Each little fence row has as many hunters as a Keystone comedy car once had cope. Where do they all come from? Perhaps each Spring, dragon teeth art sown in with the corn, and, on the first day of the hunting season, the hunters spring from the ground fully armed and well attired in brown coats, and sometimes in little red caps. The $64.00 question this week, is where have the pheasants gone? Have they special hideouts to which they retire after the first shots are fired Does some special bird sense tell them that now is the time for all good pheasants to go into hiding? Most of this week's hunters are merely getting lots of outdoor exercise--and I must add, cattily, some of them need it! Tuesday evening the neighborhood turned out for the movie at the school. This picture, starring Kin- Tin-Tin Jr., was not of recent vintage. However, the photography of the mountains was breath-takingly : beautiful, and the youngsters got the same thrill from watching the magnificiently trained Junior that their | parents once experienced watching the original Rin-Tin-Tin. . Mrs. Delia Cheney was in charge of the refreshments which consisted of nice large sweet rolls and as much coffee as you wanted. Half of the fun of a school party is that little get-together over coffee. Little chatty groups gather and make up for the neighboring they havent had time to do. Mrs. Ellen Bergdahl promised to call for a number of her friends, and give them a ride to the movie. Getttaf a rather lite start, Mr*. B. drew up in front of the 'home of a friend, pressed taptiwOr on bar horn buttons-end tlx «u burst into flames! Mot too modi du»|t was done, bat enough--Mrs. Stella Riggers kindly picked up all the waiting ladies and drove them to the school! ! Some of Mrs. Bergdahl's beat friends tell me she hasadopted as her theme song that one that goes, "I j dont want to set the world on fire." i That Community Club Party held | at Harrison School on Sunday Nov- ! ember 18, was really a whooper-do. . A splendid turnout, lovely gifts, , lots of fun, and wonderful cakes with the coffee. Mrs. C. E. Prince and Mr. C. M. Rutledge, both of Wonder Lake, each took home a turkey. Mr. K. Epp, Mr. A. Finlay, Mr. Ait Hay, and Mr. Bert Seabeck #ere recipients of fine fkt chickens, and Mrs. Betty Pavlik took home TWO chickens! (Talk about taking -coals to Newcastle--at the last count, Betty had 300 chickens on^fier farm! Mayjbe each and every one is a friend ! of hers, and she can't bear to eat i them--We've had that happen to ufs ! --and these strange chickens can go into the pot. without a tear.) A brand new streamlined iron was under the arm of Mr. Jay Cristy and : Mr. A. E. Armstrong had $6.50 extra to tuck into his jeans (or into the purse of Mrs. A., we hope!). Down in the basement,, the Teeners were practising up their intricate I steps while several of the sub-"teeners around the edge, timidly tried to copy their "elders." The First and Second Grade mothers were busy in the kitchen cutting and arranging the 13 lovely cakes made by the group, both absent and present. Mrs. Vera Henthorne, Mrs. Grace Sellek, Mrs. P. L. Cormier, Mrs. Norma Hessler, and Mrs. Mari cella Larson were on»the kitchen i and serving committee. They had a | little trouble making some of . the I big boys wait until serving timev | (Big boys of around 45!) I Our Mrs. Eleanor Oley had as her working: Miss that the dub, Mrs. Mary Lou Merrltt and Mir. Las Henthorne, went quietly home fell on their facet! They were everywhere at once and really had pot forth a tr--endow effort! Mrs. PhyHis Butt, the third officer was unable to be present, due to the illness of her daughter: As special assistants for this particular party, Mr. and Mrs. V. Milbrandt gave heavily of their time. Mrs. Merritt is calling a business meeting of the Community club for 8 p.m., on Mondav evening, Noven*-. ber 26. She will make a full report of the party at that time. All members of Um community axe urged to attend. i The Ladles Auxiliary of the Rod j and Gun club are hoping: they get 'as fine a turnout for their party on I November 30. Have you marked | your calendar? j Mrs. Mildred, Howorka, Wonder Laker and McHenry County chairjman for the Junior American Red l Cross had a busy week when she | and Mr. Russell Allen, Ass't States j Attorney made>a tour of the schools 1 in the County explaining the meaning of the Red Cross and giving a ; brief resume of the History of the {Red Cross since its inception in Geneva, Switzerland. These busy volunteer workers appeared before more than 4,000 school children in a three day period. . u- Mrs. William Wright * is getting way ahead on her seasons.

