Around the Shores Helen and Kelly Simonsen attended a wedding at the Holy Name Cathedral in Chicago and then went to the reception at the Blackstone hotel Saturday afternoon. On the Sunday before Thanksgiving Helen entertained their son and his family for a pre-Thanksgiving dinner, having turkey and all the trimmings. The Wetzels entertained Mr. and Mrs. F. Wetzel of Edison Park and Mr. and Mrs. Ken Wetzel and their two children from Palatine for the holiday. Doris says the evening ended with a 'hot' poker game, the only complaint being they did not leave 20 percent for the house. The Olbinskis had Gerry's mom, Mrs. Frances Conway, for the holiday and weekend. Glad to see she feels better and is up and about.

Last Saturday the Denigans drove to La Grange to see one of their numerous grandsons make his first communion. Anne Gruner reports that she is learning how to drive and if you see her coming step aside as last Saturday on one of her trips around the Shores she zigged when she should have zagged and ended up in the ditch and had to be pulled out,--but nothing daunted she is going to continue until she gets her license. Reva Peters left by jet on Nov. 7 to attend a convention in Los Angeles. Lawrence Welk and his group put on a special performance and Reva sang two numbers and danced with quite a few of the boys.

The Peter's daughter, Karen, who is supervisor in one of the hospitals in Hollywood and Reva took a 2,200 mile motor trip seeing Solvang, Carmel by the Sea, Monterey, San Francisco and Las Vegas and the desert with snow, no sand visible. They were in San Francisco during the time they had the earthquake which was a little scary. Reva same home in time for Thanksgiving dinner with her husband and their daughter, Mrs. Ben Tibbs, and family and guests from Mt. Prospect. Their son-in-law, Specialist 5th Class Ben Tibbs, who has been in Korea for a year will return home the 21st of December in time to spend Christmas with the family, which will make it a happy holiday for all. The William Tennerts' daughter, Doris Hildebrand, and her husband and two boys drove in from Grove City, Pa., to spend the holiday and also celebrate Mrs. Tennert's birthday. After leaving the Shores they went to Skokie to visit friends and then back home. The Tennerts expect to return the visit before Christmas.

Car stickers are now available for William Tennert at FINE ARTS OROUP PRESENTS "AMAHL" AT OPERA HOUSE One of the most moving adaptations of the Christmas story is Gian-Carlo Menotti's one-act opera, "Amahl and the Night Visitors". On Sunday afternoon, Dec. 13, at 2 o'clock, in the Opera House, John Monkman, director of music at Kirkland high school and the Methodist church in Woodstock, will present his interpretation of "Amahl." The cast is composed of students of Monkman at Kirkland, many of whom are first prize winners in state high school voice competition. "Amahl and Night Visitors" portrays simply, yet beautifully, the magic of Christmas in music. It is the story of a crippled child and his widowed 3216 W. Beach drive or at the meeting. Well, as I sit here typing this it is blowing and snowing like mad so am going to see if I can get to town and turn this in to the paper. See you next week. mother who live in abject pov4 erty, and because of their many4 hardships have become comfl ,! pletely dependent upon, and de«i voted to each other in a mah4. ner which exemplifies the trutlfi and beauty of mother andL child. On this first Christmajf three kingly travellers stoppfetf at Amahl's crude hut to see If food and shelter. Amahl aruf his mother willingly give them lodging, and the kings tell of their wondrous journey, guided by a bright star in the East, in search of a special newborn child. During the night the magic of Christmas and the miracle of Jesus' birth manifests itself in the healing of Amahl. The opera premiered on NBC Dec. 24, 1951, and since then has become one of the annual hallmarks of the Christmas season. "Amahl and the Night Visitors" has meaning for all members of the family, and the music has won the highest of critical acclaim.
