New president of the organization, Mrs. Earl Nelson, named this i eporter as chairman of the event with Lois Parenti as assistant. There will be plenty of games;, for those who are daring in spirit. You have the promise from the committee that this will be the finest party you have attended. Please circle this date in Red! The Kid Gloves Are Off!! Soft handling of juvenile offenders is over!! According to Chief Jack Sohlofner, the punishment wid suit the crime. In the recent wave of housebreaking, three young boys were apprehended and turned over to county court. In the case of one .13 year old lad, he was taken from his parents' custody and turned over to the Illinois Youth Commission. Another lad has been confined to his home until Jan. 15. He may only attend school or be accompanied by his parents. There was a continuance in the case of the third boy and when this verdict has been handed down, you will have the results. Financing' of Sewer Project Will be Investigated The president and trustees have been assured by Baxter and Woodman that work is going ahead on the detailed cost of the sanitary disposal plant and a report will prooably be ready for the second meeting in November. That would be Nov. 26. The next step is to investigate the possible methods of financing this project. All of these avenues must be pursued before the matter can be brought before the voters of the community. Have no fears --every step of this most important project will be fully outlined to every resident in the village! Some time in the near future, when more information is available, the board will request the presence of every interested inhabitant. It may be feasible for us to set up a sanitary sewer district which would encompass all of the village plus any family just outside the limits who would wish to be included. More on this at a later date. Chief Schlofner petitioned the board to name two women to serve as police matrons. In the event that a female must be transported for incarceration, it is necessary to have a woman present. Mrs. Earl Murray and Mrs. Jack Schlofner were designated by the board as police matrons. They will serve without remuneration and will be members of the police reserve. Village president J. R. Levesque commended Chief Schlofner for the fine manner in which they handled the deli- • cate matter of the three young boys who performed malicious acts. He noted that they all had devotion to duty above and beyond the normal requirements and he asked that village clerk Emma Pyritz make his commendation a matter of public record. The next meeting will be held Monday, Oct. 22, at 8 p.m. in the beachhouse. The public is invited. Costume Party for Ladles? Meeting Oct. 25 You can be "Billy the Kid", "Lady Godiva", Dennis the Menace, or anyone else you choose, but you MUST represent some one or some character. Such is the edict handed down by Petey Schmidt, "chargez d'affaires" of the Ladies of the Lake Halloween party on Thursday, Oct. 25. There will be three prizes offered for those most representative of the personality selected. It sounds like a fun evening and with Petey at the helm, the maximum in surprises will be offered, you can count on that. This gal has a talent for organizing parties! Lois Parenti was named "sunshine chairman" by Mrs. Nelson. She also named an auditing committee to check the books and they are Mickey Murray, Grace Kinsey and Petey Schmidt. The matter of shelters for school children has not been abandoned and Mickey Murray was designated to pursue the feasibility of erecting one shelter at Gate 4. In the event that one is installed at this location, damage or violation of any part of this property will be dealt with--to the fullest extent of the law! Edith Brendle and Ethel Schmidt provided the excellent cakes for the refreshment segment of the evening. Mrs. Dave (Karen) Scarbrough and Mrs. Bill (Helen) Scheid were introduced "to the group as interested spectators and we're hoping to persuade them to become members. Summer Resident Dies in Chicago Dr. Vito Pisani, 80, a resident of the community since the early 30's died in a Chicago hospital Oct. 5. He had been ill since last spring but his condition didn't become serious until two weeks before his death. He is survived by his widow, Clara; two step-sons, Dr. Robert and Warren H. Murstig of California and one brother. He also leaves three step-grandchildren. Services were held from the Hursen Chapel with interment in Mount Olive cemetery.. First Granddaughter (or H. Houcks With two grandsons to boast about the Henry Houcks were hoping hard for a granddaughter. Very obediently, their son, Hugh, and his lovely wife, Judith, complied and presented them with Rachel Ina Houck, born in St. Joseph's