Note of Sadness Our heartfelt sympathies to Joe King and his family upon the recent death of his wife and their mother, Helen King. Death came unexpectedly to Mrs. King last Monday morning, Nov. 25. Words cannot express how much all of us will miss "Lena" as she was always the "Johnny on the spot" woman when the need arose. How many of us will leave such a beautiful memory behind when we leave this world? Sparkling Mews You can bet there was no one more surprised than Kathy Michels on Friday evening, Nov. 22. It was a most happy surprise too! She was gifted with a most beautiful diamond engagement ring from her steady beau, William Beutel. I doubt very much if her feet will touch ground for quite a spell. (And really who can blame her!) Kathy's folks, Mr. and Mrs. Loo (Hack) Michels are very happy about the whole thing. Bill is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Milton Beutel of Island Lake. Happiness is in store for this young couplc ns they have received so many good wishes from all their relatives and friends. No date as yet has been set for the wedding.

SCOUTS ELIGIBLE TO EARN ATOMIC ENERGY BADGES The Blackhawk Area Council, Boy Scouts of America, with headquarters at Rockford has announced that all second and first class Boy Scouts and Explorers are now eligible to earn the Atomic Energy merit badge--the 105th in the series. Dr. Glenn T.- Seaborg, chairman of the Atomic Energy commission, himself a former Life Scout with twenty-five merit badges, took part in a Ceremony in New York on Nov. 20 when he honored thirty-four Boy Scouts and Explorers of four states who were the first to qualify for the new merit badge. Merit badges are provided in the Boy Scout organization to encourage hoys to increase their skill in things they like to do. They give boys a chance to try out new activities that may result in new interests. Currently there are 105 subjects ranging from agriculture to zoology, falling into fifteen groupings. These cover animal husbandry, aquatics, arts, building, campcraft, citizenship, communication, conservation, crafts and collections, nature, outdoor snorts, personal development, plant cultivation, public service and transportation. Last year 1,722,928 merit badges were earned by America's Boy Scouts. worn I by Moggie Lovewell I The Honoays Are Here!... with their parties and fun and excitement. BUT WHAT TO WEAR? Especially to a business party given by your husband's company! 'Course you can always check with other wives to see what they're wearing. But if on your own, just try to wear * simple, understated dress. If brandnew, try dress on the day before. Maybe you'd like to correct some small thing -- loose snap, thread showing, etc. And always try on all your accessories-- shoes, handbag, jewerly --to see the total effect and eliminate anything that seems "fussy." EXTRA TIP: Now is not the time to try any tricky or totally strange hairdo or makeup. SETTING UP CARD TABLES for extra company? Avoid spills and mess because tables pull apart. Just use ordinary rubber banc's to hold adjoining legs together. Get your ARTIFICIAL FLOWERS LOO KINK NEW again Wash with mild soap and warm water, using small brush for hard-to-get places. After rinsing, place in pillowcase and hang on line to dry. Shopping for all those gifts can become quite a chore IF YOUR FEET ARE TIRED. But an ounce of effort can keep your feet happy and your spirits gay! Start out by pre-planning your shopping Jist to the layouts of the stores, to avoid doubling back and forth. Walking shoes give the best comfort. Flats may add to leg and foot strain, especially if you're used to hi heels. It's hard on feet and legs to go abruptly from spikes to nonsupport scuff slippers, but alternate heel heights as often as you can. For soothing, while-you're-shopping comfort, sprinkle talc generously between toes and inside shoes. Make sure stockings fit wellnot too snug, no irritating wrinkles. Wait! Don't throw out those smelly OLD SPONGES AND PLASTIC PLACE MATS. Just toes them in the washer with some other heavy things*... they'll come out clean and fresh. J HOLIDAY SNACK HINTS: Store leftover potato chips, pretzels, crackers in freezer up to a month -- candy up to 6 months. In air-tight pack, unsalted nut meats will keep a year. Please keep those news items coming. See you all here next week.
