JULY IS. 1919 Lakemoor-Lilymoor Margaret Karas 385-4934 W5 Community Quilt Shown At Library Helps Lake EHort The artistic handwork of people in our area is on display at the McHenry Nunda library on Lily Lake road. Em­ broidered, appliqued and painted designs have been done on the white squares. For anyone wishing to have a part in the making of this quilt, squares are still available at the library. Some are prestamped, or ones' own. design may be used. Hie quilt, with its theme of nature, has been designed by Louise Hipwell for the Lily Lake conservation club. This is another way of showing off the talents of our people while helping towards the cost of beautifying Lily Lake. LADIES NIGHT Wednesday, July 18, mem­ bers of the Lily Lake Ladies League enjoyed their social night at the municipal hall in Lakemoor. The hostesses were Lu Scharff and Carol Voelke. Lu Gravenstuk finally won playing Bunco, and the first prize, at that. Sophie Paterson won second, and Mildred Boyd, third. Julia Kraus was last but not least, winning the booby prize. Mildred Nejedly was among those absent, as she was busy enjoying Great America with her grandchildren. Tracy and Ronnie Bonesz were especially^ excited. Also absent was Marie Hyatt, who is now homfe recuperating after her stay at the McHenry hospital. CONDOLENCES Sympathy is given to* the family of baby Lee Conrad, son of Milton and Amanda Nutter, who was given only four days of life. The sadness is shared by M' • •' t.' - . \ ' • . great-grandmother Emma Gray of Lilymoor and grand­ parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Anderson of Lakemoor. Without realizing the tragedy facing Amanda, a happy bir­ thday had been wished for her in last week's column. May God's peace again give comfort in this time of sorrow. A LESSON A red line around his wrist is all David McCatdley had to remind him of the excitement of Thursday, July 19. Dave decided to try on handcuffs belonging to his uncle, and then couldn't find the key to unlock it. The officers at the McHenry police station were un­ derstanding and happy to free Dave. His mother Kathy, was also happy that David hadn't locked himself to anything else, or a house call might have beesL^visit to the hospital in Dixon. The latest proof of the suc­ cess of his method was thia past week, when bees were found in the wall while remodeling theii* bathroom. Anita was very concerned for the children, s* Albert lit a fire cracker and placed it in the wall opening. The loud boom was fatal to the insects. Albert has also used this successful technique, learned in a physics class, on wasp nests. Sure beats setting the house on fire with a torch while trying to smoke out the stinging in­ sects. ., ' BAD LUCK Friday, the thirteenth of July, was not a good day for Anthony Gurske, who was at a camp in western Illinois. He fell and sprained his ankle, which resulted in an emergency room -./.r •" ^ -w* /r*- • - * - • • . • ' ABUNDANT ARACHNOIDEA Looking like creatures from outer space, the harvestmen house exterior**With^their six thread-like angled legs, and two two-inch antennas, they spend their time lazily attached to the siding waiting patiently for a smaller insect to come by. Having no desire for man's blood, they need not move and hide from humans. And if one inadvertently comes into a house, it can be {ricked up by one long leg and peacefully carried outside to freedom. Arachnoidea or harvestmen are better known to us as "daddy long legs", the spiders that are really fun to watch. A tree at sunset whispers love from every branch. GOD BLESS : •- - . . p.

Albert Kunz has his own method of extermination, when these buzzing, biting insects nest in walls. Anthony following walking crutches. was home the day, and is now with the help of Skip'and Mitzi were grateful that their son did not have to have another cast. With the problems this family has had, they are about ready to go into the plaster business. Sore Thing As he was paying his hotel bill, the salesman noticed he had misplaced his suitcase. With only a few minutes left before his plane was due to depart, he asked the bellboy to run to the room and see if the suitcase was there. "Yet sir," was the bell­ boy's reply upon his speedy re­ turn, your suitcase is in your . »» room. The finish line of the sailboat races on Saturday, July 14, might have been the end o£ the race, but was a beginning for Barb Gay and Don Coumbie. As they came across, the finish line first, winning the race, they both got on a pontoon boat driven by George Hartmann, which was holding both of their families and each of, their ministers. As the other sailors finished the race, they too tied up behind the boat ahead of them and joined the gathering crowd on the two other pontoon boats which were all anchored together. Kevin Fitzgerald was playing his guitar and singing softly in harmony to the gentle splashing of waves boats and the wind in the sails t the of the % t 4 /VU )M(.( )/V\EKV \\VL\ N a LIMITED TIME July 26 thru July 28 $ $ 10to all furniture on display.

Child Abuse Law The Illinois General Assembly recently passed a 21- page bill which constitutes a complete rewrite of the state's child abuse statute. Director Gregory Goler of the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) said, "When the law is fully im­ plemented, we should have a modern, effective tool to come to grips with the child abuse problem." The new law, Coler said, includes establishment of regional child protective service units, installation of a toll-free hotline for persons to report suspected child abuse incidents, expansion of the number of persons required to report suspected abuse cases, and authorization for certain DCFS workers to take protective custody of children who are in life-threatening situations because of abuse or neglect.
