Lil Orlowski is real happy to be out of the wheel chair and enjoyed Thanksgiving doubly, since the doctor had taken her foot out of the cast. We are happy to report the little chapel on the Johnsburg road has been restored to its original state. We are very happy the chapel has been left open to the public once again. Many of the Highlanders have spent many peaceful moments of prayers and meditation. Jack Rathnow of 205 Nipper sink is recovering from double pneumonia at the Columbus hospital. He will be confined there until after Christmas. A few cardsrwould help pass the long hours for him. Barb Schlick and^ her boy friend, along with another couple, attended the J i m Lounsberry record hop held in Lake Zurich, last Saturday evening. Herb and Loraine Lindemann spent last Sunday visiting Herb's brother and family, the Wally Lindemanns in Antioch. We believe in giving bouquets to folks while they can enjoy them, so to Marie Schlick we would like to send an especially nice bouquet. Marie is a good neighbor to everyone and always ready to lend a hand where she is needed most. She has been taxiing folks to McHenry to doctors and shopping. She helps in sickness and always sends goodies to those confined folks. This reporter. Kay. has been a recipient of many of her good deeds. Frank Krumwiede enjoyed a week's vacation, so he took the family to his folk's farm in Wisconsin. The kiddies had a ball and hated to come home. Betty Sandelin spent last week visiting with her mother in Broadview. Mrs. Rilla Wilkenson spent the last three weeks visiting with her niece in Danville. Mrs. Wilkenson is one of the Highlanders senior citizens and is very spry and very active. Blanche Haefliger had her sister visiting with her last week. Dan Johnson is still looking for the owner of the lost puppy * he took in. Marcia Dowd's folks, the Diekmans of Chicago, brought their turkey dinner with them and shared their holiday with Marcia and the kiddies. Many of the parents in the Highlands attended the parent teacher conferences last Monday and Tuesday evening at St. John's school. It gave the parents a chance to have a good talk with the Nuns about their children and what they are doing in school. Roy Snell attended the dinner held in McHenry, Dec. 1, for the folks who had volunteered to assist in the fund drive for the McHenry hospital. Roy will be the chairman for the fund drive in the Highlands.

Woman's Club Xe\vs The regular monthly meeting of the Woman's® club was held last Tuesday Nov. 24, at the community center. It was a very windy cold evening and twenty-seven woman braved the cold to attend. They played games and each member gave their special thing they were thankful for. The hostesses for the evening were Mrs. Mares, Jeanne Baron. Beverley Lewandowski. A \ot of candy was sold at the rrteeting. The December meetin^will be held at the Johnsburg Community center on Dec. 22. Each member is asked to bring a 50 cent grab bag gift.

We hope Pat will be home soon and feeling like her old smiling self. Marcia Dowd is a bit sore these days since she has been "the patient in the Red Cross first aid course. Being flipped from one side of the bed to the other while it is being made can be strenuous work for the patient.

It seems that your reporter's (Haze) has been under a constant cloud of sickness since I came home from the hospital. Just last week two of my boys had the stomach flu and not to be outdone I joined in with them.
