The wind was dragging it along the ground until Hugh Kirk at­ tached himself to the side of the basket to try to keep it grounded. Thjs wasn,'t suc­ cessful for quite a distance, and Kirk had a piggy-back ride until the upper cloth finally collapsed. The balloon was piloted by Bert Ryland, who made a good landing until gusts of wind provided considerable trouble. He was accompanied by his instructor, Jud^fe Perry Strouse, of Waukegan. A balloon club leader, Bill Hanson, brought thenar and trailer to the landing spot. Mrs. Hanson, assisted by two members of the group, helped fold the tloth of the balloon and put it all into a canvas bag which was placed into the gondola (basket) and then on the trailer with the aid of Gunnard Barnas. \Come in and browse, you'll get ideas for furnishing N your bath and discover many charming gifts. & 3012 W.

Village of Evelyn Sandell Sunnyside 385-2696 GIFTS IMMEDIATFl Y AVAILABLE WHILE QUANTITIES LAST Warn Children Condition Of Ice Is Unsafe I just want to warn all of the parents in the village to try and keep their children from going out on the ice in the bay off the pier. This ice is not very thick and there are spots that are very thin -- I saw a dog fall through the ice the other day and if a dog can fall through a child surely can. Please let them wait until it is colder and the ice is thicker. END OF CHRISTMAS It seems such a shame to see everyone in the village taking down their Christmas decorations. It always looks so pretty and cheerful to see all the lights and figurines displayed in the yards. In my opinion it takes so much time to put them all up and then in a matter of two weeks they all get taken down again and put away for another year. DON'S BIRTHDAY I was just about ready to write my swan song to the paper when my faith in human nature was renewed again -- Cammie Gaylord called to give me some news -- Don's birthday was the first and they en­ tertained Don's mother, from "Woodstock, Jean Tomsa, A1 and Mary Kay Van Berkum, and Don and Loretta Madden. They all came over for dinner for Don's special day. NEED INFORMATION Please do me a favor, when you come in for your stickers bring along a slip of paper with your birthdays and an­ niversaries so I can print them in the paper --1 don't need ages just dates. Well I'll sign off again for another week hoping I have more news now that the holidays are all over. Who Cares About Litter? Who cares about litter? We all do - or we ought to. Here are some reasons why. It costs U.S. taxpayers $500 million annually for removal of litter from streets, parks, beaches and other public property. Include litter clean­ up costs on private grounds and the figure more than doubles! There is enough litter generated during one long holiday weekend in the U.S. to fill a line of trash trucks 43 miles long, or cover a four-lane highway all the way from Boston to Detroit, or fill a hole ten feet wide and 26 miles deep! Five times in every hour, an American home is destroyed or severely damaged by fire which started in rubbish or trash. The cost? - perhaps $30 million per year. Water litter and road litter have been shown to be directly responsible for both boating and vehicle accidents involving personal injury as well as damage to property and facilities. Litter hurts us every way - economically, from the stand­ point of health and safety and aesthetically. It lowers property values, discourages tourism, drives away existing businesses and causes prospective replacements to look elsewhere. It makes every one of us a little bit poorer. So remember that people do the littering and more people involved in a litter prevention campaign, the more effective it will be. Involvement leads to commitment. Litter is one problem we can lick if we all PITCH-IN. And a little reminder -- "Litter Is A Slap In America's Face, And In Yours". by Tom Hutchinson Researcher Guest Speaker At Medical School Dr. J. Stuart Soeldner, researcher and clinician from the Joslin Diabetes foundation, Boston, Mass., will be guest speaker Jan. 15, at the Loyola University Medical school, 2160 S.
