May it be so with all of us this 1981. GOD BLESS New International Postal Rates Become Effective Pl international mail will become effective Jan. 1, the Postal service has announced. The rates apply to mail sent to all foreign countries, with some exceptions for Canada and Mexico. Most of the rates for these two countries will remain at current levels until new proposed, domestic rates take effect, which is expected in March 1981. Postal rates for mailings to military overseas addresses also are not affected by the increased international rates, the Postal service said. Starting Jan. 1, the new rates for most letters going internationally by air will increase from 31 cents per half ounce to 40 cents per half ounce; one ounce letters by surface mail will cost 30 cents, up from 20 cents. Postcards will cost 28 cents for airmail and 19 cents for surface mail - up frqm 21 cents and 14 cents, respectively. Areogrammes will cost 30 cents each, an increase of eight cents. " The -P«tal service said that a substantial amount of the increased costs for International service are due to recent amendments to the provisions of the Universal Postal Union (UPU). The amendments resulted in significant increases in the amounts the Postal service will be required to pay foreign postal administrations for their handling of United States origin mail. The UPU is an agency of the United Nations with 160 member countries. It acts to regulate the exchange of international mail among all countries. Because the amendments also affect other countries belonging to the UPU, it is expected that many other postal administrations may increase international mailing rates, the Postal service said. Postal officials point out that like domestic rates, U.S. international rates will continue to compare favorably with those of other industrialized nations. Wondei^Lake Anne Sowers 653-9549 Area Disaster,• In December What started out as a disaster for Mr! and Mrs. James Holzrichter and their three children, Heather, Jimmy and Andrew, ended up with deep feelings of appreciation and good will. Early in December, while the Holzrichters were out, a fire broke out in their home destroying most of the interior along with personal belot^ings. Luckily, no one was injured in the fire because Mrs. Holzrichter and her three children were just \ pulling into the driveway, after being in Wisconsin, when\ they noticed \the fire. The fire department was called and is said to have arrived, as usual, very quickly. For four days, the Holzrichters stayed at neighbors, Sharon and JJarry i Peters, who were"" most supportive. Mrs. Holzrichter says that whenever a crisis seems to arrive in their family, the Peters are always there to help. Help poured in from the » community. Among those offering assistance were the Salvation Army, Red Cross in Woodstock, and Wonder Lake Kiwanis. Heather, who is a first grade student at Harrison school, was supplied with some clothes through the school. . Other friends like Paulette and Jim Wautelet and Bob Mullins did more than their share to lessen the burden that has come to the family. Even though it will be a time before the construction is completed in their home, the Holzrichters are comfortable in another Wonder Lake home they are renting, with the wonderful feeling that many Wonder "Lake people really care. BOYS BASKETBALL Many of our Wonder Lake seventh and eighth grade boys from Northwood Junior high have been spending every spare minute since N o v e m b e r l e a r n i n g basketball plays and perfecting their shots.

Christmas vacation will Sve the boys a little break (fore practice begins again Jan. 5. They have six more games endihg their season on Jan. 27, meeting Johnsburg Junior high. SKI TRIP Wednesday, Dec. 17, was the date of an exciting adventure/, for three young men from Wonder Lake, skiing for the first time. Keith Dudziak, al Reuter, and Bob Rizzo were off to the slopes on a ski trip sponsored by Northwood Junior high. Even though we don't see much snow around our yards, the weather has been cold enough for the snow making machines to help out the skiers. Keith, Al and Bob left with an enthusiastic group on a bus right after school and returned back to school at 9 p.m., filled with knowledge of a new sport. Another trip is planned after Christmas vacation. WOMAN'S CLUB Since December is such a *• busy month for everyone, the members of the Woman's club of Wonder Lake do not meet. A cocktail party was enjoyed, though, by members and their guests Sunday, Dec. 14, in the home of Bob and Clara Krueger.
