This call for help is out especially for mothers of those to be confirmed on April 10 and mothers of -the First Communicants. But no able bodied woman's help will be refused. As I've said before - "many hands make light work." If for some reson you are unable JLO come, please try to send some food to the community club or money to defray costs of food. The ladies who clean church will be served breakfast and lunch as the cleaning task will start right after the 8 o'clock Mass on Tuesday, April 6. Please try to do your bit. Communion Sunday Reminder Just a small reminder to all members of St. John's court 96, adult and Juvenile. The 8 o'clock Mass next Sunday will be read for the living members of the court. All the men are asked to participate at this time and receive communion in a body. Breakfast will be served in the community club hall right after Mass. Girl Scout News At their meeting of March 8, troop 88 started out with a Court of Honor meeting and then went to their patrols. Dues were collected, followed by the flag ceremony. Treats were enjoyed by the girls as were the games they played. Cookie hostesses for the afternoon were Maria Tomasello and Joyce Heard. The meeting was concluded with Taps, squeezing of hands and "Girls Scouts Together". One of their more recent meetings was started with the Scouts going directly to their patrols for the collection of dues. Later the flag ceremony, treats and the learning of a new song was on the agenda. A play and cookie order slips collection also took place during this particular meeting. Taps, hand squeezing and "I Know a Place" brought the afternoon to a close. Hospital Patient The infant daughter of Estelle and Willie Klapperich is scheduled to undergo heart surgery in a Chicago hospital early this week. This little lady has had her share of troubles in the short time she has been on this earth. Please remember Beth in your daily prayers as we all hope and pray for her recovery. ^Memorable Trip Recently returned Mexican travelers are Tony and Lois Weber of Pistakee Bay. The couple left Feb. 27 by jet from O'Hare and made Mexico City their headquarters. While in Mexico' they visited points of interest in San Jose Pueua, TaXco, Cuernavaca and Acapulco. On their traveling agenda was a trip to the "Floating Gardens". They boarded a boat, cruised the islands and had lunch afloat while taking in the beautiful scenery! They returned to Mexico City in time to Witness the exciting bull fights. The fifteen day trip was thoroughly enjoyed by the Webers. Grandma Lynn Peterson kept the "home fires burning" while looking after her three granddaughters, Lynn Marie, Debbie Lee and Cheryl Ann so their parents could get away for a "second honeymoon." Recent Residents We wish to welcome Ronnie and Laverne Adams and Debbie. The threesome moved into the Joel Adams home on Chapel Hill Road within the past two weeks. They formerly resided in Fox Lake. We wish them success and much happiness in their new surroundings. Vacation Fun Joe and Sue Frett and daughter, Nadine, are among our most recent travelers to Florida. All three have been enjoying the landscape and warm weather of this popular southern state. White Elephants Needed Desperately Not the big, live kind either. Just the old odds and ends that you may not need anymore but are still serviceable for someone else's need. These things are badly needed for the forthcoming P.T.A. Fun Fair at the Johnsburg public school on April 3. If you have anything to donate, Marge Barth will gladly pick it up or you canCdrop it off at her house on Spring Grove Road. Please check your things now and give Marge a buzz if you come across something you wish to part with. The Fun Fair date once again is April 3 in the school from 4 to 9 p.m. Funeral Services Here For Mr.. Henn A resident of Johnsburg for almost 25 years was claimed- by death last Friday. Aloysius Henn passed away at the Woodstock hospital where he had been confined for several weeks. Our sincere sympathies are extended to his widow, Madeline, and his three daughters, Kathleen and Maureen, both at home and Mrs. William (Patricia) Miller of McHenry." Thr^e grandchildren, two sisters and one brother also survive. Funeral services were conducted, from St. John's church Monday with burial in the church ceme: tery. Mr. Henn was 59 at the time of death and had resided at 1905 W. Sunnyside Beach Drive. "Sandy Has A Party" Twelve young friends of Sandy Thelen were in her home last Saturday afternoon to celebrate her seventh birthday. Although her actual birthdate isn't until the 23rd, Lois thought it would be best to have the party on Saturday. Games were enjoyed immensely by the group. The girls settled down long enough to consume sandwiches, cake, ice cream and all the other goodies which go into a successful birthday party. Sandy was the recipient of many lovely gifts. Good Health Celebration The Bill Barth family were so thankful the entire family m was in good health for ft change that they went out to celebrate; The family drove into Chicago last Saturday, had dinner out and then wfyen on to witness the Shriners circus. The whole evening was most thrilling to Jail, especially since they were all well. Rescue Squad Calls With the two calls answered by our Johnsburg rescue squad within this past week, the running count is now up to 2,451. At 10:15 a.m. on March 17, a three year old Pistakee Highlands youngster fell and suffered lacerations of the forehead. He was taken to the McHenry hospital in the family car. At 1:05 p.m. on March 20, another call involved a three year old. A Sunnyside Estates resident was believed to have suffered possible convulsions. He was taken by the rescue squad to the hospital for further treatment. A word of caution comes from our squad members this week about the disposing of the aerosol- type cans. Many, many products are "now dispensed in this type of can and can be most dangerous if not disposed of in the right way. Never throw them in an incenerator or puncture them. Another tip in regards to starting your cars during these cold days. Always pull your vehicle out of the enclosure while letting it run to warm. This will lessen your chances of being overcome by carbon monoxide. When contacting the rescue squad, please be certain it is fin emergency. Many parents call before they look over the situation carefully. Sometimes a child may hurt himself arid bleeding will start. It may be just a little thing you can take care of yourself and does not require the squad's attention.
