Firemen Join Drive Wonder Lake volunteer firemen have filed their year end report. With it, they have, sent an appeal to .the people of .the if face district to' support the building program of the Memorial hospital at Woodstock, only twenty minutes away .from Wonder Lake. The firemen ask that all per* sons who have riot pledged a donation to the hospital fund do s6 through their fire department. The smallest donation will bier welcome. Wonder Lakers have ready secured $28,275 in pledges toward the planned new building. The hospital now is usually so ; over-crowded that patients are bedded in the halls. Enough money has been raised for a 75- bt^d hospital (we now have a 50- bed one) but the goal is money for a 100-bed hospital, the true need for the county based on the continuous influx of new people. Miss Man da Hoe, superintendent of the hospital, said recently that- a hospital should • nftver be more than 85 per cent filled. There should always be a few empty beds ready for- emergency use. The Memorial hospital is nearly always closer to 100 p$r cent filled and there have been instances of several wounded people being sent away after first aid treatment because rio beds yrere ready. Any major disaster might mean a higher loss of people than necessary. The fire department reports that through the carnival held last summer, $3,367.70 was raised arid the money was used to outfit the rescue squad ambulance and to purchase new hoses, fittings, nozzles and ladders. Also, a new foghorn fire- siren has been installed. The department still owes $2,925 in outstanding bonds issued to build the fire house. The men hope to retire these within the next two years. Auxiliary Parties Two card parties held by members of the Memorial hospital auxiliary have netted the building fund more money. The Indian Ridge group met at the home of Louise Johnson for a Christmas party and had a gift exchange as well as having a donation toward the hospital fund. Also donated was ten cents per person to be used for the hot roll fund for the annual dinner given by the county-wide auxiliary. Those present at the party included Kay Boldt, - Elaine Sehwarz, Melvina Knackstedt, Lorraine Moore, Lillian Meiswinkel, Phyllis Letizia, Miriam Corcoran, and Peggy Zandier. Gloria tacMann was co-hostess. Mrs. Zandiei* has suggested that all auxiliary groups donate ten cents per person at each meeting for the hot roll fund and then the money will be ready when needed and no special planning for the fund will be necessary. Another recent auxiliary party was held by the Shore Hills group at the home of Judy Rasmussen. A total of $6 was turned into the building fund. Those present included Frieda Hoefler, Gertrude Lange, Marie Milbrandt, Jean Motulewicz, June Kiddoo, Neva Fuhrer and Barbara Thomas. • The recently . formed Luther League of Winder Lake's Nativity Lutheran church held 'its first party Sunday night. This was a Christmas party and a ljxge group of 'teen-age young people from Wonder Lake and McHenry were present. Sandi Sells and Sandi Monteleone were in charge of the games. Mrs. Inez Kreuger, representing the women of the church, served refreshments. The young people were introduced for the first time to the pastor's wife. The Rev. Burton Schroeder was married in Pennsylvania during the Thanksgiving holiday. His wife, a student in Pittsburgh university, returns to school after the new year. She will be graduated in February and will join her husband in Wonder Lake. Carlson Hospitalized John Carlson of Wonder Lake is a patient at Memorial hospital in Woodstock. Carlson was recently involved in an accident on the McCullom Lake blacktop with a car driven by Jerry Cristy of Wonder Lake. It was not determined whether Carlson's hospitalization has any connection with the accident.

Meeting time is 8 p.m. and Mrs. Harry Stinespring, Jr., or McHenry will be the speaker. The youth choir of the church will sing, featuring Nancy Swanson as soloist.

Is Now Accepting Classified Advertising For Th* McHenry Plaindealer All Ads For Thursdsys Paper Must Be Placed By 5 p.m. on Tuesday - WE'VE seen some high peaks of interest in our new cars over the years -- but never anything like this. Since the day we unveiled these glamorous new Buicks, people have been coming in--not only to see and study and sit in these great cars--but, very definitely, to drive them. They want, it seems, a firsthand taste of the thrills that Buick engineers have conjured up for this new year. And who can blame them? For the word's around that Buick has what no other car has--a new kind of performance from a new kind of transmission. It's called Variable Pitch Dynaflow Drive.* It uses the principle of the modern airplane's variable pitch propeller. And it does in oil what that aeronautical marvel does in air. At one pitch of the blades inside the Dynaflow unit, you get more fuel efficiency in normal cruising and driving--which means better gas mileage, pure and simple. But push the gas pedal beyond the full throttle position and you switch the pitch. Instantly, you get electrifying response -- a sudden safety-surge of accelerating power to get you quickly out of a tight spot--and with the absolute smoothness that is constant in Dynaflow Drive. IV! ay be you, too, have made a mental resolution to drive a '55 Buick--but why wait? We're ready, willing and eager to let you try one -- feel the spectacular new power that gives life to this bounteous beauty -- and see for yourself that here is a performance thrill too exciting to miss. Drop in on us this week, won't you? * Stanford on Ro^Jmssttr, optiomd txtrs cost M 6tb*r Strhl. vf Thrill of the year MILTON BERLE STARS FOR BUICK-So Itw Buick-terf* Show Aliaraott Timdsy Evwl««i R.
