PAGE »- PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, JULY *. If78 Lakemoor-Lilymoor Margaret Karas 385-4934 Hit-Run Auto And Mailbox Come To Blows The demolition derby is on again on Lily Lake road. Nancy O'Neil's mailbox was com­ pletely wrecked this past week. Some motorist is driving a car with a severely damaged right front bumper and-or fender, marked with white paint This mailbox was con­ structed by former owner Anna Asmus' son-in-law, Walter Wakat Steel pipe, cement base, and solid metal box still did not stop this driver at 2 a m. At least Nancy has the satisfaction of knowing that some car is also in sad shape. Nancy does have a few unkind words about the reaction of our post office superintendent to this situation. It seems mail can only be picked up at the post office at a certain time, and only by the adressee So Nancy has not received any Jhail lately, due to circumstances beyond her control, and a dogmatic post office regulator in McHenry Perhaps our considerate, conscientious mail carrier, Tom Wiles, will be able to help Nancy temporarily HEALTH NOTES Vicky Behan, the Florence Nightingale of our area, is still supervising the blood pressure taking at the Lakemoor municipal building. This is a free service. High or low blood pressure can be an indication of an existing problem. Awareness makes treatment and cure possible L.L.L.L. The big news at the Lily Lake Ladies league social meeting last Wednesday was an in­ vitation from former Lilymoorite Eunice Tobey. Eunice endeared herself to our community for many years with her musical talent and nelping heart. She is now at horne in Tarpon Springs, Fla., and will be starting a new life with her upcoming marriage July 28 The ladies would certainly enjoy going to Eunice s wed­ ding. but distance will probably be the deciding factor Best wishes to Eunice, and we're sure Tarpon Springs is the more exciting for her being there The games enjoyed by the ladies, found Lu Gravenstuk, the lady who provides the news for the group, receiving first prize Connie O'Rourke was next, with Anna Brzezinski getting third. Julia Kraus was the lucky booby prize winner. Hostesses Helen Para and Connie O'Rourke did the ser­ ving and provided the caloric intake. ADDENDA Adding to KAFVvs M&M (Musin' and Meanderin') column of |ast Wednesday and her experience^at the driver's license office. Bruno and I discovered that the time not to go for a new license is lunch time (a looong wait), or on Mondays, when there is no -wait, (the office is closed). Also, if the picture taken by the expert photographer there shows you to be about 150 years old and suffering from dropsy, just forget it, Charlie. No retakes. Just live with that gorgeous replica for three years. The test itself is very simple. Bruno got zero wrong and I made 100 right so anyone can do it. Good luck TRAVELING Jo Ann Chambers, who will be 15 on July 26, is taking a motoring trip to Minnesota with her i grandfather, Opie Chambers They will spend a few days with relatives, in­ cluding great grandmother Elsie Berends, who has been vacationing there for a few weeks The three generations will return home together A happy birthday is wished for Joby plus a safe trip home for all CLAN CAPERS A1 and Marilyn Ryan's af­ ternoon of fun and games July 16, resulted in a $225 donation to »the American Cancer society. About fifty members and friends of the Ryan clan came v to enjoy, reminisce, and return home with a memento of Grandfather Ryan's summer home in Lilymoor. Among the items auctioned r off was an old growler beer bucket that brought $12.50. Old dues receipts from the Lilymoor association, donated by Marion Leske, went for $1.50. A picture of grandfather Ryan, an oil can, door stop, and hooks were favorites for the bidding. The table, which served our library so well for the past seven years as the base for the card catalog files, brought $7 And it all totaled up to a fine donation to help fight cancer ^ Among the guests who en­ joyed eating and drinking was Mrs. Legge. one of our area's oldest members. A highlight of the entertainment, (?) was Al's rendition of "The Night Pat Murphy Died", which has been the theme song of the Ryan clan. Copies of the song were •p given to everyone and all joined in this fitting tribute to Grandfather Ryan. So another haDDV memory is tucked into A1 and Marilyn's scrap book. We will miss you, but our loss is Wisonsin's gain BIRTHDAYS Besides Jo Ann Chambers fifteenth on the twenty-sixth. Bruno Karas, my first husband, celebrates his 404 year. He has finally conceded defeat to the 39 year-old myth. William Martin and Beverly Anderson also have birthdays on the twenty- sixth, a popular date. July 27 is shared by Casey Krawczyk, Leroy Lippert and Anthony (Skipper) Gurske. Terrence Bird, little Wendy Bird's father, (sounds like Peter Pan, doesn't it?) celebrates his day July 28 and Nancy Stockwell July 29. One of the Hagers with the pretty first names, Heather, has her day Aug. l. Happiness, health and hope are wished for all birthday children. COMMUNITY CALENDAR Aug. 8-Lilymoor association.

Servant, a contemporary Christian music group from Judson college in Elgin, will give a concert at 6 p.m. Aug. 6, in Wonder Lake Bible church. The public is invited. Made up of six Judson students, Servant is performing throughout the country this year. The name is drawn from a recurring theme in the bible. The young performers turn especially to Philippians 2: 5-7. "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men." Servant is the fifteenth musical ensemble to tour as part of Judson's Summer Reach-Out program. One of the midwest's best known Christian groups, the Good News Circle, started as a Judson summer team. Servant will be traveling more than 10,000 miles and performing in some sixty locales during the spring, summer, and early fall of 1978. Don Long, a senior from Crawfordsville, Ind., is team leader. He plays bass guitar and sings baritone. He is joined by Wendy Emerson, senior from Copley, Ohio, who plays piano and sings alto; Valerie Bach, senior from Wonder Lake, a soprano and flautist; Brenda Ritter. middler from Crawfordsville, who sings soprano and plays the elec­ tronic omni harp; Tony Wold, freshman from Niles, Mich., who sings tenor and plays keyboard and brass in­ struments; and Tom Faris, a senior from Bedford, Ind., who sings tenor and plays saxophone. All hive been ac­ tive in Judson musical life. "Our purpose is to glorify the Lord," says leader, Don Long "We'll present Him through preaching and singing." Judson college is a fully- accredited, Baptist-affiliated, liberal arts college offering a curriculum leading to a bachelor of arts degree.
