It seems some irresponsible children have been throwing rocks at the ducks and in the process have broken the lights. This is an unnecessary cruelty to harmless birds who hurt no one. To kill or cripple helpless birds is senseless. We're trying to preserve wildlife and keep the natural beauty of our area. If we are going to preserve the wildlife and restore our lakes and rivers, we can start at home. A word from parents to their children about being destructive and cruel to animals would help. The beach is for all in the area to enjoy so why destroy it? If we can't educate those who live here, how can we educate those who come to the area on weekends and make it a floating garbage dump? CONDOLENCES The village, friends and neighbors of Art Kussrath extend condolences to his widow. Louise, and her family. Mr . Kussrath passed away April 20 after a long illness. One of the oldest residents in the area, Mr. Kussrath came in 1939 to Sunnyside. He and his wife made their home at 1415 Sunnyside drive. They celebrated their fifty-sixth anniversary Feb. 26. He will be missed by his many friends and neighbors. BUNCO PARTY Several ladies from the area have formed a bunco club. The ladies meet in one another's homes to play bunco every other week.
