Lakemoor-Lilymoor Alma Hueckstaedt 385-5689 PRIZE GARDEN ~ We have in our midst a potential master gardener (I don't know if there is a feminine word for it - how about mistress gardener?) Anyway she is very proud of her garden of this past summer. Pictures were published in a California magazine; and the lady to whom it belongs is Mrs. Stanley Bogdan of 504 Northlake road, Lakemoor. Some of her sunflowers measured more than 14 inches in diameter. Mrs. Bogdan found that planting in blocks rather than in rows cuts down considerably on weeds and it makes for a more pleasant looking garden. When the lady isn't gardening - she is out with her husband taking part in another hobby that I will write on in another week or so. LADIES LEAGUE The members all got together at the home of Jean Dember, where they took part in a pot- luck supper. Seventeen member-s were present which accounted for quite a variety of food. The ladies were thrilled and delighted with their hostess. The table was set up beautifully and when the dinner was over those present were served after dinner drinks. When that portion of the evening was over the business of the club was next on the agenda, with that taken care of, the ladies then played bunco. The prize winners were first, Eunice Tobey; second, Lu Gravenstuk, third, Marie Hyatt, fourth, Viola Arbogast, fifth Connie O'Rourke and Rose Zalenka won the booby prize. From all reports it was a very enjoyable evening with hopes that it could or should be done more often.

Our oniy request is that the writers give - signature, full ad­ dress and phone number. We ask too. that one in­ dividual not write on the same subject more than once each month. We reserve the right to delete any material which we consider libelous or in objectional taste > BOUQUETS "Gentlemen: "As newcomers of about one and one-half years in McHenry, I want to comment on your newspaper. "Not only do we thoroughly enjoy reading it, but it has been very instrumental in helping us get acquainted, participating in local events and learning more weekly about our delightful adopted town. "Last Friday's edition was super in helping us make up our minds about the election held yesterday. That copy was truly dog-eared by Tuesday and provided some lively discussions around our household. We think it was just great that you would provide the space to give your readers all the background you did on the candidates. "Keep up the good work! "Sincerely, "Mrs. T.S. Anderson "913 Hampton Ct., "McHenry" (Editor's note: Our sincere thanks to Mrs. Anderson for her kind words. As in most businesses, those we serve tend to remind us of our offenses rather than our virtues. Folks like Mrs. Anderson-have a way of brightening our day and making all those extra hours of work worthwhile). SCHOOL BUS STOPS "Dear Editor: "For a long time local area school officials and bus drivers have tried to inform the public of the necessity of knowing and abiding by the School Bus Stop Arm law. We, as drivers, know the frustration of being late for an appointment only to get behind or meet a school bus loading or unloading pupils. But as irritating as this can be, this law is still one of the most important and least enforced traffic violations ever written. The flashing red lights are put into operation by the bus driver, not to irritate the other drivers but to warn of an im­ pending dangerous situation, and when the stop arm is out and flashing, this means a child is either approaching or leaving the bus. "Seemingly, the general public, as well as local officials do not care that this highly potential danger signal is ignored. It was ignored once too often, as this last week a child, it could have been yours, crossing the street to enter her school bus, was struck and seriously injured. Luckily, this child lives, but in what con­ dition? "Does the public need a death to prove that this law was not meant just to aggravate them or to give a sense of power to a school bus driver, but meant to protect our children, yours and mine, from death or life as a mental or physical cripple? "Please, pay attention and obey the School Bus Stop Arm Law. Junior High Student Council Aids Recycling PAGE 13 - PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER Saturday, Nov. 16, is scheduled as this month's Recycling day in McHenry and nearby Crystal Lake. The McHenry County Defenders are working along with the Student Council of McHenry Junior high to see that trucks and workers are at the Market Place on W. Route 120 this Saturday from 9 to 5 to receive the bundled newspapers and magazines, flattened cans, and clean bottles and jars that have had all lids and other metal and plastic removed. Anyone with a quantity of properly prepared material who has no way of getting it to the Market Place on Saturday should^ give the McHenry County Defenders representative a call at 385-8512 before that day so that arrangements can be made for pick-ups. A special reminder to all old and new recyclers - please flatten cans before bringing them to the Market Place. Storage is a problem at home, at the recycling center, and while shipping to the recycling plants in Chicago. For this reason, people are asked to cut out the tops and bottoms of the clean cans. Once the paper label is removed, put the lids inside the can and step on it to flatten it well, beverage cans, which do not respond to mogj can openers, can be flattened with the foot or a sledge hammer. Sledge hammers'are "The very concerned "Bus Drivers of SEDOM "Dorothy Taylor "Transportation Director" available at the recycling center for people to use to flatten their own cans, although it is preferred that this be done at home. Bring papers bundled for easy handling. There is free rope available for anyone needing some. Because of the Christmas h o l i d a y s , D e c e m b e r ' s Recycling day will be a week earlier than usual. Rather than the third Saturday, it will be held on the second Saturday, Dec. 14. McHenry County Defenders urge all county residents to become involved in their en­ vironment. Alan Estis Volunteer At Park District Alan Estis of 2217 W.

The board works closely with resident assistants in pro\ "feed back" from students i in answering students' questions on campus activities and matters concerning residence living. "If the students want to change visitation policies or the food service, they work through the RSB," said Hansen. This year, members will also be assisting the Admissions office in escorting prospective new students through campus facilities.
