LAKELAND PARK NEWS Barbara Mennr • 885-4856 Cfcrole Huniiwi - 385-1896 VANDALS SPOIL HOLIDAY SPIRIT AND DECORATIONS r It seems to many of our residents that someone is running around loose with -a strange sense ut humor. Esp e c i a l l y c o n s i d e r i n g t h a i Christmas time is supposed in l>e a lime of joy and giving unto others. Maybe that's the key, the giving unto others a very bad time of it. For a while during the couplo ol days after Christmas the phone just about rang off the wall with very disheartened people complaining that part or. in some cases, all of their outride decorations had been removed. In one instance I hey were completely torn down and the strings were thrown in the road to let the i-iirs complete the job. Some of this happened aftei- 10 or II at night so it sort of rules out little kids who don't know ;iny better. §o, anyhow, friends, look at all the pretty houses now because it ' s doubtful thai many people will take the same chance next yi?ar of having all their hard work, to say nothing of the expense of decorating, down the drain just to provide entertainment for some sick minded group of brats. Help' Wanted Klvira Kujak, chairman of iliis year's cerebral palsy drive has put out a call for i«H?nage helpers to call door to door on Sunday, Jan. 15, Trom 2 p.m. 1o 6 p-.m. The more volunteers available the less lime each one need canvass. She would appreciate any interested |»eople calling her after !'» p.m. Her number is 385-229:!. Please give just ;i little of your time to help others. . Woman's < 'lub TTIO January meeting of the Woman's Club will be held this evening, Thursday, Jan. 5, at 8:30 p.m. at the community house.
