and finding out just what is hap­ pening in the village. And there are those who have problems and want to know how they can be resolved. The problem of vehicle stickers was once again brought up. There are still a number of people who have not purchased their 1979 stickers. The Sunnyside police depart­ ment is doing a vehicle sticker check, and if you are stopped and do not have a 1979 tag you will be ticketed and fined. The weekend of June 1 was Geanup weekend in the village. For the convenience of residents, bins were placed in three areas around the village in which to dispose of rubbish. Items were to be palced in the bins. As you may have noticed, some people saw fit to just come and dump rubbish all over the areas. McHenry- Woodstock disposal does not clean up this mess. So with the help of some residents jt had to be done. Some people are very in­ considerate, and as a result this will no doubt be the last year for cleanup. That means if you have large items which are not included in the regular pickup, residents will have to pay themselves to have these items removed. POLICE NOTES The Sunnyside Police department held a bicycle registration over the weekend of June 2 and 3. Three or four people came and registered bike$. There are certainly more than three or four bikes in the area. The purpose of this registration is to give each bike a registration number. In the event the bike is lost or stolen the registration number on the bike helps the police find the owner. All registration num­ bers are kept on file with the police department. Chief Mitchell says another registration will be held , sometime in July and it is Itoped all bike owners will come and get their registration numbers. Watch for the date. GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY Long-time residents of the village of Sunnyside, Ann and Rudy Gamperl, 1406 Sunnyside drive, celebrated their Golden anniversary on June 1.

FIFTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of June 13, 1929) What will probably be one of the greatest engineering projects of its kind ever un­ dertaken ia the middle west is now actually under way in the Bull Valley area. As announced some time ago, the Jones & Winter company, large resort operators of Chicago, have acquired all of the land surrounding this section of the basin starting near the old Barnard grist mill and running south over three miles. They will have, when the present damming operation is com­ pleted, what will probably be the second largest lake in northern Illinois, surrounded on all sides by rolling, wooded shore lines. A bill for $1,365 presented by Attorney George Candlik for services rendered by him for Roy J. Stewart, former sheriff of McHenry county, featured the proceedings of the meeting of the board of supervisors.

FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of June 22, 1939) Arguments on the hearing of a petition, for leave to file in­ formation in quo warranto in connection with the organization and election of officers for the new village of Lily Lake in the county, were started in the Circuit .court before Judge William L. Pierce Saturday and continued until June 30. The case in question is a petition filed by the state in ,behalf of Louis Schroeder, one of the defeated candidates in the recent village election at Lily Lake. Schroeder asks that the newly elected officials of Lily Lake be required to show cause why they have exercised and are still exercising authority as village officers under statute upon and over inhabitants and property of the Lily Lake community.