This new fellow has been named "Lucky." Naturally we all hope he is! When Grandmother complained to small Pat that no one had thought about bringing her a birthday cake, the little fellow brought one in later in the day-- about five inches across and bravely sporting sixteen candles. "Is that the right number of candles, Grandma?" the little fellow anxiously asked. Mrs. S. had to admit that there really should have been 17, but that 16 were close enough! Mrs. Ross Moore and Aurielle Teverbaugh were out for the first time since they closed the cottages for the winter. Do you suppose that the good ladies came for the hunting or merely toc<|bmpanying hunters? Mr. Moore is a past president of the Wonder Lake Rod and Gun club, is undoubtedly very interested in those disappearing pheasants. Too bad Mrs. Heilman had such a bad start in the new home. We hear that she fell down the stairs and sprained her leg so badly that for awhile it was thought it mjght be necessary to put in in a opt. Many of the children are still ill with colds. We hear that Richard Richards, Richard Hoffman, and Arline Ness are among the school children still a bed with dat ol' dabbil "Flu." The news of the wonderful cooking at the Methodist church in Greenwood really gets around! The turkey dinner served Thursday evening must have had more than three hundred in attendance. Those observed from Wonder Lake were Mr. and Mrs. Carl Halstrom, Bill Hoeft (Where was the Mrs.?), Mr. and Mrs. Roy Noren, the - Jay Cristy family, Mr. and Mrs. J. Christopherson, and Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Bartwell. From McHenry, were Mr. and Mrs.. Don Blount, Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Duker, and Mr. and Mrs. Gladstone. We were told that even Representative Keller was there to„ sample that fine dressing and cranberry salad. birthday party for all those whose birthdays are in November. They were Sally Koch, Lea Bassi, Jo Beisecker, Jean MOinac, Fred Svoboda and Rev. Rueickheim. Cards, bunco and games were played and a delicious lunch was served. There was a beautiful whipped cream birthday cake with candles and all. Corsages of white and orchid baby mums were given to the birthday ladies and boutonnieres to the men. No*P 111 tell 'you a little skunk story. For three nights straight Jo Bartelt heard a scratching noise in her living room. The first night she thought it was the baby scratching the side of his bed so sh# scolded him and told him to keep quiet, but the noise kept going, so Jo got out of bed again. In the morning she told her husband and he said "Oh it must be a rat around the garbage can," so out Jo goes that day and cleans out the garbage can. That night it started again so out they went with a flash light and looked Under the house. It was a skunk trying to scratch his way in the house. Well, they left the trap door open but they took turns and sat up all night watching so that the skunk wouldn't scratch his way in. The scratching stopped*, the skunk got tired and left. Sorry to hear that Millie Svoboda is sick in bed. On Thursday last Mrs. Ed. Meehan entertained the Ladies of Lilymoor. Cards and bunco were played and delicious sandwiches and cake served. There wont be a social this week for the Ladies of Lilymoor because of Thanksgiving, but on Thursday, November 29, it will be at the home of Mrs. Stolle in Lily Lake. By the way, on account of Thanksgiving there wonV be a social on this Wednesday evening for the Lily Lake Ladies League, but there will be ' a social on Wednesday evening, November 28< at the Lakeside hotel.

Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Cristy have had a thirty day siege of the dark clouds. That small grandson with polio (now recovering in Roclcford) and their daughter-in-law and Kenneth Cristy Jr., both in the hospital at one time for major surgery--one in Chicago, and one in Great Lakes. Surely a lot of the darkness. Now the bright lining, Nelson Cristy, S-l., has returned home from Jacksonville, Fla., for a fifteen dav leave. Kenneth Jr., is well enough to be home so, that, for the first time in several years, two of the three Cristy servicemen will be at the family Thanksgiving table. Wth all of their invalids on the upgrade, and four of their five children at home this week, how truly thankful they must all feel. t Incidentally that gallant sailor, Kenneth Cristy, Jr., must have all the resistence of that other old salt, Barnacle Bill, because it came to our ears that he was ab!e»to arise from his bed of pain and attend a party in Milwaukee this week--and take his pretty nurse along!
