The Lucky Ladies Club sponsored the annual children's Christmas party for one hundred and thirty children from infancy thru eighth grade along with their parents, who enjoyed a most entertaining afternoon. To get everyone in the * Christmas mood, carols were played by Irene May on the piano. Mary Farley, Mary Anderson, Candy Kobus and Cathy Palmer wrote and directed a play called "The Magnificent Gift". This play was the most! The girls were very well organized and efficieno from painting of scenes to rehearsal schedules and managing eighteen children. The cast was as follows: Brian Kobus as Papa; Kathy Farley as Mama; Pam DeFrancisco as Maria; Larry Palmer as Juan; Ernie Olson as Peter;, Marty Palmer as Pedro; Don Dettlow as Davy; Rose Marie May as Mary; Robin Radtke as Julie; Helen Farley as Anna; Patty Anderson as the first Nobelman; Also Kathy Gerstein as the second nobelman; Steven Segerstrom as the third nobelman; Kasey Anderson as the fourth nobelman; Karen Hanahan and Kim Olsen were angels; Dave Kuechel as a monk nnd Terry Radtke was the narrator.

Fran Olsen called out the family names and as they came up, Santa gave each child a toy picked especially for their age. We know how busy Santa is this time of year so needless to say how much his visit was appreciated. Then came the goodies. The Lucky Ladies served chocolate milk, ice cream, cookies and coffee to all. More carols were played by Irene May and some of the youngsters led the sing along over the microphone. One young boy found the music so southing he fell asleep on Dad's lap. Much of the credit goes to the hard working committee. They were Carol Kennebeck, Marlene Berg, Pat Williams, Dolores Hanahan and Ginger Roomfield and of course, the othtr club members willingly pitched in to help. As the children left they were given a balloon and candy cane. Incidently, Loretta Mikkelsen and her vacuum are credited with blowing up 150 ballloons at home. They were transported to the party in their station wagon. It was a grand afternoon! Christening Dec. 11, in St. Patrick's church in McHenry at 1:45 p.m., Jerri Dowe, new daughter of Gerald and Janet Dowe, was baptized having as her godparents, Karen Hay and Cene Dowe. Following the ceremony some twenty-one guests gathered at the Dowe residence for a buffet supper. . Special Request The county road department has asked all residents to please remove parked cars from the roads now before it snows. Not only is it difficult to dodge parked cars when plowing but they are not responsible for any damage done to them. If we expect our highway department to be efficient in plowing our roads - let us help them make the job easier. Birthday Jubilations Carol Kennebeck spent a "very enjoyable day on her?? birthday. She started by shopping most of the afternoon and then she and her family ate a very special meal with her parents in the village. The Eichhorn home was the seen# of much activity Dec. ~13, with a double celebration. Theresa shared her birthday with Grandma Eichhorn. Joanne prepared a dinner for the occasion with Grandpa also there to help celebrate. Later on in the week Theresa will be celebrating again with her other grandparents. Mike Tillich, Jr., Enjoyed the company of friends on his birthday Dec. 12th. Mr. and Mrs. Adams joined the Tilliches in the evening for cake and conversation. Mr. and Mrs. Jim Maloney of Crystal Lake visited Steve and Lorraine Major oh Saturday evening. The occasion was Steve's birthday. What fun they had playing cards to the wee hours of the morning. On Sunday Steve's sister and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Andreasen of Woodale, were there along with Stevie and Margaret Major, Jr.. and UNUSUA! FQilMeiS... We can screen them/ thpir four children. They had a nut cracking time. Steve's sister from Florid^ sent a 201b. bag of walnuts. Eric Kanter had his special day on Dec. 7, v^hen he became two years old. A dinner was prepared in his honor with the ice cream* and cake to follow. Early in the day he was given a present atfhfch he played with the entire day being very good. A birthday that was celebrated early was not forgotten when the special day actually came. Kim Bute had celebrated her birthday early this year at the home of her brother, Ken, in Palatine. There w e r e f o u r t e e n g u e . < t s w h o gathered to help make this birthday special. Now, even though. Kim had already celebrated, when Dec. 12, came along, Mother prepared her favorite meal and made a delicious cake. So now you might say Kim enjoyed two birthdays this year. Double Treat Tony and Mildred Senkerik celebrated their twenty-third wedding anniversary on Dec. 4 at an elegant restaurant near Waukegan. Kathy and David also went. David's birthday was only two days away so it was a double celebraton. Anniversary Dinner The Davises, Red and Mary, went to a local restaurant for a most delicious meal in honor of their nineteenth wedding anniversary. Sympathy We would like to extend our deepest sympathy to Joe and Kasyle Cina and their two children. Joe Cina, Sr., father of Joe, suddenly passed away Sunday, Dec. 11. There was visitation at the Miller funeral home in Dundee and on Wednesday Mr. Cina was laid to rest from St. Catherine's C a t h o 1 ic church, also in Dundee. There are so few words that can soften the blow of something so sudden but God works in strange ways. Christmas Party Cub Scout Pack 452 gathered at the Johnsburg school on Tuesday evening for the annual family Christmas party. Those attending from here were the Boomfields, the Olsens, the Kanters, the Williamses, the Segerstroms and the Hanahans. The new Cub Scouts were inducted at this time and made official Bob Cats. Among them were Steven Boomfield and Steven Segerstrom. They took the oath along with their parents. The pack leader placed the scarf on each boy. Then they were presented with a pin which each p^ent pinned on them up side down. When they have done a good deed they may wear them right side up. While the group sang songs, the boys took turns placing the ornament they made on the tree. Then Santa made his appearance giving every child a bag of candy. Afterwards pop and cplfee and a assortment of cookies were served. Wedding Dinner The DeFranciscos went to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Sterba in Des Plaines for dinner on Saturday evening. Fifteen friends were there to toast the Sterbas' daughter and her new husband who were married a few months ago.

Road Assessment Mri Segerstrom has received word from Calvin Skinner, our county treasurer. Even though Mr. Skinner has only been in office a few short weeks he has completely settled the matter of the high rate of interest we were paying. Our interest will be 6 per cent of the unpaid balance each year. The bills that will be coming out in the near future will be corrected and the overpayment of interest from last year will be deducted from this years interest. I am sure this will be good news to most of you. Anniversary Greetings "Crystals" to Jim and Dorothy Stoffel who share fifteen years on Dec. 26. May the happiness of the past follow you in the future. We hope to have our phones ringing off the hook with your holiday news. At the closing of the last Home and School meeting, the parting thought was "Let us put Christ back into Christum as "Christmas is so commercialized these days ,it is difficult for us and our children to realize the true meaning. Here is wishing all of you a very merry and holy Christmas.
