SPRING IN SEPTEMBER We've all heard the old song, "It's June in January". Well, would you believe, it's spring in September in Wonder Lake? JoAnn Firnbach called last Wednesday, Sept. 5, to report that her father's pear tree is in bloom! The Walter Millers of Lookout Point may well expect to have Christmas pears this year. HISTORICAL VACATION When Mel Miller, govern­ ment and civics teacher at Harrison School, takes a vacation, it's very likely that he will return with something that will benefit his students. This past summer he brought home 100 slides after a trip through some of our most historical eastern states. His home town of Mt. Clemens, Mich., was the first stop on his itinerary, where he caught up with a bit of personal history by visiting relatives and friends. Then he traveled on to view the colonial side of our heritage in Philadelphia; the Civil War era in Gettysburg; our present day in Washington, D.C.; and then on to the Chesapeake Bay area. While in Washington, Mr. Miller gained much personal insight into one of today's most important issues, when he saw the Watergate Building, visited the Senate Office Building where the Watergate hearings were held and spoke to the people in the east about the problem.

West Shore Beach Connie Schmidt 385-7841 Auxiliary Seeks New Title For Women's Group The West Shore Beach women met last Thursday evening at the home of Dolores Jaburek. Refreshments were contributed by Cindy Erickson and the hostess; the night's attendance prize was won by Kitty's mom. It was a special meeting to plan games for the recent subdivision picnic. Those who attended were: Ann Garrelts, Marie Wegner, Grace Latimer, Martha Dignan, Erna Piatt, Katherine Aissen, Lyall Andersen, Pat Hartmann and her mother, and Kitty Baur and her mother from Florida. To increase our enrollment the auxiliary is seeking a new and more modern title that will be more creative and ap­ pealing. There will be questionnaires distributed by some members who will go door to door to meet new ladies. Please cooperate by returning your answers and the name you think would be appropriate for the auxiliary. There will also be questions about other aspects of the club. Our main goal has been to make our beach a better place. We need your support and ideas to make money for im­ provements. Please submit your new title for the club by our next meeting, which is presently the first Thursday of every month. See you all there. OUR GOOD DEED Each week there are many people in our subdivision who do little things that go un­ noticed by the majority. We would like to honor those of you who have been working behind the scenes either on the im­ provement of your own home or for the betterment of the subdivision. Last week Martha Dignan labored down at our beach raking large piles of leaves. There will be many more to fall, so please feel free to lend a hand anytime. We all really appreciated your efforts Martha. DON'T SHOOT One of our residents had a friendly little pigeon visit each day to munch a few crumbs. But he comes no more. There have been reports that birds have been shot by careless gunmen in our subdivision. Please don't shoot those har­ mless creatures that make our area so cheerful. It's a pity that there always has to be that one person who must cause trouble. Do you know what your youngsters are doing right now? GOLDEN AGE Mr. and Mrs. Henry Aissen have recently retired from their working years to time for fun and relaxation. We know they will continue to be active in the community and be of great service. Katherine has the most beautiful flowers around and Henry has given them an even healthier glow. These newlyweds will now settle in their little love nest and enjoy sharing their retirement years together. And may you have many more to come! PERSONALS We're glad to hear Mr. and Mrs. Bill Mohlman, Jr., have speedily recovered from a recent bout of the flu. Many get-well wishes go to Ray Scharlow who has been confined to the hospital. Marie Wegner had the pleasure to host her gran- daughter and her husband from Elgin, Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Prehm and their seven children last weekend. Hope everyone who attended the subdivision elections and picnic had a great time! Creative Writing Course Offered Through Workshop Ray Almquist, a practicing, part-time, free-lance writer from Spring Grove, will repeat his adult evening class, A Workshop in Creative Writing, at the West campus of McHenry Community high school. The creative writing class will meet once a week starting Thursday, Sept. 13, from 7 to 9 p.m. for ten weeks. The class is a practical workshop slanted to the beginning and intermediate writer who wants to go professional on a part-time basis. The basic fiction techniques are stressed at the beginning with the emphasis on their use and importance in writing plays, articles, film scripts and poems as well as fiction. All phases of creative writing are covered with the accent on the students marketing and selling what they write. Enrollment for McHenry Community high school will be at the McHenry County college, Crystal Lake, any day and at the high school the evening at the class. More airplanes were used in the filming of the movie "Hell's Angels" (in 1930) than the U.S. Air Force had at that time.
