A note of interest to all of Us -- McHenry hospital has the equipment and trained personnel to make daily tests of pol- . lution from fall out resulting from current nuclear tests. It is a comfort to know that this information is available to us, and in the event of any dangerous amounts recorded, we would be notified by local authorities through several channels-- one of them being this newspaper. Those who attended the meeting had the opportunity to ask questions and received a booklet put out by the office of Civil Defense mobilization entitled, Family Fallout Shelter. The program was followed Tby the regular business meeting and a bake sale. The next meeting will be held on Dec. 13 and will feature the annual Christmas party and grab bag.
