HOLIDAY TRIP The Stackhouses, Carolyn, Craig, Ann and Craig Jr., with Hobo spent two weeks of the holiday season in Springfield, Pa., which is just outside Philadelphia at Carolyn's parents' home, Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Harvey. Although their visit was a happy one, their spirits were dampened as Grandma Harvey slipped in a supermarket, broke her knee­ cap, and was in the hospital most of the time they were there. They had hoped she'd be home in time for Christmas, but she was not released until Dec. 31. It was a big help to Grandpa Harvey to have them there however, and he especially enjoyed the delicious Christmas dinner Carolyn prepared. Springfield is both Carolyn and Craig's "home town" and they had the opportunity to see many of their old friends, at­ tend several holiday parties, and with visiting back and forth to the hospital, kept the entire family busy and there was never a dull moment. They thoroughly enjoyed their stay and as Carolyn says, - "it sure was nice to be home for Christmas." JUNIOR ^ GIRLSCOUTS It's always nice to hear good things about our youngsters and our Girl Scouts from Holiday Hills Troop 478 sent a little bit of "good cheer" this past holiday season up to the Children's home in Woodstock when they presented them with a number of games to help them idle away the hours. The children were very pleased and it taught our girls that it's just as nice to give as it is to receive. Now that the excitement of the holidays is over, the girls have settled down to serious business and have started their badge work. The troop has been split into three groups, Jackie Carbone is working on the "Cooking Badge"; Cheri Hoglund is working on the "Drawing and Painting" Badge, and Tillie Williams has volunteered her time to teach a group "Needlework." The girls are really enjoying their badge work and show much talent in the area they have chosen. The troop has a full schedule planned from now to the end of the school year and the girls will be kept very busy in the coming months ac- LEARN ELECTRONICS- 3 WAYS TO BUILD A BIGGER, BRIGHTER FUTURE Enroll in one of Bell & Howell Schools exciting, at- home training programs. * Hnmp F.ntprtflinmpnt Electronics Systems.

HOCKEY NEWS If "Mr. Weatherman" would only cooperate a little bit we would have much more to report on our Holiday Hills Hockey League. The boys finally were able to get the rink up and the lights working, but have not had too many nights yet where they could take advantage of it. Who knows, perhaps we'll be reporting hockey news in April since* we're having our spring in January, but the boys have not given up and are still in hopes of some good exciting games over at the channel this season. GET WELL, BETTY Betty Mikkelson of South Riverview just returned home last week after spending nine days in Holy Family hospital and cheery get-well wishes are sent to her with the hopes that she have a very quick recovery. BOWLING NEWS Many of our gals are bowling in the Thursday afternoon ladies league at the alleys over in Island Lake and Holiday Hills can be very proud as four of our gals are presently in the first place spot. Bev Saunders, Katie Gregg, Betty Powell and Carolyn Stackhouse are the team and let's hope with their skill and a little luck they'll still be there when the season ends this spring. There have been some very nice high games, in­ cluding a 201 by Bev Saunders, so keep the ball rolling gals and good luck to all of you! GRANDFATHER HOSPITALIZED Diane Michaelis of Lilac street has been kept very busy going back and forth to St. Francis hospital in Evanston. Some time ago, her grand­ father, John Scott, fell, seriously injuring his back. He was hospitalized for some time and then released but it was found that surgery was necessary and so he returned to the hospital. He has about eleven more weeks there before he can return home and Diane's visits certainly help to brighten up his day. If anyone has a little get-well card around, why not drop it in the mail to Grandpa Scott at St. Francis hospital...eleven weeks is a long time when you're flat on your back in a cast and time passes very slowly so perhaps a few cheery cards at mail time would really help lift his spirits. BLACKHAWK HOCKEY GAME It sure is a "small world" when you can go down to the Chicago Stadium, wander around with 20,000 other people and meet your neighbors.. .but this is what happened to Johnny Connell Sunday night, Jan, 21, when he, Dave Sundby and Jim Brefeld attended the Rlackhawk vs. Pittsburgh Steeler game and bumped into ANNUAL MEET PARTICIPANTS - Pictured, left to right, are four persons who participated in the Lake Region YlVfCA, tenth annual meeting.

CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY Roger and Linda Thietje celebrated their anniversary in great style last Friday night. They were invited to dinner by Linda's mother, Mrs. Alice MacFarlene, and her friend, Erv Barabas, at the Millionaires Club. Linda and Roger danced to the traditional anniversary waltz played especially for them by the band, and enjoyed a special anniversary cocktail served with sparklers. It was a fun evening for Linda and Roger and a very special anniversary to be remembered. TRIP TO SAN DIEGO Only the week before the Thietjes were celebrating their anniversary, Roger Thietje was spending some time in San Diego, Calif., attending a training session on the turban generator for his company. Besides the sessions them­ selves, which he says were extremely interesting, Roger was in for a special treat when he arranged to meet his brother, A1 Bier, whom he hadn't seen for 15 years. Rog spent Saturday, Jan. 13, with his brother and his family in Costa Mesa, Calif. Many hours were spent reminiscing, and once again getting acquainted with each other. They both hope it's not another 15 years before they can see each other again. Roger flew home early Sunday morning to rejoin his family, after an enjoyable week well spent with learning and visiting. TIRED OF SNOW?

Tax Facts FILE EARLY The earlier you your federal income lax return, the earlier you will receive your refund,Roger C. Beck, District director for the Internal Revenue Service has advised. By filling out your tax return now, you avoid the last minute rush and are less likely to make careless mistakes. Before you start, gather together your cancelled checks, receipts and other financial papers and be sure to include a copy of last year's return. Then, take a good look at the new tax forms arjd read the instructions carefully. You will find the completely revised instructions much easier to follow and understand. By preparing your return well ahead of the April 16 filing deadline, it will be easier to determine all your tax deductions and figure the Jowest possible tax. It will also allow time to double-check any problems that may arise and to review your return to correct any possible errors. If you need additional in­ formation or assistance, contact the Internal Revenue Service office nearest you. It's very difficult to per­ suade a siuoker that smoking is bad for his health.
