It was really a double celebration since it was also his folks' thirtieth anniversary. Congratulations to all of them. We're sorry to hear that Charlotte Haase recently spent some time in Garfield hospital for surgery. We hope she is home by and that she has a very Jy recovery and is feeling in merry spirits for the coming holiday season. Welcome to newcomers, Howard and Betty Hart, and their* son at 402 Ann street and to the "George Neesan family at 407 ' Broadway. We hope they"; will both like it here and be very happy once the decorating is done. Walter Minton received the _ of seeing his first greatgrandchild when he visited • little Tommy Warczak. He came all the way from Kentucky to see him and his family and he enjoyed his visit very much. Round and Round the subdivision the mumps are making their merry rounds. The latest puffed up victims are Kathy aynfer, Barbara Kolb and Jeane Janquart, Jackie Thelen and his mom. Jimmy Mclnerny. The only consolation is that the victims are usually not to sick and are only out of circulation for a week or so. That Big Day is just next Thursday and everyone is busy making plans for the company and a big dinner with all the trimmings (except Mr. Turfley, that is). I hope all of you ave the happiest Thanksgiving ever, with lots of blessings to thank the good L-ord. Happy holiday and don't eat too much. luck to them both and many more happy years ahead.

The small group finally ended up as nine lively girls who had .lots'of fun (with lots of food) at the Rodge homestead. After an evening light .nibbling, they reordered, and got, hamburgers about midnight from Mama Hazel. After that they spent the night doing >lots of things but not sleeping. Finally, at the crack of dawn, they decided to have some french toast, go home and catch up on their sleep. The lively nine were Trudy Rogde, Ginger Cinamie, Lou Leakey, Arlene Barbarsky, Jan Peloquin. Pat Johnson, Marion Mueller, Linda Klatt and Karen Disher. Across the street on Rand Drive, Dudd Gregg gave his neighbors a pleasant surprise when he returned from a hunting trip in Iowa and presented them with a pheasant. The dinner was enjoyed by all. Dee Gregg went to Chicago for a few days with her family last week and had a very nice visit. plans they are making tor the future year. Oops Sorry I recently got the Sinicin family a little mixed up in a recent item. Jo Sinicin is the woman of the family, not Joe and the head of the house is John Sinicin. Sorry. - Please keep the news coming for the column and I'll do my best to keep it in print. If you have any news I would appreciate it if you would try to call me Thursday since the deadline for the column is Friday for the following week's paper. Don't forget, Wanda, 583-R-l. 35TH GRAIN SHOW HOUSED IN NEW, SPACIOUS QUARTERS Post 491 Down Meadow Lane ! (If you would like to see a regular article each week about what goes on down your street like this one on Meaddw Lane, Just have the block captain or jflome kind shoul in your neighbor- 'hood collect the chatter each week and get it to me by Thursday like Kay Sielisch does down Meadow Lane way.) Lou Tomao returned home last week and is feeling pretty good after his recent operation. We hope tie is up and well enough to be back to work soon. . , Dickie- Morley -has-been home .for a few days with a severe cold. ®Me misses school and will be glad to get back with his chums. The Hinsleys of 205 Meadow Lane have been busy getting settled in their new home and have been painting and working hard. They hope W>n to be able to sit back and take it easy. Kay Sielisch was one of the lucky ones to spot sputnik recently when it streaked across the •sky. No reports of little men or 'Marking dogs though. Dick and Hazel Morley are celebrating their sixth wedding anniversary on Nov. 14. They will "do the town" but Hazel doesn't know yet where or how. It will be Dick's surprise to her. Good Party Program Nov. 24 is the Sunday set for the social afternoon of this month at the community center for association members. If you feel lucky and ready for fun, make it a point to come. Plans are * rolling for the big New Year's eve party at the center and though nothing is too definite at present, it promises to b'e one of the best parties of the year. Program Chairman Floyd Johnson and his committee will be working on the happy details. Spacioug. new quarters on ground floor level are in promise for exhibitors and visitors' at the International Grain and Hay Show, held as a part of the International Live Stock Exposition in the International Amphitheatre of the Chicago Stock Yards. The big "show window of agriculture" is slated for Nov. 29 through Dec, 7 this year. It will be the" thirty-fifth annual grain and hay show but the fifty-eighth edition of the livestock exhibition. New grain show quarters are in Donovan Hall, a 110,000 square foot addition to the Amphitheatre adjoining the cattle hall to the south of the .main building. A refurbishing job is nOw in process to make the gfain show more attractive than in other years, according to W. E. Ogilvie, Exposition manager. Sea Scouts The Sea Scouts are currently making plans to sell Christmas trees in the vicinity of the community center for the holiday season. The boys will do all of the work themselves and any profit will go into the Sea -Scout treasury. We hope everyone will give them -some much needed, support in this project and help them to progress with some of the big