Lakemoor-Lilymoor Area Margaret Karas 385-4934 Seniors' Van Wednesday is the day of the week that our Senior Citizens have transportation available to go to the McHenry center at the Moose lodge. The McHenry County Senior Citizens Council has acquired a van, with a hydraulic lift for persons in wheelchairs, and is now working on schedules for area residents. • * If you wish to be at the center on Wednesday for the "Meet-and-Eat" program, call the Woodstock office Monday, at 338-6075. An appointment can be made to be picked up at your home and a small fee will be charged for each trip. Plan on staying for food and fellowship at the center three to four hours. Future plans, as the needs are made evident, include using the van for mini-trips and pre-planned shopping or medical trips. i PUBLIC WORKS New residents in Lake moor, Dolores and Bob Suess, note the work done by Charles Schmidt, of Lakemoor's Public Works department. The Suesses, were trying to remove the debris from their property and asked about the disposal of several large tree trunks they were unable to move. The dead wood was cleared away through Charlie's •efforts and the area looks much improved. Dolores is in the market for a used boat so she can work on cleaning out the channel near Venice drive this spring. Now there is a project for some of the young people; use your energy and, develop muscles in cleaning up and making our area more attractive. Dolores and Bob will certainly do their share. NEW SERVICE With the first snow of winter, comes thoughts of school closings due to a storm. A realtor in our area reports that a call to 344-3100 will reveal school closings in McHenry county. Also, local weather conditions are reported as a public service. Time and temperature received when calling 385- 9400, sponsored by a local bank, has long been ap preciated. Now another need is filled, as often local conditions are quite different from Chicago reports. SYMPATHY Delbert Watkin of Lilymoor died at the McHenry hospital Jan. 27.

The beautiful bright male cardinal did not see the glass in our window, crashed into it, and was killed. George and Diane Kawell the birds^ away^from win? dows. The outline of a hawk ' with wings spread wide, was , cut out of construction paper' and hung in their picture window. Song birds, knowing that hawks are birds of prey, will stay away from them. George reports that no birds have hit the window, but also, less are feeding at the feeder. ' A Any other suggestions for helping protect our birds? GRIPES AND GROANS A new issue of postage stamps features W.C. Fields. I submit that* the Post Office department refrain from designing and producing stamps that use twice as much paper, glue, and all other costs incurred when a product is doubled in size for no necessary pur pose. Shall we ask for a study, at about a $50,000 cost, to determine how much the Post Office department would save you and me, if stamps were made in only one size? What's your gripe?

Included in the Salute will be music, dancing and other entertainment as well as celebrity visiting. Events will be coordinated at each hospital by VA's Voluntary Service, an organization that oversees services of some 100,000 hospital volunteers nationally. The Salute has been conducted each year since 1974 to show hospitalized veterans that their fellow citizens appreciate their service to the country and have not forgotten them. It came under direct VA sponsorship of VA for the first time last year. Administrator of Veterans Affairs Max Cleland said that Mrs. Rosalynn Carter will serve as honorary patron of this year's Salute and that Gen. William C. Westmoreland, former Army chief of staff, and Gen. Louis H. Wilson, former commandant of the Marine Corps, are honorary chairmen.

Celebrity visitors, as in the past, will include professional football and baseball players, National F o o t b a l l l e a g u e cheerleaders, Miss America and Miss Black America contestants and "bunnies" of Playboy International.
