PARTY HUGE SUCCESS Approximately 200 "little ones" and 60 teen-agers from Holiday Hills, Villa VauPelle, and Griswold Lake Hills had the time of their life on Saturday, Oct. 28, when they attended the Halloween party sponsored by the Griswold Lake Property Owners Association. The fun began at 5 p.m. for the toddler through 12 year old group and as they arrived, they had to crawl through a "spooky" tunnel to be ad­ mitted. Different games were planned and played by the youngsters and many went home with prizes they had won. A grand march was held and in the one year through five year olds, Wendy Mazzoni won first place for the "Prettiest"; Jennifer Hunt for the "Most Original"; Margaret Bishop for the "Ugliest"; and Chris Mazzoni ' won for the "Spookiest."^' V or > ' •- ; > In the six through twelve year group, Brian Rossman won for the "Ugliest"; Terry Packard for the "Most Original"; Bob Zeller for the "Prettiest"; and Terri Abbink for the "Spookiest". The kids were treated with cookies, cup cakes, candy and refreshments and all hated to leave when the party ended at 7 p.m. The hard working committee only had a half an hour to prepare for the teen-age group whose party began at 7:30 p.m., but everyting being so well organized, there were no problems and they were ready and waiting. Their party consisted of dancing, bobbing for apples on a string hung from a broomstick, and a very exciting scavenger hunt which was won by Scott Funk, Bob Packard, Chris LaMotta, Marilyn Felde and Cheryl Wheeler. They also had a grand march for the judging of the best costumes and Eileen Connell came in first dressed as a "cornstalk"; Judy Abbink and Nancy Foreman placed second dressed as "Pinocchio and Geppetto" and Marty Zeller placed third dressed as a "beautiful lady." Much planning and hard work was put into this affair before, during and after the party. A big thank you goes to all the kids and adults who contributed their time and efforts. Many people very generously donated candy, pop, prizes, food, refresments and pumpkins which all the children thoroughly enjoyed; and a big thank you is extended to them.

GET-WELL TACKITT CHILDREN The Tackitt family on Poplar Street report both good and bad news this week. Little Raime, who will be one year old on Nov. 28 has just had the cast removed from both his legs. He has been in a cast for eleven months, seems to be doing fine, and it won't be long before he's up and running with his brothers, which is really good news to his parents. Little Jimmy Tackitt, however, has just returned home after spending four days in SU Therese hospital in Waukegan and still is not feeling up to par. We all hope now that he's home again, his recovery will be quick and he'll be out playing with his little friends again real soon.

Farm Bureau Members Share In Service Program McHenry County Farm Bureau members can share in a service program worked out in conjunction with the Florida State Farm Bureau, Henry Edgerton, McHenry County Farm Bureau executive secretary, has announced. "This is a program where farmers make available their products to other farmers," he said. "We send them our products and they send us theirs and both benefit through lower cost, highest quality and personalized service." The oranges and grapefruit may be ordered by using the coupon in the November issue of Farmer's News, the McHenry County Farm Bureau monthly publication. Deadline is late this month, and that's why Edgerton is issuing the in­ formation about the service program now. Truck loads of the ordered fruit will come to the McHenry County Farm Bureau in early December and purchasers will be notified by telephone when to make their pickups. Far­ mers may order either oranges or grapefruit, or both, and as many cartons as they wish to have. Oranges are packed about eighty to a carton. The grapefruit carton has sixty-four grapefruit with a minimum weight of 40 pounds. V.A.
