Delivery drivers, friends coming to call, and especially fire fighters will be able to locate their destination with ease. These signs are not only useful but decorative as well and will prove their versatility many times in the future. -jr A public word of thaffkk to the hard-working crew is small payment, but at least they will know of the gratitude of every resident in the community. This is one big step forward toward putting out village on the map. Verbal orchids for the hours of hard labor go to many. We're grateful beyond words to all of them fpr the constructive work done in order to better serve their community. Ladles Of The Lake The gals met last Thursday for the ^ purpose of arranging- last jminute details for the feather 'party which was held Saturday night and to complete details for the next two projects.

We're On The Way Our much needed police patrol car will be a reality instead of a dream in the near future. The feather party held at McDonald's last Saturday night proved highly successful, with twenty plump, juicy birds finding new homes. Free refreshments were served to ft all who attended and the gathering^ was large. Jlist a word of reminder to all residents to attend the public party at the V.F.W. Saturday night, Dec. 3, 8 p.m., which will be sponsored by the Ladies of the Lake. Hey, fellas, this is a golden opportunity to give mama a treat and take her out for dinner. Give her a chance to display that pretty dress, jewels and fur coat at the dinner to be held at St. Mary's Sunday, Dec. 11, starting at 12:30 p.m. She will relish a holiday from Cooking and you'll be helping to buy that much needed squad car. Tickets may be purchased from any member of the organization. We hope to have it rolling before the first of the* year. M. L. Conservation Club A large group of interested sportsmen attended the meeting held at the beachhouse Sunday afternoon.

Giving Thanks--With Your Camera The last Thursday in November signals not only the official arrival of turkey and cranberry sauce, but the foregathering of family members who haven't been together for some time. This, <we feel, makes Thanksgiving Day a perfect occasion for picture-taking--especially group pictures which everybody always enjoys adding to an album collection. Though all of us will surely forget calories and diets in the face of the "groaning board," that's as far as we should go in emulating our Victorian ancestors! When it comes to taking family group pictures, stiff poses and stuffy formality are now as definitely out of date as the plush-parlor atmosphere' of Grandmother's day. In taking your group shapshots, there are a. few pointers you'll do well to remember. First of all, don't try to shoot too large a group at one time. You'll find two pictures are better than one--if nore than a half a dozen people are going to make up a single unit for your viewfinder. Next, be sure your subjects have a center of interest, or you may end up with a composition reminiscent of "the good old days" when a family picture meant stiff-necked poses and glassy-eyed stares! Just keep youi camei'a trained on the little conversational < groups that form naturally--perhaps three ox" four adults admiring the newest baby, or several of the small fry entranced by a pet kitten or puppy. Natural groupings such as these are your best bet because the subjects themselves are less likely tc be self-conscious or even aware that picture-taking is in progress And here's one more tip we'd like to pass along in connection with picturing any group of people. If you're using flash to light your snapshots -- and you probably will be when you shoot indoors at this time of year--try tc have all the members of youi group at approximately the same distance from the camera. Otherwise, your lighting on the subjeel will be uneven--with the person in the foreground appearing toe light, the one at middle distance about right, and anyone in thev background much too dark. --John Van Guilder Girl Scouts Troop 2 The meeting was called to order - HbjPv the president,- Jiartypa Doering. We gave the Girl Scout" promise. The secretary, Judy Hans, read the minutes from the last meeting. Nancy Fischer, the treasurer, gave her report. We talked about badges and year pins and discussed what parts of the uniform you must wear to get credit for the prize at the end of the year. The girls are to think about what they would like to make for Christmas gifts. Kathy Murphy brought cupcakes for the treat. Jean Borchardt will bring itihe next treat. We then had a discussion on the oldest buildings in McHenry. Some of the girls are still going to try to learn more about the history of McHenry. We ended the meeting with a goodnight circle. Gail Johnson, scribe ROAD CONTRACTS Checking proposals on road and bridge building jobs yj 17 counties, totaling $9,095,836, in Springfield last week, sta/te engineers listed the low bidders in the eighth and last road letting in Gov. William G. Stratton's highway construction program for 1955. Almost half of the .total amount thus being placed under contract is for bridge and grade separation work in Will and Madison counties on modernizing U.S. Route 66. This can be carried on during the winter months. A major objective of Governor Stratton's highway plans ever since he took office has been the conversion of Route 66 into a modern, four-lane divided expressway. The entire route between Chicago and St. Louis will be completed before the end of next year. John R. Skl>" tone.
