We're referring W course, to the old shack just off the blacktcp. For years, this little cottage Jias been vacant md the elements have not been kind. In the Jaat few years, much damage has been done by a ilnall group of youngsters who thought it a lark to break" (the windows, tear the screens, and in Other ways abuse the property. Now this property is still privately owned and trespassirtg on ft constitutes breaking the law. But, unbelievable as it may sound, there are people living in our midst who not only defy this law but actually have the indecency to throw their own waste and refuse on thi» property. Hiis is the most flagrant Violation of all that is right and decent. ***• For a very nominal sum, there •xe competent men who make a living picking up garbage and disposing of it in the proper places. Let us earnestly hope that these few individuals will aee the error of their ways and in the future will dispose ot their garbage in the respectful, l^gr abiding maimer. {perform* Wonderful Service &ats off and cheers for that wonderful gang which performed , an invaluable service to their community last Saturday morning. We're referring to the new lOdk on the shack property. The group involved was the 8Qver Fox patrol, which is the KcCuDom Lake patrol of the ijfcHenry Boy Scout Troop 162. These wonderful boys under tfys able leadership of three civic-minded gentlemen, Walter Aufrecht, Bill Creutz, and Larry Murray, cleaned up and disposed at all the garbage which had lMien dumped and boarded up the windows and doors of the shack to prevent further vandalism. These youngsters Who gave up their play time to perform this service were Johnny Vycital, Paul Seeber, Angelo Budacci, Paid Scholtz, Ronnie Creutfc Johnny Scarbrough and Dennis Huff. Two Cub Scouts participated, Wally Aufrecht and Donate Vycital George Baumbeck and Judy Murray also helped but they are not affiliated with the Scouts.

HOME IS , SAFE OME, SAYS . • " HEALTH SPECIALIST' A tidy home is a safe home, says Pauline Brimhall, health specialist, University of IflinMs College of Agrculture." Most Of the accidents in homes are caused by carelessness. A tidy homemaker doesn't clutter stairs and passageways. She doesn't keep her broom or mop on the basement atepe where it can fall and trip tlx unwary. A tidy homemaker doasn't keep cloths that have been used for polishing furniture or waxing floors. She washes cleaning cloths or throws them away. Many fires begin in closets whert such cloths are stored. A tidy homemaker takes time to wipe up the bit of grease or food that spills on the kitchen floor. When "such spots are l«ft on linoleum or nlastic tile, they court disaster. A tidy homemaker doesn't leave medicines, sedatives jcfr. keven a bottle cf aspirin with® reach of curious youngsters. A tidy homemaker. makes sup that her home is a safe home fbr her family.
