Z We ~are very fortunate to •have the lovely-park and certainly everyone agrees the ^services are inspiring and a .fitting tribute to all who served, •both living and dead. * Deepest Sympathy To * Mrs. Katherine Lennert of ^Chicago, whose husband, Anton, •idied in Ravenswood hospital •Sunday night. He had been ill 4or', many years.. Other details appear elsewhere in the Plaindealer. During the 12 years the Lennerts lived in the village, they both served their community in many capacities. Mr. Lennert was custodian of the beach-\ house until they moved back to the city. Katie was active in both improvement organizations and was an untiring worker for the Ladies of the Lake. We extend our deepest sympathy to Katie, and to Mr. Lennert's other survivors, who are all well known in the village. Huge Success For Rummage Sale Although this reporter could not attend, we understand this year's Ladies of the Lake rummage sale was by far the best ever held. The quality of merchandise turned in was far superior to that of last year, which alwayS^helps! Helen Lorch did a wonderful job in organizing her "troops" d the tasteful manner in hich the clothing was displayed made selection much easier. Brackets were permanently secured to the side walls and pipe was put in plade which made excellent racks. Fred Mattesius donated the materials, and EarP Nelson, Don Parenti, Ed Caron, and Bill Brennan did the work. The women who worked so hard for the success of the endeavor were Elma Nelson, Marie McKim, Ethel Schmidt, Carrie Kurth, Gertrude Murphy, Edith Brendle, Emma Pyritz, Lois Parenti, and of course, chairman Helen Lorch. The gals also baked and served "tasty pastry and hot coffee to the partons. A nice tidy sum of $115.88 was cleared. Sincere thanks and appreciation to the workers, the people who donated items for sale, and the many patrons who benefited both themselves and the club! / Top Student For The Second Time! Marge and Ole Olsen were very proud of their son Tom when he graduated from Mc- Henry high school, class of '59 as valedictorian, but their pride knows no bounds this year as he was rated the top civil engineering graduate at Bradley College, Peoria, after completing a five year course in that field. The . OlsenS were informed of this singular honor late last week. Tom makes his commencement at ceremonies beginning at 9:30 a.m., Sunday, May 31. On the same day, younger son, Ted, will graduate with honors from Marion Central high school and they certainly have every reason to be proud of their fine scholars! Attend State Republican Convention Jake and I left early Friday morning to attend the State Republican Convention in Springfield and it certainly Was a thrill? I must confess it was the first time for me and was thoroughly enjoyed. The combined efforts of our four "Indians" made it possible. We stayed at the Leland Hotel where many sessions and programs were held. State treasurer Bill Scott and state superintendent Ray Page sponsored a dinner Friday night which was served to an overflow crowd. About 3,000 in attendance! The convention itself was held in the Armory and that place became quite warm since it is not air conditioned. We heard impressive speeches by the candidates whose names will appear on the November ballot and ended with an address by Chuck Percy, candidate for Governor. As County Chairman, Jake entertained the McHenry County delegation and on our trip down, we were accompanied by State Central Committeewoman for the 12th District, Mrs. Tom (Boots) Davis. A great experience.

Established By Law So many questions have been raised by our residents concerning who is eligible to vote in the sewer referendum, set for June 13. According to law, you MUST be a registered voter to cast a ballot. This is a State law and was not established by the village board. The brochures explaining the project were mailed last week. If you are registered and did not receive one, please call this reporter at 385-3191. ^ Members of the village board and other volunteers will be calling at each home to answer questions regarding the .referendum. Special Birthdays Feted Mrs. Theresa Cunningham who turned 70 on May 22 and Jake Levesque who was 50 on May 23 "hosted" a party at McDonald's Sunday afternoon for the occasion. We had just returned from Springfield at noon and it made things rather hectic for a bit! So many generous gals brought salads and other goodies, and baked ham was the entree. To everyone's glee, excellent music was offered by a swinging group and fun for everyone. Natal "Daze" 'N' Mat.
