LAKELAND PARK NEWS Carole Humann 385-1605 Notify Police with Complaints of Stray Dogs Quite a few people have caled me during the past week to complain about stray dogs and to ask what to do about them. The proper procedure for this situation is to call the McHenry police and they will dispatch a squad car to pick up the offending animal. The police will contact the owners and take it from there. It is against the city ordinance to allow dogs to run loose and owners are subject to a fine. LPPOA NOTES*^' The regular meeting of the board of the Lakeland Park Property Owners Association will be held on Wednesday evening, Aug. 16, at 8 p.m. at the community house. Any in- ' terested members are welcome to attend these meetings at any time.

These were installed through the Woman's Club. More improvements include repairing the driveway at the community house and at the beach.

LITTLE LEAGUE The Twins played a game with a Cary team last Monday and were defeated by a score of 8-5. The game was called on account of darkness. BOY SCOUT TROOP 459 A program about the Boy Scout Jamboree will be shown on Aug. 18 at 8 p.m. on Channel 7. Some of the boys who attended the Jamboree were in the area of the TV cameras and possibly some of them can be seen on the program. Even if none of them are shown, the program itself is of much interest as this is the first Jamboree to be held in the United States. A Green Bar meeting will be held at Scoutleader Joe Prazak's home on Aug. 24. The probable time is 7 p.m. All patrol leaders and officers are to attend. On Sept. 5 the troop will resume the normal meeting hours of 7 to 9 p.m. This first meeting will be Buddy night. Each Scout is to bring a friend who could be interested in Scouting. Future plans for the troop include a Fall Camporee to be held on Oct. 13-14-15. Definite plans have not been completed for this occasion. CUB SCOUT PACK 459 The parents of all Cub Scouts and of potential Cub Scouts are reminded of the pack meeting to be held on Monday, Aug. 21 at 7:30 p.m. at the community house.

After all the get-well wishes to people in the last column we can report that some of them are on the road to recovery. Kay Druml came home on Thursday and is recuperating from surgery. Jan Walker is also back at home after a too long stay at Silver Cross hospital in Joliet where she had surgery on her knee. She has orders to stay off the offending member but at least is back home again. Irene Koehl is making a good recovery and should be able to come home if she isn't already home. Continued good health to all of them. Tammy Leone celebrated her eighth birthday on Aug. 10 with a group of friends. It was supposed to be a pool party but the weather wouldn't cooperate so they played games and had a dancing session in the rec room. Her guests were Holly Arient, Meg and Barbie Humann, Sherry Koehl. Debbie 'Benesv Debbie Wrecke, andlast but far from least, Tammy's little sister, Robin. A clown cake was served with ice cream and fixin's. The Kochs had a patio steak fry with all the trimmings on Saturday evening. Shirley's brother, Jack Meilahn, brought his banjo to entertain the guests. The guests included relatives and friends. A picnic was held on Sunday evening at the beach and included the three CFM groups from St. Patrick's church. Among the group were Jack and Petey Oakford, Len and Vickey Bottari and Irv and Dottie Becker. Bob Matthews was in town the end of last week on business and was able to visit with his Mom, Eleanor Haerle, on Friday evening, where he had one of Mom's home cooked meals. The Matthews family is all settled in their new home and the lads have been making friends with' their new neighbors. John and Shirley Meurer spent a few days visiting with their Aunt Jo in Wheaton. They were traded for Janice Ellis who spent a few days with the Meurer s on their tradethe- kids plan! Barb and the kids drove into Wheaton on Wednesday to make the swap and get their own kids back again. Better start using name tags! Mr. and Mrs. Poole have a houseful erf kids to keep things jumping. Their daughter, Virginia Fry, and her five children came from Milwaukee to visit, neighborhood as well as their Knor cousins. Grandma and Grandpa are having a good time ^siting with Virginia as well as the three little guys, Doug, David and Gregory. Marie Matchen is in Muskegon, Mich., taking care of her grand-daughter, Michelle, while daughter, Linda Meunier is recuperating after the birth of her second daughter, Lisa, who was born on Aiig. 8. Congratulations to the Meuniers and to the Matchens. on the latest blessed event. A big thanks to all the nice people who called during the short week to give me news. Calls are appreciated very much and especially after hearing what a tough time they have getting through. Not to give excuses, cuz I don't have a reputation for being the silent type and am a terrible example for teen-age daughters and the phone, but we do have lots of people using the phone and we really appreciate some-one who will try a few times to break through the sound barrier to call us. By actual count the phone rang nineteen times within one hour the other evening. At least the phone company should be happy, I think? 0 HERDS HAILED Dr. Franklin D. Yoder, head of the Department of Public Health, described the milk sanitation program of dairy herds at Illinois' four major correctional institutions as "worthy of emulation by all Illinois milk producers and processers." Operators included those at Stateville Penitentiary in Joliet, Menard Penitentiary at Chester, Pontiac Penitentiary at Pontiac and the Illinois State Farm at Vandalia. Women's new Easter outfits do not take a back seat to anybody, not in church, at least. Good habits are as hard to break as bad ones, but not as much fun. For Your Information Dear friends. Many families provide in advance for cemetery or mausoleum arrangement. In such case you need only notify your funeral director of your plans and he will secure the necessary burial permit. If no plot is owned, the funeral director can arrange a visit to the cemetery of yoiir choice and the purchase of cemetery property.

