Thursday, August 4. 1960 THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Lakemoor GIRL SCOUTS .ENTER DISPLAY IN COUNTY FAIR A Sally Lubke Troop 309 entered a display in the McHenry County fair this week which is being held at the ^ounty fair grounds outside Woodstock this weekend, Aug. 4, 5, 6, 7. This is the first time the girl scouts from Lakenjoor have ever entered into the competition. The display which they are entering has to 4) with the laws of the Girl Scouts and* illustrates them. To qualify, the display had to be made by the girls themselves. I know that the girls worked very hard on it and we are all hoping that it will take a blue ribbon home with it. It would be nice if most of the villagers could get out to the fair grounds and see the work that Oiu* girls have been doing. The uRplay will be on exhibition with the 4-H show. Let's all try to get to Wpodstock and see it! because he had hoped to make it his career. Dori is home now. Return from Camp The two young iadies. Pat Morrison and Katherine Brezzinski, returned home from Girl Scout camp in Wisconsin last week. They enjoyed it very i»Hch, even the field hike with full pack. The girls were there for two weeks, roughing it. They lived in tents and slept beneath the stars. An eight mile bicycle trip was one of the many highlights of their stay. Discharged from Service Last month, I reported that Don Kibbe had enlisted in the Force and that he was on his way to basic training in Texas. Well, Don has received a medical discharge from the air force. Due to an injury Don received last winter when wrestling, he received this discharge. The injury was the dislocation of his shoulder and it seems that any manual movement of the arm will throw it out of place again. iDis too bad that Don was unable to stay in Ihe Air Force Birthdays Belated wishes go to Mrs. Ben ha Berger who celebrated her birthday last Friday. July 29. I sure hope that you had a happy one and that you will have many more. Happy birthday to Ophelia Brady who celebrates her birthday, this Friday. Aug. 5. Mary Dunn, who is still recuperating from her fall out here at her sister's home, celebrated her birthday, Aug. 3. We are happy to hear that her cast was removed last week. Sorry that your birthday had to be spent with your leg in a brace. Hope it was a happy one anyway.

Mrs. Maxson is the former Nancy Chadwick of Lakemoor. their bikes along the highway it should be explained that they can be the cause for someone getting hurt or killed. It is very dangerous, for them to ride their bikes back and forth across'the highway. Approaching cars may seem to be slowing down but what if their brakes should fail and. the child get hit. Then will it be the fault of the driver and the child who was certain that he could make it across before the car reached that spot? Let's try to remember that safety is everyone's job. not only the person who is driving but those{ who are along the highway also.

The Girl Scout troop, here in Lakemoor, is looking for a woman who has a Red Cross certificate and would be willing to help them out by going on an over-night excursion with them. The over-night would probably be over a Friday night. Any woman who is ready, willing and able, should get in contact with Mrs. Morrison,' EV 5-6396. Your help wil be greatly appreciated. Along the Highway Two complaints have been | brought to me this past week I about the , children who arc along the highway everyday. [The first complaint was that of I throwing stones at arid in the cars parked in front, of the buildings/ in town. The second ! compjtftnt was that Of riding j their bikes along the highway. jBoth of these complaints are very serious. I don't believe that these children are a wart of the danger there is in the i actions they are doing. I don't think that those who are throwing the stones stop to think of the damage they can cause by merely tossing a stone , into a car. Parents should try | to make their children aware ! of tjle fact tha^ they can cause serious accidents by throwing stones.
