Sunnyside Area Betty Messer 344-2494 Building Boom Prompts Review Of Ordinances The village of Sunnyside is growing fast and many new residents are coming into the qgp all the time. It has come to the attention of village officials that many people are putting up storage sheds and fences. The village has ordinances regarding the erection of fences and s heds and they must comply with village specifications. Many are being erected without a building permit. They also do not meet village specifications A building permit is required before a storage shed or fence can be erected. Permits are obtained from the village building inspector Robert Tomsa, 385-6026. Those who disregard the village or­ dinances are subject to fine. To the residents of the new areas of Sudeenew, Em- berwood and Lake Dawn wood, we again extend an invitation to attend the monthly village meetings. Meetings are held the first Tuesday of the month One insurance agent is the best policy A handful of insurance policies won't guarantee complete insurance protection. When you ask your Country Companies agent to take care of all your insurance needs, he can spot the gaps that leave you and your family unprotected. Your Country Companies agent will also look for overlapping coverage and unnecessary poli­ cies while making sure you have the right kind of insurance in the right amounts. Find out for yourself why one agent--your Country Companies agent-is the best policy for health, life, auto, home, farm and business insurance. The Country Companies.

HOUSE NUMBERS Once again I would like to bring up the subject of house numbers. Last fall we asked people to please see that their house numbers are posted on the front on their house. For the benefit of emergency vehicles, police, fire and rescue squad, precious minutes are lost when an emergency vehicle must search for a home with no numbers visible. So when you go about your spring cleaning make sure your house numbers are posted and visible from the street. APPRECIATION Donna Mitchell of 4017 Wilmot road received many flowers and cards from friends during her recent stay in the McHenry hospital. Donna is now home and recuperating nicely. Donna hopes to soon be able to return to her duties as one of Sunnyside's police of­ ficers. McHENRY POLICE DEPT.

Goodwill To Visit Community May 26 Twain Replies Mark Twain once debated the question of polygamy with a mormon friend. The discussion became heated and the Mormon asked: "Can you tell me a single passage from the Bible which forbids polygamy?" "Certainly," Twain replied, "No man can serve two masters." The purpose of Goodwill Industries is to give people a chance to help themselves, but to accomplish this, the agency needs the support of the public in the form of clothing and housewares, according to Mrs. Nick (Agnes) Adams, local representative. The Goodwill truck will be in McHenry Friday, May 26. For pickup service or information call Mrs. Adams. "Goodwill helps people to adjust and accept their han­ dicaps, to recognize and use their abiliites instead of with­ drawing because of their disabilities." "Goodwill uses modern prevocational testing to determine their individual abilities and aids the han­ dicapped to develop vocational1 goals. Work adjustment; programming, under the capable guidance of super­ visors and counselors, helps' them to acquire skills and good vC work habits.
