Ladies of the Lake Tonight, Oct. 27. will be strictly social for the gals and their friends. The theme is in keeping with the season, for it is a krr.zy hat party. Everyone is asked to come equipped with strange bennots and the strangest one will take home a prize. <3^ies will be played and refreshments will be served, with Alice Gustafson and Elsie Nelson doing the baking.

We'll miss every one of them -- Evelyn especially, for she was as gracious and efficient a baby sitter as this community has seen in a long" time. Let's hope they will come back to say "hi" once in awhile. It Can Happen All of us who are mothers have at least once seen our youngsters perched in a precarious position, closed our eyes and said "I can't watch, but they'll make out OK". Ann Nye looked out of a window last week to see her 5 year old Barbara straddling the top bar of p-m equipment in a neighbor's yard. Horrified, she watched her fall. Barbara broke feer left wrist, badly enough to be hospitalized over night and will wear a cast. for the next 6 to 8 weeks. The little lady is doing just fine, but mamma still gets a few iilters. Can't blame her, can you? returning health and happiness in her new home. Baptism On Sunday, Oct.. 30, little Michael David Walter, son of Mr. and Mrs. Bill Walter, will be carried to the baptismal font at Nativity Lutheran church of Wonder Lake by his paternal uncle and aunt, Christ and Bea Walter. After the ceremony, mother Gert will spread the festive board in honor of this solemn occasion in her young son's life, and I'll just bet he'll take the whole thing right in Stride. I'roud Aunt and uncle, that is, are Elsie and Don Fluger, and riehtly so. Don's sister was anticipating a blessed event, her first. On Oct. 18. it arrived -- plural. Mrs. Margaret Duval had twins, a boy and a girl, each 6 lbs. j>lus! The proud papa's name is George Duval and the family resides in Park Forest. Congratulations to the happy family and to auntie and uncle too, who are planning to take a good peek at the new arrivals as soon as possible. "Hot" Property Was the lable, a bike the article,, and Linda Dason the innocent "culpret"! While Ev and Bud Harrison prepared for the move to Spring Grove, Linda kept their son. Dicky, at home for a day. He rode his bike to the Dasons in the morning, and in the evening mom and dad picked him up in the car. Par for the course, Dicky forgot his bike. On moving day for the Harrisons, the bike was naturally not in its usual place, so it was assumed stolen and reported so to the police. Linda later learned about the "theft" and a prompt call to Spring Grove corrected the situation. The Harrisons relieved Linda of her "hot" property and in- Ooodbye To Mrs. Elizabeth Petersen, who will leave her present location to return to Chicago.

Ma has been ill these many months and we wish her Growing That's exactly what the fund for ihe community building is doing, thanks to the tireless efforts of Frank and Betty Poledna and Ed and Louise Hammerstein.
