Village of McHenry Shores Jude La Francis 385-5067 Dairy Day Will Focus On Records Abundance Of Winter News During Absence if We hope that all of you had enjoyable holidays. We are now looking forward to a great year. May 1978 be a golden year for you. Returning after a two week absence has meant that quite a bit has happened within the village Santa was out in full force Dec. 23 delivering candy to the kids and Purple Passion plants to several ,of the ladies in the village Tjtwas a nice touch to a happy season. A Christmas party was held at the annex for elected and appointed officials and workers of the village task force. It was a fun evening and the food was excellent. Winter driving has caused a problem. Winter driving, with jts own set of rules, is a real trick for those unaccustomed to its hazards Applying the brakes softly, without having the brakes lock thus causing the car to skid, requires practice Many cars are sitting in ditches as a result of the driver's failure to press softly on the brakes If you're having a problem maneuvering on our roads, remember that to exit the village easily and quickly when icy conditions exist, drive downhill to Riverside, McHenry, or Orchid Path then on to Bull Valley This eliminates uphill driving. Youngsters who are sledding are asked to use their sleds on the hilly terrain behind the water tower There have been too many close calls involving youngsters on sleds and automobiles traveling the roads. Also, remember to remove your car from the roadways after a 1" snowfall Try to refrain from parking your cars in the streets while the snow falls silently in your driveway. Cars parked in the roads hinder the plowing, salting and san­ ding of the roads Last week plowing continued "from 5:30 p.m till 1 30 a.m. It only stopped when the blade disengaged from the truck. Repairs were made and the truck was back in working order in a matter of hours. Two weeks ago our village president drove the residential streets of Crystal Lake and those streets compared favorably to our rural' roads with regard to the absence of snow Our one piece of snow removal equipment has been in almost constant use for the past 3 weeks; thus, the men who have been operating the plow have been very busy and very overworked Sally Hogan reports that the Girl Scouts have been busy, too, caroling, making cookies, giving aid, and making Christmas cards Another year of activities is ahead for these A-l HEARING AID REPAIR SERVICE Free Loaners-Complete Service on all Makes Custom Earmolds-30 Day Trial on New Aids.

Children waiting for school busses enjoy sliding on the ice and forget that a thousand pounds of automobile sometimes slide, too Remind ydur children -in fact tell them- -to stay off the snow covered roads when cars approach. This applies in foggy weather, also. We don't want any one to be a statistic in the hospital or the obituary column. HOMECOMING The Harold Nixon family had a blessed Christmas reunion. Daughter Violet, a student at the Apostolic Bible institute in St. Paul, was home until last Saturday. Her brother, Georg<», the assistant pastor of the\ Winona Gospel church in Minnesota, was also home. He preached the sermon at the Christmas day service at the United Pentacostal church in Lakemoor. The holidays were a precious time together for all the Nixons. OUT ON A LIMB Helen Donovan was Christmas shopping Dec. 23, fell, and broke. fieiv left arm. Her husband Bob has been - taking care of the^ chores around the house while Helen is not able to. This is one of those occasions where it is really good to have a man around the^ house. ' This is Helen's third time around for fractures as she has had a broken foot and an arm broken in eleven places before. Let's hope this will end your spell of rough times, Helen.

The number to dial is 385-1390. My apologies for any inconvenience to caller or callee because of this error. BLOOD PRESSURE Barb Nejedly deserves a lot of credit for keeping the records and working with the blood pressure screening. This is one of the very few programs we have that is given without charge to anyone who will come to the Lakemoor municipal building one night a month. \Can't think of a less ex­ pensive and more important way of keeping check on one aspect of our, health. Will remind you again next week to meet Jan. 16-for your health's sake CLOSE SHAVE Give a man a new toy and he will play. Bruno Karas received a long wanted electric razor from Santa this year. And it even had a side-burn and mustache trimmer! You guessed it-as he was trimming away at the growth under his nose, the gadget chopped off half of his mustache. Nothing left to do but remove the rest of it. and ruin completely a year's work of tender, loving car^. Saddest part of all was that no one noticed his nakedness all afternoon Now his family will again have to go through the sprouting period until a full- fledged growth returns. These new toys really do cause problems LLCCI Wtffitn, the next we$k, you will be\receiving a notice asking for; your cooperation in saving Lily Lake. Maggie Dunnagan, secretary, asks that you please give this problem thought and consdieration Fill out the form and bring it to the. next meeting or turn it in at the library. Everybody must get into this act to make it a wor­ thwhile performance ^MORE RESOLUTIONS The contest for New Year's thoughts has not received too many participants Sue Brindise. who just lost ten pounds by nature's decree, wants to lose thirty more Claudia G. wants to lose 35 ugly pounds, especially those caused by the shoe leather covering foot that is often found in mouth! Harold Nixon wants to be a little bitter than he was And the Brian Bakers want to keep the peace in the family.