How can I remove a scorch from a white shirt? . A. If rather light, and not too deeply burned into the fabric, this scorch will sometimes vanish when sponged with a cloth dipped in peroxide, then ironed again over the blemished area with a dry, clean cloth over it. Q. How can I clean glazed brick floors? A. Dust them with a push broom or a dry mop. Wash with a sponge or cloth wrung out of warm, sudsy water. Rinse, and wipe dry. For a very dirty floor, use an once of sodium hydrosulphite dissolved in a gallon of warm water. Q. How can I make brown sugar syriqj? A. Simply use one ciq> of brown sugar to 1/3 - cup of water, and let this come to the boiling point. Q. How can I make sure that the leftover paint in a can will remain fresh and not harden? A, By airtight sealing of the can. To accomplish this, replace the cover as tightly as you can, then turn the can upside down momentarily, then right-side-up again. Enough paint will flow around the edges of the cover to provide a seal. Q. How can I re-whiten linens that have become yellowed from storage? A. Try soaking in buttermilk for two or three days. Many other such tips on the card and cleaning of fabrics are contained in my new household- hints book. Q. How can I bake a layer cake in one pan? A.. If your pan is of sufficient depth, try placingpieces of waxed paper between each layer. Q. How can I remove rust stains from my kitchen sink? A. Pour a few drops of vinegar on the stains, leave there for about fifteen minutes, then scour the sink in the usual manner. Q. How can I make my own putty? A. By mixing linseed oil and sifted whiting to the proper, usable consistency. Q. What can I do about moths that have invaded a clothes closet? A. After making sure first to get rid of. the moths in the clothes themselves, spray a good strong fluid insecticide VERY thoroughly all around the closet and behind the baseboards and moldings. It's better still, if you can, to pry baseboards and moldings loose an inch or so from the wall to insure the fluid getting behind them. Keep clothes out of the closet for about a week, then give it another dose of insecticide, and a week later you can replace the clothes along with about a pound of naphthalene flakes or any good moth repellent to discourage any future visits by these pests. Q. How can I prepare a good oak stain? A. By mixing a quart of boiled linseed oil, three gills of turpentine, six tablespoons of raw umber, and six tablespoons of whiting. Q. How can I clean tarnished brass? A. One often-effective remedy is to rub over the blemished spots on the brass with a lemon" rind that has been dipped in salt. Q. How can I remove slight scratches from plate glass? A. First rub with a pad of cotton wool. Then cover the pad with a layer of cotton felt well charged with fine jeweler's rouge, and this when rubbed over the surface of the glass will not only remove the scratches, but will add luster. Q. Is there any way I can AUG 16, 1967 - PLAIN DEALER - SEC. 2, PG. II A. Whether it is silk, cotton, or wool, if the black material is rinsed in deep bluing water, this will improve its color and 'appearance. renovate dented table tennis balls? A. Sometimes these will pop back into shape if hot water is poured over them. The heat of the water expands the air inside the balls, which presses out the dents. Q. How can I improve the appearance of black material when laundering?