hospital, Elgin on Wednesday, Qct. 10. Hie little miss duplicated her mother's birth weight of 7 lbs., 14 ozs. and measured 20. inches from her pretty little head to her tiny toes. Hugh has been doing substitute teaching work at Cary- Grove high school and attending several sessions a week at Northern HI. U. at DeKalb. His wife is a teacher, also. The couple have moved into an elegant little house in Algonquin directly on the scenic Fox River. We are elated to print this bit of good news and wish the very best to all concerned. Mrs. Virginia Aaltd. Art and Ben Gates displayed their boutonnieres proudly also. The Aaltd girls, Carol and Mary Ellen, passed the guest register. The out-of-town visitors included Mr. and Mrs. Joe White of Chicago and McCullum Lake; Joe Coleman, Algonquin; Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Kays, Marengo; Mr. and Mrs. Ray Demi and Mr. and Mrs. George Klein of Aurora; Mr. and Mrs. Ford Marsh of Island Lake; Mr. and Mrs. Bill Gates, Pell Lake; and Art's brother* Harris, who trained in from Minneapolis for the occasion. On hand also were Mr. and Mrs. John Neuharth who recently celebrated this happy occasion. In addition, there were scores of local couples who paid their respects and offered best wishes. Mention must go to Ole Olsen who declared himself official "girl greeter" arid you know what that entails! The Stuhlfeiers' joy knew no bounds when they received congratulatory messages from relatives in St. Paul, Minneapolis, and Portland, Oregon. They couldn't attend in person but were with them in spirit. For the festivities, Violet and Ginny s e r v e d p i e c e s from three handsome cakes, with appropriate orname n t a t i o n, candy, nuts and two kinds of punch-- one with, the other without! tiations to sell their summer home in Wonder Lake. They were all pleased to see Ole Olsen and Jake and myself, too. Lorraine tried to reach old friends, Theresa and Willard Schultz, but they were away.

A Hearty Welcome Back To Carrie and Frank Kurth who have taken up residence in the Leon Hanna home on West Parkview until their new home on the same street is completed. The Kurth? number among the early pioneers of the community and resided on Lake Shore Drive since the early thirties. Their location is ideal, across the street from their daughter and husband, John and Lorraine Boyle. And very handy to their two handsome grandsons. Honored Couple Beam as They Greet Guests About seventy to eighty people streamed through the portals of the Stuhlfeier domain on Sunday to pay homage to Maude and Art as they observed their golden wedding anniversary. Mrs. S. was ap-« propriately pinned with a lovely corsage as was daughter, Violet, and assistant hostess, Beachhouse Lighting Vastly Improved Hurrah to Earl Murray for furnishing and installing two large fluorescent fixtures in the beachhouse. He received willing assistance from Don Parenti on Sunday. This will be a boon to the judges and clerks of elections who had a miserable time in April trying to tally the ballots with the other lights. This was a tremendous service to the community and Earl desgfves^ his name in capital letters! "Just a Little Street "Where old friends meet" goes the opening line of a popular song of ancient vintage but it best describes what took place last Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Johnson ventured into McDonald's and were amazed to greet two other couples whom they hadn't seen in years. All were good friends in the city. Neither had any idea of the others' attendance. The other couples were Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Sedler and Mr. and Mrs. LeRoy (Irma and Dutch) Harding who had just completed nego- Village Wanderers After the delightful "hecktivity" of her parents' soiree, Vi Gates boarded a train Tuesday morning --dest i n a t i o n , Denver, Colo. In addition to absorbing the local splendor she planned to visit with Mr. and Mrs. Perry Shenneman who live on the outskirts and high in the hills! More on that when she returns. The Shennemans resided in McHenry until their move west Ole Olsen, Bill Walter and Fred Yost were hoping nothing would interfere with their plans to leave yesterday for a fishing trip in upper Minnesota and lower Canada. The two men helped move Bill and his family from their home on W. Orchard Drive to their brand new dwelling on Spring Road. Not even the birthday of Ole's daughter, Margie, toiday, was going to deter them. We should have their "fish stories" to print when they come home. ;* m Presented at the Font Wee Terri Lynn, the 2 month old daughter of Joanne and Lee Mai, was presented for baptism at the font of Nativity Lutheran church, Wonder Lake, during the 11 a.m. service on Sunday.
