R. Levesque reported to the board' of trustees at the last meeting on Jan. 21, that in the near future, an overhead electric light will1 be installed at the inter* section, of Route 31 and the McCullom Lake blacktop road. Any one who has approached this turn 011 a black night is aware of the poor visibility and several mishaps have occurred at this spot. This will be a boon not only to residents of our community., but to those of Lakewood subdivision and Wonder Lake, as well. A blinking red light from one direction and a blinking amber from the other was discussed hut vetoed, because this type of lighting seems to cause accidents, instead of eliminating them. & Watch for the installation! It will mean safer driving for all of us.

More Village Beard Notes During the past week, the engineers from Baxter and Woodman were in the village. making a preliminary survey for a sanitary disposal plant. The purpose of the survey is to arrive at a figure for which the plant could be erected. Their findings will be submitted to the board to determine whether to proceed with the project or abandon it at this time because the cost may be prohibitive. In any event, no action can be tak^n without the consent of the population, and you will be kept informed every step of the way! Acting chief of police Jack Schlofner was named to head civil defense in our community and he will receive assistance from John Fox who has already proved his interest in this endeavor.

McHenry Shores HOLD SHORES CLUB REGULAR MEETING AT VFW FEBRUARY 1 Patt Petersen - EV. 5-5425 Know Your Director Herbert F. Clauson has been a member of the board of directors of the M.S.C. for almost two years. His friends and neighbors know him as an active member of the community. His interest in politics has enabled him to feel a sincere responsibility for his job asj committeeman of Nunda "Township. Herb and his wife. Winifred, moved to McHenry Shores from Park Ridge it) 1959. Like many other residents of the "Shores" they moved out here with the intentions of leading the quiet life of country folks, however, it seems that this active couple are truly enjoying their busy life. Herb is an eager fisherman and is really looking forward to the time of long days, warm sunshine and placid waters. The Clausons both enjoy gardening and have a lovely yard. Herb attended the Lewis Institute of Technology in northwest Chicago and then went to night school to study mechanical and achitectural drafting. He owned and operated his own business in the building line in Chicago for many years. After selling his business he became semi-retired. While in school Herb was very active in many sports including basketball, tennis and bowling. He has always had a great love for roller skating and ice skating and at one time was quite good at speed skating. A most important figure in the household is Fancy Dancer, the Clausons' pet poodle. In the summer the Clausons can be seen enjoying their boat on the river and if you look close enough we think you just might see Fancy Dancer at the helm trying her hand at being a sailor. Herb and Winifred have two children, Betty and Harry, who are both married. They arc understandibly proud of their two grandchildren. f Youth Sunday It is so often the case that our youth are never mentioned in the news unless preceded hy a tale of crime and juvenile delinquency. There are some "ac$> of youth" however, that are to be commended and one such case is the observance, in all Lutheran churches, of Youth Sunday. Patt and Bob Petersen are two of the counselors for St. Stephan's Lutheran church in Carpentersville and have been working with the young people of their congregation on the preparation of their observance of Youth Sunday. The Petersens have worked with the youth of their church for several years now and have found that each year the young people respond more and more. Injury to Elderly Woman We were sorry to hear of the ankle injury suffered by Mrs. Celia Mueller, mother of Mr. Clarence Mueller, 3204 Terrace drive, on Sunday, Jan. 21.

Here and There Joe and Emily Reznicek. their newly engaged daughter and her fiahce spent Saturday afternoon down at the channel ice fishing and skating.

Ray and Barbara Pogor entertained Barbara's brother and his family over the weekend. They all went tobogganing and had a marvelous time. Clarence and Irene Mueller entertained Irene's sister and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. John Mtk-al of Elmhurst, in their home this past weekend.
