PAGE 20 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1973 Lakemoor-Lilymoor Alma Hueckstaedt Cheryl Mumma 385-5689 Many Residents Fail To Pay Yearly Dues Many residents of Lilymoor are behind in their dues for the year. If these dues do not come in, there will not be enough in the treasury to pay for a whole Winter's plowing or sanding when necessary, because of icy conditions. If you are one of those who owe on the 1973 dues, send a check for the balance due to Florence Martensen of 1001 W. Dale avenue. The last quarter of dues were due on Sept. 1. If some of you have held back on the dues because of the annexation, let me explain something. If and when we annex to Lakemoor, we still need the Association, for a year or two after the an­ nexation takes place, until our taxes and revenue sharing monies come back to the village in order to maintain our reads and have our garbage picked up. So, if you are one of the delinquent ones, please get in touch with Florence, now. APPRECIATION DINNER On Sept. 10, a dinner was given to honor Pacita Morrison. Pat had held office of village clerk for twelve years. The dinner was preceded by prayer by Reverend Graef. There were eighty-five friends and neighbors of Pat's that enjoyed a dinner of salads, mashed potatoes, gravy, peas and carrots, chicken, roast beef, sauerkraut and polish sausage, cake and coffee. Following the dinner Pat was presented with a framed certificate and a cash gift. VISITORS Mr. and Mrs. Hoppert, for­ merly of this locality, spent time this past week visiting friends in the area. The Hop- perts now reside in Florida. PROUD GRANDPA Bill Gunther is popping his buttons due to the birth of his first grandson. After four granddaughters the first heir to carry on the Gunther name is William F. Gunther, III. He made his appearance in the world on Sept. 9 at St. Alexis hospital in Elk Grove Village.

Frank will be studying Business Ad­ ministration. Good luck in the coming year, Frank, from all your friends and neighbors. DAY OUT Eunice Tobey spent all of one day in Sauk Village with Mr. and Mrs. Bud Caho. After Eunice returned home, the Cahos returned to Florida. ATTENDS WEDDING Mr. and Mrs. Herb Polinski attended the wedding of Herb's niece. Miss Loretta Polinski. She was united in marriage to Mr. Steven Maylan in Waukegan on Sept. 8. Also attending were Mr. and Mrs. James Kelly of Lakemoor. BUS STOP Regarding the item in last week's column, many of you parents may be thinking it must be the bus stop down the road or on the other side of the lake. Well, that item referred to Southside and Lilylake Road. If any of you mothers who accompany your child or children to other bus stops, see any of these goings on, pleas, call me and let me know about it and name the streets, for those parents who may not realize it is happening by their children or to them. This kind of bus stop violence should stop -- even if a group of concerned parents go and see the parents of the ones who are causing the trouble. The troublesome ones are not of one age group. They run from first grade on up. Question, not only your children, but, other ones in your area and they will tell you who the ones are who create the problems. We'll keep you informed as the weeks go by, to let you know how things are progressing ~ good or bad. DONATION The Village Board voted, unanimously, to donate the old duplicating machine to the Lexington House in Waukegan. Alyce Kowal was very happy to be able to take the equipment to the home where she is hoping to get a small newspaper together for the residents of the home with the help of a few persons there. Due to the last item, a few weeks ago, Alyce has acquired the services of a typist, and a couple of men to hold religious services. She also had a dentist chair donated, to be used as a barber chair. If any of you want to donate any time or items for pleasure for the residents, Alyce would be thrilled to have you get in touch, either by calling me or you can write or call her at the Lexington House at 1101 S. Lewis Ave., Waukegan, 111. c-o Activity Director. The elderly residents mean a lot to Alyce and if she can give them some pleasure every day, it in turn makes her feel her job is all worth while; but, she cannot do it alone. Anyway you can help will be greatly ap­ preciated - not only by her but, by the residents, as well. In case some of you don't already know, Joseph Sarley is living at the Lexington House and he enjoys hearing of his village and from his friends. So, why not drop a card and brighten his days there. BUS SHELTER Last winter, the children of Lakemoor were able to wait in the community building during •he had weather months. I Hiring this time, Pat Morrison and Pat Meald accompanied 'he children, while they waited tor the school bus. This year. Pat Heald, once again, is volunteering her services, but she needs help. It takes two or n ore mothers. If any of you will spend time every morning with the children, you should get in touch with Margaret Hatch We definitely need more mothers like Pat Heald to keep order at the bus stops. With enough volunteers, it would not have to be an every day routine. You could work