Eye Injury to Local Lad Ray Hastings was injured Sunday before last with a serious eye injury while playing with some of the neighborhood children. Since each child has a different version of the story it is still uncertain as to how the injury was sustained. He was sent to the hospital but happily was well enough to • ^return home within a few days. Camping Proven Ideal L Pastime The Tanners were off again last weekend on another camping jaunt. It has proven to be such a pleasurable pastime to them that we'll undoubtedly find them sleeping under the stars more than once this year. This trip they had company; A the Ziemets by name. The two families enjoyed a wonderful four days at Lake Winnebago, Wisconsin-High Cliff Forest State park. The men were lucky enough to catch some sand pike and large perch. Trip Across the Lake The Burkes: Tom, Pat, Cathy, Debbie and Jimmy, took a delightful excursion across the lake in one of the huge "lake liners". The trip carried them from Muskegan to Milwaukee and travel time was about six hours. Pat said it was ideal for parents with small children, for while the kids were being watched in the children's theater, Tom and Pat were able to dance in the ship's fair sized ballroom. Afterwards they stayed at a motel with a swimming pool which they all greatly enjoyed. New Deputy Sheriffs Jack Risting has resigned as deputy sheriff as of last week. I'm sure 'the rest of the community will voice their thanks along With mine to say we appreciate all the fine work he's done in this capacity. Anyone wishing the services of a deputy sherriff may now call either Fred Wetzel or Emmett Barden. New Driving: Hazards I know this subject is unquestionably harped upon but when I think how important our children are to us then I know that another mention can hot hurt. Since school has started there will be an added number of youngsters on the busy highways. The first few weeks of school are always exciting and the children are riot thinking about the approaching cars and whether or not they have looked both ways at a dangerous intersection. The driver must, of course, do both the child's thinking and his own. Please remember to stop behind school buses and travel the correct speed at school crossings. Birthdays Honored at Two Homes The Calvert and the Schmitt homes were both echoing with the strains of "Happy Birthday" last week. Missy Calvert was the first small celebrity as she celebrated her third natal day.
