Fourteen THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER TJiu^day, February 18, 19§§ Lakemoor SUZIE ATKINS BASKING IN FLORIDA SUN By Annette S?hmtt " Young Suzie Atkins, daughter of Mr. and. Mrs. Chester Atkins of Northlake road, left last week for a few weeks of Florida sunshine. Suzie has been feeling rather down in the dumps for the past several weeks and mom and dad have been quite concerned about her general health. Last week the opportunity arose for Suzie to go to Clearwater. Fla.. with her aunt and uncle from Indianapolis. She was put on the bus by the folks here and met by her aunt in Indianapolis. On Thursday last they started their trip South. We're sure the trip is all Suzie needs to snap out of her depression and that she will return in a few Weeks loaded down with a beautiful Florida tan and tales of all the wonderful times she's had.Oh. yes. about her school-, ing! Don't think that wasn't carefully planned. I've got a feeling that Suzie is going to have more fun with her assignments than her bathing suit! Gallon Home Burn* At seven o'clock on Wednesday, the villagers heard the fire siren sound. This was the morning that most of the commuters left home confident that they could make it into Chicago. The siren^ended and the truck came out. Watching the truck as it neared our corner we wondered why it was going so slow. No doubt at this very instant many of our commuters knew why any vehicle would be "going slow. The Engine had to fight its way through all that heavy snow and several drifts to make it to the scene. The McHenry truck was not far behind. Although every effort was made, the interior is very badly damaged and the Galions had to seek another place to stay u^- til work is completed on the building. I'll Be Seeing; You! Old phrase, new meaning. Rose and .foe Kinnerk . and i heir sons, Dan and Bud, have left the village for a spell. They left on Saturday, hag and baggage, chair and table into -the home formerly occupied by Mary / Weingart on Elm street in McHenry. This pu's Rose in the center of the shopping district and is she going to have a ball. And Dan will be close' to all his school and athletic activities As for Joe. He's a regular guy with in eye towards relaxing so Iv should b> right at home in his own easy chair no matter where they put it--So. long„ old friends, but expect to see us all at one time or another. Deadline Near inn March 1 has been Set as the deadline for all vehiclc licenses in the village. At' any time after the first of the month r> penalty will be affixed. Trucks depend on the weight. The same deadline has been set for dog lags. It might be a good tirm here and now to mention thr fact that a dog tag does not give a dog the license to run the streets. All dogs, even if they are wearing a tag are to be kept penned or leashed in the village limits. Never Better Marge Beahlor tells me that she heard from her son. Dick by telephone on Sunday. Dick as you probably know is serving with Uncle Sam's Air Force at McGuire Air Force Base in New Jersey. Says he's doing just fine, but just finished k. p. and was at the moment pooped. I kind of figured that sooner or later the upper brass would pick Dick to do some of that Kozy Parading Good luck, buddy, from all of us back home. Happy Birthday There's a fellow, in our neck of the woods that I've just been dying to s&y happy birthday to. He is no longer a voune lad. No sir. He is now old 1 enough to vote, work, marry, and slave for the rest of his life. But there are advantages to being twenty-one. Like being your own boss. Steve V e 11 e r -- Congratulations. You've made it! May you always look back on Feb. 10. 1960 as the day you became a man. And for anv interested females reading this. . . thi«= is leap year and he's one of the most eligible males in to^jv Here's a wee one for you. He's little Brian Kawell.