out an alternating routine. So let's hear from you. CROSSING GUARD Patrolman Reese was ap­ pointed to act as morning crossing guard on the highway in Lakemoor. Many parents may breathe a sigh of relief in knowing that your youngsters will be safe in the mornings. NOTE OF THANKS President Hyatt read a note from Pacita Morrison following the dinner in her honor on September tenth. She was thrilled to know that her ser­ vices to the village were not forgotten and that she has many, many friends in the area. Pat has a vast number of friends that, for one reason or another, were not able to attend the dinner. But, their thoughts and prayers have been with her during her recent illness and her slow recuperation. NEW PATROLMAN In the Aug. 1 column, I reported that Tom Reese was appointed as police trainee for the Village of Lakemoor. At the Village meeting on Sept. 13, he was appointed as a regular on the police force. IN CLOSING Just a last minute reminder - please get in touch with me if you hear about or see any bad conduct going on at the bus stops. Your name doesn't have to be used in the column, or anywhere, unless you want it known. The safety of your child and other children should be your first and most important consideration! See you next week! FAIR CREDIT BILL Congressman John B. An­ derson (R. 111.) has sponsored legislation that would bar discrimination based on sex or marital status in the extension of credit. Anderson, chairman of the House Republican conference, joined forty-five other House members in of­ fering the measure, which he called "a significant step toward financial equality for men and women, married or single." The bill would require creditors to give equal credit opportunity to those who apply, regardless of sex or marital status.

Conference mem- From The Farm WHEAT SEEDING Many McHenry county farmers may increase their acreages of wheat this year to cash in on the growing demand and expected strong'prices for the crop. AH wheat growers should be shooting for top yields in 1974. Apply 30 to 60 pounds per acre of available P205 through the seed drill when you plant or broadcast about 60 to 120 pounds per acre before plan­ ting Wheat uses a limited amount of nitrogen for fall growth. Generally 20 to 40 pounds of nitrogen per acre is sufficient at seeding time. Seed the wheat anytime after the Hessian fly free date of September 20. Seed one and one half bushels per acre. Increase the rate if seeding is delayed into October. Hard wheat varieties are Gage, Centurk and Parker. Soft wheat varieties are Abe, Ar­ thur, Arthur 71, Benhur and Monon. DRYERATION You can save fuel, improve corn quality, and increase drying capacity in high- be rship represents all major women's service organizations in the state and any interested citizen is invited to participate. temperature drying systems by- using dryeration. Dryeration involves removing 16-to 18- percent moisture corn hot from the dryer, holding it for 4-10 hours without air (tempering), and cooling it in the bin. An airflow rate of 'L» cfm-bu. will reduce the moisture content by about- 2 percent in 12 hours or less. You can then transfer the grain to market or permanent storage. Tempering and slow- cooling the grain reduces stress cracks and kernel breakage normally associated with out- of-bin drying. With continuous- flow dryers, the cooling section can be converted to a heating section increasing drying capacity. And the drying rate in batch dryers is increased because the cooling cycle is eliminated. GRAIN DRYING EQUIPMENT A simple check of your grain drying equipment ahead of harvest can prevent costly delays and increase safety. Here are a few areas to check: - Motors. Be certain they are free of insect nests, dust and debris. - Fan bearings. They may need repacking. The manufacturer's instruction book includes repacking procedures and type of lubricant to use. - Motor circuits. Be certain the circuits are properly protected by the correct size of time-lag fuses. - Wiring. If you use tem­ porary wiring each year, consider installing permanent underground circuits and weatherpnHif outlets. - Lighting. Good night lights around drying equipment in­ crease operator efficiency and reduce hazards. Consider floodlight clusters at strategic points or pole-mounted security lights with automatic controls. DAIRY RECORDS Accurate breeding records make it possible for you to keep your cows on a regular production schedule. Keep records of freshening dates, heat dates, date bred, and other observations. Such records help to detect irregularities and will help your veterinarian make an accurate diagnosis 011 problem cows. For greatest breeding ef­ ficiency. cows should not be bred for at least 60 days after calving. About 65 to 70 percent of them will settle on the first service. The rest will show estrus, or heat, about 21 days after breeding, but may vary from 18 to 24 days. Legal Notice NOTICE The Village of Sunnyside is accepting bids for snow- plowing in said village. Sealed bids should be in the hands of the Village Clerk before the next regular meeting, October 2nd, 1973. Evelyn Sandell Village Clerk 1318 Bayview McHenry, 111. (Pub.
