HOLIDAY HILLS INEZ YOUNG 385-4672 SCHEDULE MANY ACTIVITIES WOR FUTUME DATES Move over snow and make room for spring! In less than a week, spring will be here. This year with all the snow, it seems I'm even more anxious than ever to see what will come up under those white heaps that have covered everything for months. After venturing only as far out as was absolutely necessary during the past months, in spring we once again take an active part in what goes on around us. Below you will find a list of coming events that you may want to mark down on your calendar: Tonight, March 16, Cub Pack 458* s Pine Wood Derby. Tomorrow, March 17, besides being the day for the wearing of the green, is the last day to call Carl Weiss on joining the Holiday Hills Blood Bank. ' , Saturday, April 1, Jr. College election at Amours residence in Island Lake. T H E R g World a? Of * Pharmacy Also on April 1 - Scout-ORama.

Included in the group were Alice Malzahn, Loretta Nelson, Kathy Matesi, Linda Beck, Mary Quarta, Libby Podpora, Marilyn Young and Carrie Lou Thomas. HOLIDAY HILLS VISITORS Holiday Hills had two visitors last week that were seen just briefly, and I'm told they have been around before. It seems there are two deer who come down to our slough south of Sunset Drive for a drink and then crossing Sunset gracefully dart behind the homes on the north side of Sunset and disappear as fast as they arrive.

HERPES SIMPLEX (COLD SORES) Almost all of us occasionally come up with cold sores on the mouth or lips. The disease causing these sores is known as Herpes Simplex, and is as old as man himself. This disease results from various circumstances. It often goes hand in hand with colds and influenza; in many instances they appear due to internal upsets. Sometimes they come with too much exposure to sunshine and cold wind. The virus causing cold sores is unique in that it will live among people susceptible to this disease, despite the fact that the persons blood carries antibodies that can destroy it. (More next week).

UNITED STATES BREWERS ASSOCIATION, INC. EXPANSION OF FS EXPLAINED AT ANNUAL MEET Stagnation faced McHenry FS in the longer-term, reduced earnings after a brief period of false optimism would have, confronted the board of directors, had it not decided to expand services to farmers throughout the county, Stanley Steagall asserted last week. Steagall, general manager of of the farmer-owned company, analyzed the rapid expansion to McHenry, Marengo and Chemung for 750 persons at the annual meeting of the farmerowned cooperative. "For the short-term, with assets depreciated as they were «xl with efficiency at the peak it was in 1964, the gain could have' been good and the patronage dividends higher," he appraised. "However, eventually this policy would have caught up with the company with reduced earnings. It would have been diffi-^ cult to capture markets that would have been lost. Expansion came when it did because opportunities were thrust at the company." Steagall was referring to the chance to buy the Shurtleff Lumber company at Marengo and the desire of the former McHenry County Farmers Cooperative to make a major step toward improving its declining earnings and business. The expansion took place in 1965-1966. The year ahead should show a'satisfactory increase in business volume and efficiency of service, Steagall continued. He told the 750 farmers and their 0wives present he was confident sales growth will increase, and in the immediate years the patronage refunds and savings to farmers will show too. Feed grinding and mixing equipment at McHenry is in top condition, and all nitrogen applicating equipment and spreading equipment has been cleaned, painted and put away to await the spring rush. Re-elected to the board was George Schmidt, McHenry, among others. -> A look at the McHenry FS financial statement shows these highlights: Net income in 1966 was $107,000; it was $128,000 in 1965. Fixed assets have shot up sharply in the past decade- $105,000 in 1957; $142,000 in 1963; $365,000 in 1965; and $419,000 in 1966. Net worth grew from $34P,- 000 in 1957 to $826,000 in 1966.

Without a strong Church, neither democracy nor civilization can survive. There are four sound reasons why every person should attend services regularly and support the Church. They are: (1) For his own sake. (2) For his children's sake. (3) For the sake of his community and nation. (4) For the sake of the Church itself, which needs his moral and material support. Plan to go to church regularly and read your Bible daily. What will the assay prove? Will the nuggets that spill so enticingly from the old leather bag spell the end of a search, the culmination of lifelong hopes for sudden wealth and fortune? Or will they be irOn pyrite, the fooler of men--disappointer of dreams? Only chemical analysis of the metal will determine its ingredients. Sometimes our lives are like that. We fill them" to the brim with the things we think mean happi- ' ness. And then along comes a blow -- perhaps it is a failure of our own, or the betrayal of our trust by a loved one, or an overwhelming grief. Suddenly a life full of glittering trappings seems empty and meaningless. We realize that material , possessions are comfortless and cold, without substance. Spiritual analysis of life points always to God. His Church is the open door to the real treasure of life -- the realization of God as the source of all affluence.
