At the May meeting 11th District Director Lucille Sandberg and her secretary Beth Stevenson of Joliet were entertained. Poppy Chairman Lois Haak reported 800 poppies were sold on poppy day in Wonder Lake. Participation in the Memorial Day parade, a 3-day bake and resale which was highly successful, the guys and gals card party, all helped to boost the girls morale.

Garden Club News Dorothy McEachren, president of the Garden Club, ably assisted by Mrs. Genevieve Wielock, entered an arrangement in the Grayslake Garden Club Show on June 21 and received an honorable mention ribbon. The arrangement was of auratum lilies with variegated hosta leaves arranged in a madonna of Leerdam crystal. Two members of the club have been on the sick list recently. Elsie Hoppe has been in Sherman hospital in Elgin having eye surgery and Mrs. Marian Carder has been ill at home with a slight heart attack. We hope this finds both of them well on the road to recovery. The ladies are making plans to have a new civic project to replace the triangle project which has been discontinued. Details will be printed later when plans are more complete. Profiles Our profile this week is about a young lady who I think is spending a real vacation - the kind most of us only dream about but never have. Peggy Wrede, daughter of the Gail Wredes of Wooded Shores, is spending the summer in Hawaii. We wrote earlier in the year about how the Wredes' older daughter, Jan, was spending the past year attending the University of Hawaii and of Juvenna Chang whose home is in Hawaii and who spent all her vacation time from Ripon College at the Wredes. A scrt of "Fair Exchange." On June 9 the Wredes drove Peggy, their youngest daughter who is a student at Woodstock High School, to Ripon, Wis., where she joined Juvenna and another classmate and the three of them drove to Cascade, Montana - the home of the third classmate. From Cascade Juvenna and Peggy took a bus to Seattle, Wash., arriving there June 14 in the morning and in the evening of the same day they boarded a plane for Hawaii. This was all a very well kept secret from Jan who had no idea her sister was coming. At the airport Jan and Juvenna's parents and family were all watching for Juvenna and who should Jan run into but her sister. Juvenna's parents said it had been so hard to keep the secret but it was certainly well worth it to- see the expression on Jan's face and to hear her exclamations. The girls will all spend the summer in Hawaii and return the end of August in time foi school. Jan and Juvenna are both attending summer school at the University and Jan is also taking up scuba diving. Both will return to Ripon college in September for their senior year. Peggy will return to her junior year at Woodstock high school. Meantime 8 OPENS. CLOGGED SEWERS febfiaof digging t, ttOOT DESTROYED dissolve* Roofs, Paper Great*, Sludge easily.