REVOKE LICENSES Announcement has been made by Secretary of State Charles F. Carperitier of the revocation of drivers' licenses to Lavern E. Brown, Rt. 1,-Spring Grove, driving while intoxicated; William Fick, Crystal Lake and Roger W. Hefner, Rt. 2, Woodstock, three offenses, suspension of licehses; and Lino Mardegan, Rt. 1, Algonquin, three of fences, chauffeur's license. Buy U-S. savings Bonds At the October meeting of Post 491, the Rev. Kerr was invited to act as a guest speaker. He spoke of the deeds and accomplishments of his Woodstock Children's home and of the need for continued'support by the public. The members present decided that his home was worthy of support by the post and voted .to contribute to its support in the same manner as was done last year. That is td match the contribution of the auxiliary of Post 491 and present the total as one gift. At the recent house committee meeting of Post 491, other important decisions were reached. The mosi important, to the people of this community, was the question of a contribution to the Me- Henry Community hospital drive. Present to speak to the committee and answer their questions was Frank Gregory. Members of the committee- were divided on question, just as other people are . divided, as is evident by the letters appearing in the Plaindealer. As the American Legion may be looked to for an opinion on this question it was decided first that a contribution from the Legion must benefit the people "on both sides of the fence." The only fair way to go this, it was deceided, is to contribute an equal amount to the McHenry Community hospital drive and to the hospital in Woodstock. The representatives of the auxiliary agreed to this proposal also, TTie final decision then was to have the post and auxiliary, jointly donate $1000, half to go to McHenry and the other half to go to Woodstock. Final approval of the donation must come from the post but this approval is just about a certainty as the post asked the house committee to study the question and present a fair solution. The auxiliary already has the approval of its members to join the post in its decision. The annual baseball dinner in honor of our champion American Legion junior baseball team was held on Thursday, Oct. 31st. After consuming quantities of fried chicken, potato salad, milk, hot rolls, . ice cream and chocolate fudge cake, the team had the opportunity of meeting Jim "Ripper" Collins, former first baseman in the National league. Also present to offer their congratulations to the team were Mayor George Freund, Sports Editor Earl Walsh, Manager Tom Bolger, Immediate Past Commander Dr. John T. Gray, Commander Edwin Reid, Senior vice - commander Robert •Hendricks and Umpire in" Chief William Scheer. Speaking of dinners. Junior Vice commander Harry Mueller came up with a real feast for the members at the October meeting. He served hot chicken pies, turkey pies and beef pies, potato chips and fresh salted peanuts with plenty of cold beer. He followed this success with another when he held a masquerade party on Oct. 26. Senior Vice-Commander Robert Hendricks reports he already has well over. 425 members signed up for 1958. It looks as though another record year is ahead for the post. Last year, which was also a. record high for membership, showed a final figure of 521. It won't take many more to push the Crystal Lake post off their second place pinnacle and in fact, not too many more to become the highest in McHenry county, which is our ultimate goal. All members of the post and many members of the community are sorry to hear that John Dreymiller, our service officer, is in Hines hospital and is expected to stay there for about two months. John was always ready to help veterans with needed transportation and advice when they required hospital care. Now that he himself is in the hospital, let's see that he has plenty of visitors, cards and news. >The new south addition to the building has been completed. Originally we had figured on all volunteer help but the advancing cold weather and the real need for the additional space forced us to contract for most of the work. At the last house committee meeting it was decided that those who did do work cn a volunteer basis should be given a token payment or gift for their generously given time plus the thanks of a grateful membership. - Harold Vycital, chairman of our Sons of the Legion Drum and Bugle Corp. still has a few openings for drummers iind buglers who are sons of Legion members. Experience is not needed, instructions arid instruments are furnished by the post. The new name for this gipi^> is the "Viscounts." All their arums have" now been refinished in the new colors, blue and black, with appropriate designs. All metal parts have been chrome plated. Is it really that late? I guess it is because the post announces that early reservations are in order for the coming New Year's Eve party. Due to the very large attendance at the parties in the last couple of years, plans have been completed for some time now. Table space will be by reservation only, with a top limit of 200 reservations. Don't be among those who waited too long. A late repbrt advises us that our north entrance way and double door will be installed in about one week. This will make the parking lot entrance the main entrance for the building. It is planned to install a suitable canopy over this new entrance as soon as possible. John T. Gray, Publicity Chairman.
