Games, ice cream, pop, and a fancy cake was a baseball player on top all helped to make a little boy tired but very happy. Wonder Lake was thrown into a turmoil last Sunday night when Mrs. Joan Spielman reported her 3 year old daughter missing about 6 p.m. Fire department, rescue squads, police, and all neighbors including Gait Airport began the search. Karen's father had gone to Chicago on a call and could not be located at the time. Every inch of the area around Wonder Woods was searched including the lake but no Karen. When her father returned to Wonder Lake late Sunday night his embarrassment knew no bounds when he saw all the confusion. He had taken Karen with him to the city. Apparently he had called to tell his wife he was taking her and she had not heard him., Karen's only comment was "Why are you crying, Mommy?"

Kiwanis News The Kiwanis Club of DeKalb have invited the Wonder Lake Kiwanis to attend their farm field day to be held during the month of October. Anyone wishing to attend can get more information and make arrangements through Lenny Freund. Program for the evening was a talk on "Wills" by Frank Higgins. In this talk, Mr. Higgins pointed out the various ways in which a will can best serve the wishes of the person making it out. ,He noted that a person may draw up his own will, but statistics prove the will probably won't be any good. Following his talk, questions from the floor brought out some fine points about the legality of wills, and the competency of persons to make out their own directives of estate. Heading For Warmer Climes Two long time residents left our area in the past week -- one permanently and the other until spring.

Vacationers It was reported to me that the vagabond Gallas families are at it again. They were seen loading up for another trek to the wilds of Wisconsin last week. According to my informant, the car was loaded with camping equipment, groceries, chairs, kids, and grownups. There was only one drawback. When everything was loaded there was no room for Ed. We couldn't find out whether they tied him on behind the car, draped him across the hood of the car or let him walk but I" think some provision was made for him. The master of our household is also vacationing this week. Leo left on Wednesday morning of last week to drive to Orillia, Ontario, Canada, where he is spending a week visiting his sister and her familly. She is the only member of his family near enough for him to visit. The rest are all in Holland. He will return Thursday night and I know I won't have half the work done that I planned on doing while he was away, but my intentions are good. Ringwood-Wonder Lake Home Makers Extension Unit At the regular meeting of the Ringwood unit on July 3, it was voted to change the name of the unit to the Ringwood- Wonder Lake unit. It was noted that the Ringwood unit was the oldest existing continuous unit and it would be unfortunate to lose that honor. However, it was felt that for potential members the Wonder Lake name should be incorporated into it since many are from that area. Therefore, the name was changed as noted above. Meetings are in the afternoon of the first Tuesday of each month. The last meeting was our annual picnic at the home of Mrs. D. Swanson. The lesson for the September meetings will be "What's new in the Home Furnishing Market." If anyone is interested in joining please call Mrs. Mardell Swanson at 385-2426.

The Amazon River is so wide at its mouth that it takes a plane a half hour to cross it. There are 1100 known tributaries, 10 of which are larger than the Ohio or the Rhine. It contains an island (Marajo) l a r g e r t h a n S w i t z e r l a n d , pushes its muddy water some 150 miles into the Atlantic, and has, with its tributaries, 30,000 miles of navigable waterways. Tides reach 600 miles upstream, where the depth is still 500 to 600 feet. All forests standing in U. S. now, if in a single tract, would reach 380 miles wide and 2,500 miles long, or 5 acres for each person.
