Why McHenry Shores WELCOME SON HOME FROM AIR FORCE DUTY by Louise Winters--2897 After awaiting his arrival for several weeks, Agnes and Clarence Schweikert finally welcomed son, Donald, home. He is an airman second-class in the Air Firce, and has just returned from an eighteen month tour of duty on Guam, as a member of the weather observation corps. His many tales to tell center more on his extracurricular activities as head instructor in the "South Seas Searchers," a skin and lung diving club, than they do concerning his work in the service. Naturally: Don started diving with an aqua-lung years ago up at Lake Geneva, never expecting to encounter sharks and octopuses in the South Pacific one day. He will be home for a month, and then will be stationed in Kansas. You can't get much farther from an ocean if you tried Don. kauff, Bea MacCallum, and Hazel McLaughlin from Sunnyside, tried to give winter a little shove by attending the International Garden Show at the Amphitheatre last week. The exhibitions were beautiful, but it won't be long before McHenry Shores will be beautiful, too. Men's Club Dinner The annual Methodist Men's club lady's night dinner was thoroughly enjoyed by several couples from McHenry Shores last week. The men actually cook and serve an excellent dinner to their wives, this year there were about 120 attending. Dick Barrows was one of the three cooks. In addition to the Barrows, the Dodges, Schopps, Olbinskis and the M a c C a l l u m s were p r e s e n t , with the wives especially enjoying a night free of dishes and cooking. Visitors The Muellers were hosts to Dr. and Mrs. Iwick of Lincolnwood, last week and escorted them to the annual St. Patrick's day dinner at St. Patrick's church. Wishful Thinking Helen Smith, Irene Middle- Happy Birthday To Jack Risting on Easter Sunday, and A belated happy birthday to little Susan Lamerand who was three years old on St. Patrick's day. The lucky little girl went to the circus and also saw the Easter Bunny for her birthday. Many happy returns to both. Birthday Party, Sandy Winters celebrated his tenth birthday with a supper party and trip to the show for seven of his friends. Craig Barrows, Ray Olszewski, Bob Schopp. Glen Tanner, Corky Olbinski, Michael Marchese, and brother, David, certainly seemed to enjoy themselves. The weather co-operated for a change, and Sandy was able to try out his new bike. Speaking as an interested bystander, the boys all behaved beautifully, we doubt if their mothers would recognize them, had they seen their impeccable manner. What a difference a few years makes in birthday parties. News and Views The monthly meeting of the WSCS at the Methodist church last week had a book review by Ann Varese as their main attraction, and it certainly attracked a full house. Enjoying the program and the tea from McHenry Shores were Ruth Dodge, Marion Barrows, Evelyn Tanner, Irene Middlekauff, Helen Smith, and Bea MacCallum..
