APOLOGIES Somewhere between pen, typewriter and printing press, there was a mistake in last week's column. Concerning Memorial Day Services, the Mrs. Tomasello who placed the wreath on the Memorial Rock was the aunt not the mother of Vincent Tomasello, who lost his life while serving in the Armed Forces. Pm sorry this mistake was made. My deepest apologies to sill concerned.

As Carrie put if "If it weren't for all the wonderful women who donated clothes, bakery good, money and worked so hard, there wouldn't be a rummage sale." She is grateful to know and be associated with such nice people. To all of you who donated things or worked a sincere "Thank You" from Carrie Kurth. And now from all of us who have the pleasure of knowing Carrie, we want to " Thank You" for so unselfishly giving of your time to run this affair every year.

The first part of the, parade consists of the VIFs and special guests of the parade all riding by in convertibles. Such notables as Lt. Gov. Paul Simon, Paul Powell, Setfy of State, Rep. Robert McClory, Rep. Thomas Hanahan, and many others were going by, when all of a sudden I spotted a very familiar face. There in one of the convertibles going up the street was our own village President George Luto. For a moment there he was the most recognized person in the parade, with my boys screaming "There's Mr. Luto." George, as president of McCullom Lake, was one of the special guests along with other McHenry county mayors, and was .seated on the reviewing stand with all the other VIPs. It is only regretful that because of the rain, they had to cancel the annual mayor's milking contest!.'! We should be very proud of our village being so represented.

If yo are over 16 years old and drive s car, it it is your responsibility.
