Thursday, August 12, 1965 THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Section Two -- Page Five WONDER LAKE NEWS MARY LOU IIARTOG 653-7176 PLAN PROGRESS FOR GIRL SCOUT GARDEN WALK Plans for the Home and Garden Walk to be held August 27 and 28 are ^oine; full steam ahead. The Kachina Girl Scouts are busy making big decisions like "Will I be a sign painter, waitress, storekeeper, or what ??" in Ihe coming affair. Decisions! Decisions! The girls hope to make enough on this project to be able to discontinue all other fund raising drives during the year. They also hope that all Wonder Lakers will hejp with word-of-mouth advertising .for their new project. This week we would like to give you a preview of two of the homes to be shown: In Wooded Shores the home of Hedda and Robert Bird, will show a table set for an Italian dinner with the traditional fruit and wine. From the Japanese garden in the front . yard to the Boceo Ball court • in the back the home reflects the owners' travels and old world heritage. Of special interest is a camel saddle. The dining room is the most " imposing wiih 24 panels in . the wainscoating, each contain- - ing one page of a catalogue from the Museum of Antiqui- - ties in the Vatican. Covering " one wall are 28 color prints of - Giotto's frescoes from the Superior Church of Assisi, depicting the Life of St. Francis. In the kitchen are to be found the works of a less known arlisl. The mosaics ex- • ecuted by the lady of Ihe house tile one wall. On the patio in • the back yard the Seouls will ' serve a cool drink and lend color to the scene wiih their bazaar booth. You might even fry your hand at a game of • Bocco Ball which is the Italian version of bowling on the • green. ! The original owner architect, • Hugo Piper, built the house in 1928 before the Lake was here. He used the field stone found at the building site. By contrast the home of Harold and Lorraine Young, ' also in Wooded Shores, is contemporary and one storied. A second house on the roof is the ^residence of the Youngs' racing pigeons. When the birds arrive •[ home after a race of approx- . imately 600 miles someone must be on hand at all times 'to clock the pigeon when he -arrives. (Maybe someone could come up with a pigeon time 'clock so they could just punch •in when, they arrive????) All . of the Youngs participate in the bobby. In the downstairs house the -family room with its special '•lighting shows off the advantage of several dozen trophies '-which overflow into the living ' room and cover the fireplace wall, bearing witness to the "championship quality of the "racing stock of birds. , The table will be set for a 'picnic buffet on the screened patio- facing the lake. Continul'ing outside, a stairway leads '• to the dove-cote on the roof where the girls will be on hand "to tell the story of the pig- >ons/ A sketch map will show the •localion of the homes and the 'boat dock from which pontoon . boals will offer a sightseeing cruise around the lake. You .can start your tour from any -home in the grouping. Next ^week we will tell you about the other two homes in Wonder Center. The more I write aboul this .affair the more enthused I \get. I hope you are affected , the same wav when vou read it. Canadian Relatives Visit Lake The Doekery, Lamont, and Kellner families were happy to have their Canadian relatives visit them for 3 days last week. Cousins, Mary and Woody Potter and George and Audrey McCall and the McCalls son, John, and girl friend Margie drove down from Windsor, Ontario, on Monday and stayed until Thursday. They all had a wonderful visit and the local relatives hated to see them leave. However, knowing this family, it won't be long before one or the other is winging their way toward Canada again or vice versa. Belated anniversary greetings to Cathy and Tom Docket who celebrated their anniversary on July 28th. Former Resident Injured in Fall Confusion reigned supreme at Ihe Russell residence on W. Sunset Drive last week. Marguerite Cottrell, former Wonder Laker, ;vnd Kay Lefebvre dropped in for a friendly visit. Shortly after their arrival the family noticed their dog, Clinker, was suddenly taken quite ill. In the confusion which followed the call to the vet and part of the group taking off with the dog, things happened in every direction. Marguerite went out the front door to moved her car so the other car could get out of the driveway. She turned to the right instead of the left where the steps are and fell off the porch breaking her wrist. So one group headed for the east side of the Lake and the doctor's office while the other group headed for Woodstock and the Vets. All inside of half an hour. Marguerite ended up in the Woodstock hospital for a few days. When father Jack returned from the store needless to say he was somewhat confused. It had all been so peaceful when he left. Anniversary Greetings To Viola and Ray Rochowicz who celebrate their twentieth anniversary next Wednesday. August 18. Brother of Local Resident Dies In California We extend our sympathies to "Jake" Jacobson whose brother was killed in an accidental fall from a scaffold in Salinas, Calif., recently. - Kiwanis Club Meeting President Jim Robison had to leave early to attend another meeting so Bob Howe presided. Bob reminded the delegates to the district convention being held in Chicago in September, to get in their reservations. Bob Myers has an interclub with Sycamore on tap. The program was given by two delegates, Art Lau and Guy White. Big topic at the convention was "Drop Outs" and what Kiwanis is doing and should do, citing a pressing need to expand Kiwanis Keys Clubs in the high schools. Another big topic was "Conserving Our Natural Resources. Both Land and Water." Over 20,000 projects were put on by Kiwanis Clubs last year on "Conservation." Other topics touched were "Automation, a Boom or Manpower Unrest?" Kiwanis is quite alarmed over the breakdown of moral standards and increase in crime. Kiwanis' answer is more active supporl of churches. Next week Kd Richardson will be our guest speaker.
