Thursday, June 14,1962 THE McHEHHY PUUNDEALEB Fag* Nineteen McCullom Lake SPECIAL OCCASIONS BRING INFLUX OF VISITORS SUNDAY * Elma Nelson Two very important occasions in the lives of young people were celebrated in many homes on Sunday. First, was the many graduation cere- ' monies which took place last week and the parties were held oil Sunday. A really big one was held in honor of Danita Tomasello as she finished her elementary training and is m. about to embark on four years ' crOf nigh school. Relatives and friends gathered from far and near. Highlight of the day for the small fry was the mec- ' anized train ride they/enjoyed in the afternoon. Four young people frqm the village made their confirmation at Nativity Lutheran church, Wonder Lake, on Sunday. They were Bernice Bgork, Lynxve ^ Schultz, Mark Hansen and J. R, Levesque. A combination party was given in Lysine's honor by mom 'n' pop, Theresa and Willard Schultz. (They were also celebrating daddy Will's homecoming from the hospital). The guest list at the Schultz establishment read as follows: Mr. and Mrs. Vern Simmons; Mrs. Sal Tamburino and daugh- # t€r, Pat; Mr. and Mrs. Billy Giblin and family; Mary Baker and Bill Becker. On the menu were roast turkey 'n' stuffing, baked beans, and all the other g o o d i es which complement these two main dishes. Lynne received many lovely gifts and is now eagerly awaiting entry into high school. Mark Hansen's combination party brought his maternal grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Christiansen, out from Chicago. He was feted at one of the nearby restaurants. We marked the special occasion for J. R. with Papa and Sally Olsen for a cookout dinner with Jake presiding over the charcoal brazier! Fly Old Glory today!! If you haven't displayed your ™ flag yet, there is still time to let it wave (if it isn't raining, by the tjme you read this!) Today is Flag Day, June 14, the anniversary of the adoption by Congress of the American flag in 1777. festival Is Mrs. Myra Murray with Ed Hammer-stein as her second in command. More details next week. Humble Apologies I certainly wasn't co-ordinated last week when I reported that Ed Caron was home after being discharged from the army! After serving four years in the U. S. Air Force, I should have had my facts etilaiglit}. chalked up a mighty fine record as a dental technician in the Air Force and a good deal of his service was in Germany. He has gained some weight and on his tall frame, it looks good! Two Months On West Coast Harriet McNamara entrained from these parts about the twenty-third of March -- destination Chula Vista, Calif., which is located about 10 miles from the Mexican border. She boarded with her daughter aiid son-in-law, and became re-acquainted with her three grand children. During her two month sojourn on the west coast, the Ploettners and Mrs. McNamara motored to Encinada and Tajuana, Mexico, where they errjoyed the native food and purchased many lovely mementos of that country. Mrs. McNamara visited Knott's Berry Farm near Los Angeles which is very fiamous. One of the outstanding thrills of her trips was attending the out-door theater near Hemet, Calif. The plays are located out of doors and the seats for the audience are also in the surrounding hills. She viewed the play "Ramona" which is the love story of an Indian maid and a white man and there were 300 in the cast! Unfortunately, Harriet contracted the flu and was unable to visit Disneyland. She returned to her home on June 2. For the balance of the summer, she will have the pleasure of Mrs. Ann Ploettner's company. This is her son-in-law's mother Mrs. Ploettner intends to visit friends who live in the Chicago area, and the two women will no^ doubt take in all the local color! Gals Meet Tonight Tonight is the second to last meeting ol the Ladies of the Lake before they adjourn for the summer. There are plenty of business details to discuss and the rummage sale chairman, Louise Hdmmenstein, will make her report. Last week we reported Ihis year's sale as the best one ever held. After the business meeting, refreshments will be served. All women of the community are cordially invited. ^ Fun Festival In High Gear Plans are going ciheaci in fine fashion in order to give you a day of entertainment and enjoyment on July 21 when the Cullom-Knoll association wiil hold their fun festival.

He told this reporter on Monday that he expected to be back in his own home on W. Parkview on Saturday. He required two operations °to correct his difficulty but is feeling just wonderful now. The many thoughtful communications he received cheered him immensely.

Reunion Lois Anderson recently attended a fifteen year reunion party at her alma mater, Providence high school in Chicago. It was held on a Sunday afternoon from two to five o'clock. There were approximately fifty gals in attendance and Lcis says there was a real gab fest going on. Cake and coffee were served and a group picture was taken. The charge made for the party was used to present as a gift to the new school being built in River Forest. Oh, yet, Lois said there was even a bulletin board with letters and pictures from those unable to attend. Sounds like fun, but gee, Lois, it can't be fifteen years since we graduated! SEHOA, Inc. The bi-monthly meeting of our association was held as usual at 8 p.m. in the Johnsburg public school on the usual first Thursday of the month, with the usual small group in att e n d a n c e . I t ' s u n b e l i e v a b l e that out of the hundred plus homes in our community such a small group take an active interest in the association. The financial statement for the fiscal year was presented as well as the proposed budget for the future fiscal year. A letter from the Illinois Commerce Commission regarding the wa ter situation was read. And some very informative news regarding our beach and the roads was announced. Another item on the beach was brought to light by some of the residents attending and that was that some person or persons with an apparent nasty personality had been low enough to break bottles on the beach. Not in the grass, mind you. but right up on the sandy beach and on into the water. So, may Games 'N' Gimmicks Tile youngsters played games -- eight in all and received many fancy gimmicks at Kevin McKim's birthday party on June 4 when he turned 9.
