Page Twelve THE McHENRY PLAIJNDEALER Village of Sunnyside McmyEnjoy Social Evening Irma Onnther--1577-J Well, all of us who showed up for the social last Saturday sure had a very good time. The gentleman from the telephone company showed two wonderful movies and one especially I think most of us were interested in because it showed the interesting places people could go to visit without an admission charge. They would be very educational for the children. Delicious food was the climax of a very pleasant evening. Thursday, January 29, 1959 Spring Grove START SCHOOL CAMPAIGN AT ST. PETER'S by Mrs. Charles Freund TV Programs A few weeks ago when _ "Queen Fbr A Day" was in Ch^ago Leah Fritz went to see it along with her mother and two sisters. She said all of the people present put their cards in a container from which a certain amount is drawn and the twelve judges pick four to tell their stories, so when there are over 4,000 persons present and only four end up as the chosen ones, you know how much of a chance you have to be the lucky one. Farewell to a Landmark We all bow our heads in a farewell tribute to our oldest resident, William Ricks, who passed away in Peoria where he went each winter. We will miss him come spring and mostly he will be missed by the neighbors for whom he did small favors like taking care of bills that had to be paid in town or anything that the people couldn't do because they worked. A fond farewell to a fine old man. Fate sure works in many unexpected ways because when Mr. Ricks' daughter buried her father little did she know that a few days later she would be doing the same thing for her husband. Our sympathy goes out to her. Fourteen parishes in McHenry County are taking part in a United Action campaign to raise a million dollar building fund for Marian Central Catholic high school which will be located on the outskirts of Woodstock. , This week volunteer workers will solicit the parishioners of St. Peter's church insf Spring Grove. A thirty thousand dollar goal is anticipated in pledges., which are for a period of three years. Father Daleiden, pastor of St. Peter's, asks that you be courteous to the men who call on you. These men have already made their pledges and are also giving their time to this "worthy cause. Be generous as it is a once in a life- j time chance to contribute to a t much needed Catholic high' school which can provide the best social, vocational and economic education plus the Christ centered teaching that every Catholic youth deserves.

McHenry Shores SUBDIVISION SHOVELS OUT OF HEAVY SNOW Louise Winters--289.7 The weather seems to be the chief topic of conversation these days; and that storm last week will keep us talking for a long time. Not many of us spared the inconvenience of being stranded, and we just can't seem to enjoy an enforced vacation as well as those which we anticipate. Once the storm had spent its fury\ that moon certainly was beautiful, even if we were shovelling snow beneath it. From what we hear, this will be the last year with Idyll Dell our only exit, and there can't be another storm like that for a while, can there? Several couples enjoyed an evening of cards at the John Smiths on ..a recent Saturday night. Sharing pizfca later were the Muellers, the Gus Smiths, the Kleines and the Winters. Lakemoor Boy Scouts - Troop 131 held its bi-monthly parent night recently and Bob Schopp received his first class badge and pin. We understand it was a rough road, but he made it. Lee Whetherhult put on an interesting demonstration of electricity as he instructed radio and electricity to the first class scouts. Billy Lokay, Ray Olszewski, Tknd Mike Zohnar are other sobuts from McHenry Shores, and Ken Schopp is secretary and ^treasurer or' the troop. Hospital News McHepry Shores sent its quota to the local hospital last week. Helen Simonsen and Marie Cicchini were both expected home by now, and we know both would appreciate a card or call. Happy Birthday • To both Julie and Matt Zeimet who have the good fortune of sharing Jan. 26 as their birthdays.. Does that mean only one birthday cake? Triple Birthday Celebration Sunday a family gathering was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Math Nimsgern to celebrate the birthdays of wanted all her friends there to see her ring. Birthdays j Doren Monte was 4 years old on Jan. 17. and helping in the \ celebrating were Mr. and Mrs. R. Thelen, Mr. and Mrs. H. Thelen and daughter, Sandy, and Mr. and Mrs. Nick Miller from Milwaukee. Most of us around here think LaMarr Williams is great because last week instead of getting himself a birthday present he went and bought his wife, Chris, a dryer.. Pretty nice guy don't you think? Joe Metzer had his birthday Saturday, Jan. 24. Double Birthday Celebration Mrs. Edna Olson entertained Mrs: Albert Olson and Mr. and Mrs. Lee Gagnebin, son, Lee, at her home on Saturday in honor of the birthday of Mrs. Olson and her own. Cards were played and a lovely lunch was served. RECEIVES SENTENCE Thomas Ketchum, 19, of Burton's Bridge has received a sixty-day sentence to Vandalia. He was charged with malicious mischief. Snow Clean-up Wouldn't you know when a good deed is done something spoils it. Monday while the children were in school, Mr. and Mrs. G. Mecko, Mrs. F. Beier, Mrs. V. Mondl of Pistakee Terrace and yours truly cleaned all of the snow off of the ice and the kids were sure surprised when they came home 1 from school and found out the \ work was done for them, and then what happens two days later, we get more snow then we ever needed. The kids did the shovelling this time. Imagination: The idea that price and wage controls can be established by voluntary cooperation. Visits and Visitors Mr. and Mrs. Robert Warnock from Dixon were surprise visitors last weekend at the Gerald Morrisses.

They had the time of their lives sliding down Still Hill, which is beginning to rival the Country Club in popularity for sledding. News and Views Karen Lindwall was thrilled with her first dance and first orchid recently when Bruce Bradley of Chicago took her to the Starlight and Roses dance at the high school. From all reports the decorations were beautiful and the whole affair will be long remembered. Welcome home to Bob and Lu Poggensee who have been living in Antioch |or several months.

A research team of scientists, pharmaceutical chemists and physicians are continuously studying the causes of the different diseases. Once they are known, it is only a matter of time before cures are discovered. Physicians now have better methods of diagnosis and treatment. Medicines are formulated to attack the cause. Sometimes, if we have no known chemical that will help, 0111s* chemists invent one by synthesis. That is why the medicines your physician now prescribes can help you more than ever before. • YOUR PHYSICIAN CAN PHONE McHENRY 26 WHEN YOU NEED A MEDICINE • Pick up your prescription if shopping near us, or let us deliver promptly without extra charge.
