MCHENRY PLAINDEALER SERVING THE CHAIN-O-LAKE S REGION SINCE 1875" McHenry Plaindealer - Thursday, June 22f 1967 SUMYSIDE ESTATES HM!I>; S*»£«TKtr»in 3tt$-fKH{4 Murli-ne Berg .S85-JMIH SPECIAL WIRING NEkDED FOR GOOD WATER SUPPLY Vernon C. Karnath, Manager of Utilities, Inc., paid a visit to the Seger strom home on Wednesday . Mr. Karanth and his associates fully understand our water situation and have been working on it for many months. At present we have a 7% horse power pump, which of course is not sufficient to pump water in our area. For a year a 20 horse ppwer pump has been awaiting installation. The cause for delay is that three phase wiring is needed before it can be put in. As yet the power company has made no attempt to do so. The rusty water we have been experiencing all week is due to the flushing out of the entire system and new blow off pipes that are being installed. Many people do not realize just how many phone calls, letters, personal interviews, blind alleys, legal red tape and double talk that the water company and our association has been experiencing. It is easy to sit back and put the blame on someone or simply say something has to be done. It is being done but as in everything, it takes time. ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION Velma and A1 Stephens were greeted throughout their special day by the Zeigers, the Kennebecks, Claire Hoettels, and Jane Ho£f and her son, Ed, who are from Chicago, but reside on the Bay during the summer.

FOOD POISONING Illness causedby food poisoning is a particular hazard in hot weather, Dr. Franklin D. Yoder, director of the Illinois Department of Public Health, cautioned. Dr. Yoder said that most instances of food poisoning result from food that is handled too much, inadequately processed or imperfectly preserved. Potato and similar salads are examples of food that is excessively handled and often imperfectly preserved. Hot, creamed or scalloped dishes, especially those containing milk, eggs, flour or starch, should be cooked just before picnic time and kept piping hot until served. Any meat, fish or poultry precooked for salads should be cooled quickly after cooking. Slow cooling of large amounts invites bacterial growth. Another common type of bacteria that causes food infection is salmonella, he said. Foods usually involved in salmonella infections are inadquately cooked egg products and poultry and non-pasteurized milk and cheese.
