Master 'of ceremonies was Ed Cannon, urbane and affable, and looking as though he wasn't even worried about his Red Cross drive running concurrently with the show. Seems as though he didn't have anything to worry about, anyway, as his workers collected the splendid sum of $520 Sunday against a quota of $633. . ' Ringwood's Talented Friends' bight will be held in McHenry high school auditorium March 10 at 8:45 p.m.. Red Cross Drlvft / Th# Red Cross workers gathered for noon "brOnch" at LaGreca's Lake View Inn 8ubdny and then went out on their dOor-to-door campaign. For those who may not yet have made their donation, a check sent either to Ed Cannon, fund drive chairman for 1951, or directly to the McHenry county 'chapter of the American Red Cross, Woodstock, will be credited to this area. Those who contribute in Chicago are reminded that those donations are used in Chicago and do not aid in the program at Wonder Lake. The local program includes an opportunity for every child to learn to swim, free of charge, and first-aid for civil defense program, in addition to the regular services to veterans, their dependents, or others in need. Life Saved Bjr ResasrMator The father of Mr*> Dlckrnan, former co-owner of the Lake View Inn, John Johnstone, was saved by the resuscttator last Week when he suffered a heart attack, Greg Mehling, fireman in Chicago, was the man Credited with performing this humanitarian act. Josnstone rested a few days in the Woodstock hospital and was released < Monday. Again it might be well, before the summer comes, for a class to learn the use of the resuscitator. With the saving of Johnstone's life, it has already been more than paid for. If you had been present, could you have used the machine? If someone drowns and yOu are the only one present, can you go get the machine and successfully operate it? The machine cannot operate alone. All men interested in the children of Wonder Lake are invited to become members of the club. Betty Ten Beapa* Loses Her Grandfather Otto H. Senger, grandfather of Mrs. Betty Von Bampus, Wickllne Bay, died last Wednesday after a long illness. Services and interment were In Woodstock, wher^ the decedent had ben born and reared. Mrs. Von Bampus was reared in her grandparents' home, after the death of her mother, Mrs. Mary Curvall. Other than Mrs. Von Bampus, the survivors include' the widow. Mrs. Maude Crosman Senger. and two great-grandchildren. Steven Robert Von Bampus. 2%, and Teri Jane Von Bampus. who will be 1 year old St. Patrick's day. Relgels Have Grandson Word has arrived from Fresno. Calif., that Joe and Frances Riegel are again' grandparents, this time to a boy, who we all hope will take the place, of the little granddaughter who so tragically died a year ago. The new arrival, born to the Riegel's son, Don, and his wife, was born Jan. 29 and will answer to the name of William OralR. He came thirty days too soon and only weighed 5 pounds, € ounces. Mrs. Riegel says she has missed the Plaindealer, it didn't come in the last mail. She also asks how Vernon Hajeck is doing with the band. He resides in the Riegel house. In answer.to the question about the band, it .is my unprofessional opinion that Hajeck is doing a wonderful job, judging from the fine serious lot of young musicians who performed on the stage at McHenry high school' last Saturday and Sunday.

Proposed Egg Law Praised By I.A.A. The new egg law now before the state senate would help increase Illinois farmers' income about ten million dollars per year if adopted, George Iftner of the Illinois Agricultural association has predicted. "Illinois farmers are losing that amount yearly by not-selling top quality eggs," Iftner, director of the IAA special commodities department, said. "Since the proposed law would help raise the quality of Illinois eggs, it would mean more money for farmers, better eggs" for consumers and better business for egg dealers. That 1b why the IAA is backing the law. Iftner said. Here is how the law would work, according to Iftner: (1) All eggs would have to be candled, but farmer^jelling direct to customers would not have to candle their eggft, or sell on a grade basis; (2) All eggs sold at retail would have to be labled to Bhow grade, quality and size; (3) Producers would not be paid for Inedible eggs; (4) Standards for eggs wonld be established by the state Department of Agriculture, which would also enforce the law; (5) All egg dealers would have to be licensed. The reason most Illinois poultry raisers are making less profit than they could, Iftner "said, is because (1) their hens are laying fewer eggs than the average hen ini the U.S.; (2) tbey receive lower\ prices for their egg» than the U.S. average price; and (3) their hens lay more eggs during the season, when eggs are cheap than wlken they"re high priced. , A}so, Iftner said, only about 50 *peV cent of the eggs now sold from Illinois farms are grade A eggs. But consumers are willing to pay for top. quality eggs and would buy them if Illinois farmers would produce them. Egg dealers don't like to handle Illi-ribis eggs because they can't be BujriTof their quality and make less margin on them, Iftner declared. The proposed law, by setting up grade and size standards, would help correct these conditions, Iftner concluded. MED OF WOUJJDS Pvt.
