McDermott, village president, escorted some of the trustees and inspectors throughput the village last Saturday, May 11, making a thorough inspection of roads, septic tanks, building and zoning violations and violations of the weed ordinance. Many property owners will be receiving official Jnotices from the village to tle&r weeds and brush off of their vacant property, or the work will be done by the village and a lien filed against the property for the cost of clearing. Weed covered property is not only unsightly but constitutes a fire hazard. Many property owners have already taken it upon themselves to clear and clean up properties which did not oven belong to them, but" Avhich adjoined their property^ This was done in the spirit pi neighborl'ness and for the good of those having to look at the" filthy fields. Cleared fields which until now have lain dormant can become a garden spot or wonderful play-yard for the j children who ordinarily would; leave their own vicinity in search of a cleared spot for play. In the I heat of summer months these lit- j tered fields, if they reach near j your property, could possibly catch fire and cause the loss of your home.--This is your town. I your home, your pride.

Village News From the office of the Village Clerk comes these messages; Due to the vast amount of business confronting the village board, the meeting was called to order at 7:30 p.m. last Thursday instead of the scheduled 8:30 p.m. calling. Following the opening of the meeting the village president, Claude F. McDermott administered the oath of office to the village clerk, Richard J. Hyatt, who in turn administered the oaths to the other newly elected officials for the respective positions. The following appointments were made by the village president, and confirmed by the village board. Claude E. Vachet for the position of village treasurer; Dr. Urban V. Comes as health officer; William A. Gibson once again to the office of electrical inspector; Clarence Sosong for sanitation inspector; and Joseph X. Waynne L.I.A. One step ahead, always working, seems to be the slogan of the L.I.A. Connections were made over the last weekend concerning the erection of the shelves for the library, which will be under process or partially completed by the time this paper goes to press. The most modern of shelves shall grace our library, complete with storage cabinets for records. Election of officers for the L.I.A. will take place the second Wednesday in July at the organization's regular monthly meeting. Plans for the installation are being made for the same time in August at the club's annual dinner party. At the meeting last Wednesday, the committee was appointed to start on plans for a Library carnival to be held this summer some time in August. The May party planned by the club to take place in the Fire-Community house on May 25 promises to be one of the big successes of the year. Ticket sales show a predicted sell-out. Try to attend, lend a helping hand, each bit of co-operation brings the opening of the library a little closer. Troop No. 441 Mrs. Beahler's troop has now officially received its new troop number and will henceforth be known as Girl Scout Troop Number 441.

Catncer Drive Here again we see the village with a heart as it very generously gave of its time and dollars to help the great fight against .cancer. Mrs. Elaine Gray, chairman of the Lakemoor area, notifies us that our village collected a grand amount of $106 for the fund which ended the last of April. _yMrs. Gray worked very hard on this project, along with her co-workers; Arlene Wade, Alberta Brossman, Mrs. Ayres, Florence Mix, Elsie Cynowa and Othele Brady. Only more proof that this village has a great heart and the spirit for helping where help is needed. Little Frankie Pogany was admitted to the McHenry hospital on Thursday last week with high fever and a serious internal infection. Frankie stayed in the hospital until Friday night when he was dismissed. To look ,at Frankie you'd think he had never been so seriously ill Complete Sneak-Preview This reporter was promised a sneak preview of the new Sarley home when construction was first started on the building. On Saturday, accompanied by Miss F. O'Rourke, we ventured to see the new structure. The house is nearly completed except toy a few minor details. Five rooms, decorated with the taste of an expert greeted us as we crossed the threshold. The home will be occupied by Mrf! and Mrs. Van of McHenry and these; folks will take possession! sometime this week. We wish'you young folks loads of luck and a friendly welcome to your surroundings and hope you will join with us in some of the activities this community has to offer.

The Parent- Teachers have planned to have a adult members and does in no way affect the Sunday school which will be held as always Sunday mornings at 10:30 a.m. The rumor given and circulated last week that the Sunday school is no longer in session is false.

Brownies Mrs. Lu Bitterman advises us that the brownie registration fee of $1.00 is due and shou)d be in her hands for the next meeting so that it may be turned over to the troop-organizer of the district by the end of May.

Highway Vs. Baby Only two weeks ago this reporter predicted a high\vay toll m our village, and printed warnings to both parents and drivers as to the lurking dangers of the road. These were serious warnings, not^ idle chatter. Now, the first in the series of nice weather driving has been completed. Little Cathy Sue Fergusen, three year old daughter of Don and Juanita Fergusen, met catastrophe on the highway in front' of the J. Kraus home last week. Ca^hy, no\y hospitalized at McHenry, suffers frpm a brokertVright leg, lac^ra tions about her face, nose, eyes, and body, and is one fp/ihappy little girl. The driver of the automobile has been ticketed for driving too fast for conditions and though one might consider saying many things, the fact remains that this may well have been your child, boy or girl, and that maybe vou might have been the driver of this automobile. The fact that little Cathy has been maimed, is in itself a deep and abiding fear for all parents. Many children venture out without even a second glance, feeling secure that our highway is not always so busy. Now, the traffic changes to summer tourists and vacationers and, such is not the case. Parents, please protect your own with that special warning that can only be understood by a child as coming from the home. This could have been you or yours. Think about it! McHenry Bible Church On Sunday, May 19, the church will hold their mother and daughter tea from 3 to 5 p.m. Mrs. Fredricksen will be speaker of the day £nd Mrs. William Hansen will oblige with vocals. Next Sunday morning for the 11 o'clock and 8 o'clock sexwices the preacher will be Eugene Owsley, four year student at the Northern Baptist Seminary.

To people in smaller commuiiities like ours, it is a special opportunity to express^ our gratitude to an institution™ which is so close to the maintenance of our good health. iAn outstanding characteristic of the American hospital system is the' number of small hospitals that compose that system. . Of the 5,237 shorttern^ general and special hospitals listed by the American Hospital association, 3,466 have fewer thqp 100 beds. Yet thesejA hospitals admit more than 5,- 300,000 patients each year. Even the smallest .hospital must be a complete medical unit. Although it may be small in terms of number of beds, it still must maintain most of the services found in the * largest hospitals. To do this, it must be staffed to care for us at any hour of the day or night. Even the smallest hospital 4 must 'be a complete medical unit. Although it, may be small in terms of number of beds, it still must maintain most of the services found in the largest hospitals. To do this, it must be staffed to care for us at any hpur of the day or night. To accomplish their mission of healing as successfully as they havenln the past, hospitals must look to their communities for new personnel. To help in this recruitment of hospital workers, National Hospital Week this year is emphasizing the importance and variety of hospital careers.
