The group enjoyed participating in discussions and singing groups as well as listening to the various speakers. Residents who were members of the Youth Conference included Mrs. Joanne Chappell, Nancy Christie, Ernie Lense, Judy Revak and Doug Viita. I was told the group brought back a full bus load of people due to an accident and that they enjoyed the trip tremendously, including the bus ride part of it!

Saturday night they en tertained guests in their home and Sharon served a delicious late night meal rather than a snack, which along with her golden pheasant was terrific! Steve and I were there for the fun evening along with Len and Gerry Stutz from West Chicago, and Dorothy Lense and Beverly Walinski. It was a most enjoyable evening and those of us who braved the extreme cold to join John and Sharon were indeed glad we did! Sunday, John, Sharon and little Jay, were off to Chicago for the day where they attended the christening of baby Vanessa Ann, daughter of Eddie and Anna Puchalski. Godfather Daniel Mydlowski and Godmother Betty Cash were joined by their families and relatives who traveled from as far as Indiana for the very festive and happy oc casion. Congratulations were extended to Vanessa's very proud dad and mom, as her Grandmother Puchalski beamed, by guests that in cluded Sharon's folks, Mr. and Mrs. DeSilva, Sharon's sister, Donna, and their Grandmother Mydlowski, Jackie and Danielle Mydlowski, and Eddie's godmother and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. John Li twin. Everyone had a most en joyable visit and Sharon said the food was just delicious, and that she was sure the guests, which numbered ap proximately thirty-five people, thought so also! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY Leroy and Clara (Coleman) Freund celebrate their sixth wedding anniversary on Sunday, Jan. 20. Congratulations!

She has resided in this area for three years and we know she will be missed by her many relatives and friends. WATER PROBLEM, STILL... It's been brought to my at tention by several residents that their water is still discolored and "terrible". Some residents say their water isn't only cloudy but is actually brown in color. So, once again, any resident who has a problem or has had a problem in the past with their water system is asked t0 write to John An derson, the Environmental Protection Agency, 2200 Churchill Drive, Springfield 62706. Just explain to Mr. Anderson any problems you have had with your water and perhaps (by Father Wm Hanner, retired Episcopal vicar) Last week the Episcopal church called a conference on its work and policy in the Caribbean. Because of our work on the Island of St. Vin cent, Mrs. Hanner and I were appointed to the conference. The Episcopal church and its mother church, the Church of England, have twenty-three dioceses in, or abutting on the Caribbean. There is enormous complexity in the work in this area. There is an independent Province (group of dioceses) of the West Indies, an outgrowth of the Church of England's work amongst what were once English colonies. We have work in the places where the United States has had an interest. Some of these dioceses are South American in orientation; some are Central American in locus. Some are islands in the sea. English, Spanish and French are spoken in the area Places that were once English colonies look to England and to Canada. Others look to the United States. Still others are independent nations on their own, with large problems and small resources. There is a patchwork of races in the area, native Indian tribes, black slaves, whites, Indians from India, orientals and the mix ture of descendants from all these former and original strains survive. Besides the racial melting pot and its problems, there is our joint efforts will bring about a solution, once and for all. If you do have a complaint, why not sit down right now and write that letter! NOTE: Jan. 31 is the last day for voters to file application for a ballot in person to enable them to vote in the special election to be held Feb. 5. The voting will be held at the community house and if for some reason you will be unable to get there in person, do get your ballot to vote! This special election will fill the vacancy in the office of the alderman of our ward, the Fourth.Once again the can didates are: Edward M. Druml, Sr., 5219 W. Shorehill; LaVerne Hromec, 1611 N. Pleasant; Ronald H. Meurer, 4814 W. Prairie; Ronald R. Nystrom, 4807 W. Shore Drive; Ernest D. Schooley, 5219 W. Victor; and Lloyd E. Wagner, 2006 N. Oak Drive. It's an important election so be sure to cast your vote, if not in person, by absentee ballot. over population, inadequate communication, economic uncertainty, lack of education, uncertain objectives (some remote of possibility) and political complexity of vast proportions further com plicated by personal hopes and ambitions. Our conference centered about how, as a body, the Episcopal church might be of help and aid to the whole of the Church in the West Indies. There is now competition for such resources as are available. An energetic bishop may unearth resources not found by a bishop with a dif ferent approach to his problems. Money and men are always needed and there is never enough of either. The men have to be able and well trained. Some great needs of the churches in the Caribbean appear to be: I - When the work was new and starting, money was needed for many things. Care for aged workers seemed far away. Today a pension fund is of great importance. It is a primary need. It cares for those who ought to quit. It attracts those whose salary will never enable them to make provision for declining years. A good pension plan cares for elderly workers and assures the rising generation they will be provided for when old age arrives. II - The training of clergy is of high priority. A clergyman must know his job. He is called on for many skills. He must be able to speak and write. He must know scripture and history. He must know people and their problems and be able to help and advise in many pastoral situations. He must know when a case is too complex for him to handle and where he can get help. He must be able to teach the faith of the Church (and many other things as well). III - The birth rate in the Caribbean is tremendously high. There are armies of youth and children. Schools and skills must be provided if the youth are to be citizens of productive value rather than consumers only. IV - There must be plans for the work of the future Church. Their formulation and development needs money and personnel. V - There is an absence of good up-to-date magazines and papers and other means of communications. How do you reach so many? With what? New Franchise Disclosure Act Now Effective A new Franchise Disclosure Act effective Jan. 1 requires all franchisors and subfranchisors to file complete disclosure statements with the Secretary „of State's office for all fran chises sold for $100 or more in Illinois. Secretary of State Michael J. Howlett said the Act, approved by the General Assembly and signed into law by the Governor on Sept. 21, is being ad ministered by his Securities division. „ Howlett said enforcement provisions are under the jurisdiction of the Attorney General. "The need to regulate franchise offerings became apparent when numerous Illinois citizens reported substantial losses due to the lack of full and complete in formation regarding franchises offered for sale," said Howlett. He explained that the Act requires franchisors to make a full written disclosure to prospective franchisees of all The world has found and so has the U.S.A. that massive doses of cash do not solve all problems. We have spent money like water and there is no decrease of problems. Money can become a spiritual albatross. There is a quality of life that escapes currency. Caribbean Christianity has ' wonderful and holy aspects. The people from the Islands love their churches. They hunt them up when they move. The Church has had successes ~ it has produced many fine Christian folk. They have a spiritual elan often missed in a faster paced life. They have a joy in living. They love God. These Islands do not need to be planned for but with. There is a trust between us-there is mutual respect. Here are two areas or provinces of the Church feeling their way together. They can mean as much to each other as any two dear Christian friends can mean to each other. We plan additional study and work together toward mutual growth and Christian success. <zSh£zman CMOLL±£. ^f^Eiiawiant 7812 HIWAY 12 SOLON MILLS 6 Mi. N.W.
