Three non-profit groups will benefit by the purchase of special holiday cards this year. A wide selection of UNICEF holiday cards, calendiars, stationery and gifts is now on sale at the Chicago UNICEF Information center at 5 N. Wabash avenue, Chicago, room 1502, according to Mrs. Linda Jacobson, director. "Proceeds from the sale of just one box of UNICEF cards can buy a stethoscope for a rural health center, or enough vaccine to immunize sixty-six children against tuberculosis/' she said. The UNICEF shop is open from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, and Saturdays from 10 a.m- to 4 p.m. Mail orders are filled and imprinting of cards is available through the Chicago office. For further information, or for the location of persons selling UNICEF cards in suburban areas, call UNICEF at 372-5359. The 1977 Christmas card offered by the Chicago chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis society and members of its Eleanore Kerns auxiliary is a color photograph of evergreen branches, Wet with dew. Permission to use the picture to assist those afflicted with multiple sclerosis was granted b y a w a r d - w i n n i n g photographer Sister Patricia O'Connor of Designhouse at Barat college, Lake Forest. The message inside reads "Peace, Life, Hope, Joy, Love." Card proceeds will go toward MS research and patient ser­ vices in Chicago and northern Illinois. Cards may be ordered directly from the Chicago chapter, National Multiple Sclerosis society, 53 W. Jackson Blvd., Chicago HI. 60604. One may spread the spirit of Christmas this year by sending beautifully handcrafted cards especially made by The Lambs, Inc. in Libertyville. This is a national center dedicated to the well being of the mentally retarded. The silk screened cards cheerfully depict all the joy the holiday season brings. There are nine original designs. The cards are individually made by the mentally retarded men and women of the Lambs. Three- man teams produce the cards through a silk screening process adapted to match the capabilities of the mentally handicapped. The public is invited to visit the silk screen shop and watch the production in process. The Lambs, located at the junction of the Tri-State and Illinois Route 176 is open daily year- round. Cards can be purchased at the shop or through a brochure. For more in­ formation or to receive the 1977 Christmas card brochure, write to The Lambs, Inc., P.O. Box 520, Libertyville, 111. 60048. Sunnyside Area Betty Messer 344-2494 Meeting Views Controversal Sewage Issue Of prime interest to Sun­ nyside residents as well as other residents along the Fox river was a meeting held at the Johnsburg Community center Oct. 27. This was a public hearing on the proposed Fox Lake sewage treatment plant that plans to dump Lake county sewage in McHenry county's Fox river. Present were Don Von- nahme, director of the Division of Water Resources and Mike Mosley, director of Illinois Environmental Protection agency from Springfield, from McHenry county, State's Rep. Tom Hanahan and Senator Jack Schaffer of Crystal Lake. Other county board members were also present. Over 100 concerned residents turned out including those who live on the Fox river and do not want to see Lake county's sewage dumped in our waters. A number of us are working on cleaning up our waterways and making them safe again for swimming and other outdoor recreation. And here were men telling us they intend to dump 12 million gallons of sewage waste a day into our water. PISTAKEE TERRACE NEWS When Mayor Bilandic of Chicago held his news con­ ference in Chicago city hall among those present was Ted Frett who lives in the Pistakee Terrace area. He, along with fellow workers who are em­ ployed by the Light House, were there to tell the news media of the 100 job openings for the handicapped there. McHENRY DAM LOCKS This year the water level will not be lowered at McHenry lock gates until the middle of November and no later than Dec. 1, 1977. It was determined that if the river is lowered sooner, it could damage fishing and the habitat of wildlife. TERRACE DETACHMENT Sunnyside was organized and incorporated April 9, 1956; during the first year of in­ corporation a parcel of land known as Peter Klapperich's Riverdale subdivision and Knight's Pistakee Terrace subdivision detached from the •- municipality, thus leaving 80 acres within the village limits. Subsequent annexations have expanded the boundaries to over 200 acres in the village now. Now the people of Klapperich Riverdale and Knight's Pistakee Terrace are won­ dering if they made the right decision when they detached themselves from the village and municipality. BIRTHDAYS This week's birthday bouquets go to Carl Olson whose day is Nov. 4. Carrie Lynn Smith has her day Nov. 5. John Lang's day is Nov. 6. Best wishes to you all for a happy day and many more to come.

Griffin. Griffin is empowered to set the interest ceiling based on information compiled by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve system.
