Hughes of McHenry has been included in the second annual edition of the National Dean's List, the largest recognition publication honoring college students, published by E d u c a t i o n a l C o m ­ munications, Inc., Nor- thbrook.

Reserve Entry For '78-79 Feed Grains Jim * Lucas, county executive director of the M c H e n r y C o u n t y Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation service, says 1978 and 1979 crops of feed grains are eligible for immediate entry into the farmer-owned grain reserve. The ^announcement means 1978-crop corn, sorghum and oats currently under Commodity Credit cor­ poration loan, and all 1979- crop corn, eligible for loan, may be placed in the reserve immediately. Currently, about 145,080 bushels of 1978 feed grains are under loan and eligible for reserve entry in McHenry county, Lucas said.

The new library will be at this location when funding is arranged inasmuch as it has outgrown the present rental facility on Lily Lake road and Columbus drive. Long range goals will be discussed at the next meeting of the board Dec. 6 at the library. Susan La Croix Brindise, former president of the library board, is interested in starting a "Friends of the Library" group. Persons who are interested should contact Susan. Volunteers can be helpful in the library, and will definitely be needed to assist the board with the building program. Reading is still the basis of knowledge. To help the children, teenagers, family groups and older persons, to a better, fuller existence, is the purpose of your library. Do you want to help others, and grow yourself? You are needed! DREDGE WINTERIZED The Lily Lake dredge, also known as the Baby Blue Barge, has been pulled out of the lake and retired for this year. Jerry Weber and Dale Rasmussen were respon­ sible for the removal. Other members of the L.L.C.C.I. assisted, and with the donation of equipment and manpower from Mr. Miller, the dredge was removed from the partially frozen lake. During last weekend's high winds, the dredge had blown away from its mooring at Fritzsche beach, and was resting in front of Mildred Rowe's home. Mildred was surprised to see the addition to her view, and was hopeful it would be removed before the ice cometh. The Lily Lake con­ servation Club, Inc. has received happy news of a less | costly insurance program for 1980. Fund raising activities are con­ tinuing. Peggy and Bill at the Bungalow have added to the dredging fund. All help is appreciated. For more in­ formation call 385-8263.

In order for the subdivision association to exist, residents will have to budget for a hundred dollar donation a year. In view of the lack of cooperation, the association is in danger of being disbanded, as Jerry will no longer accept the responsibility of presidency. This will mean: plow your own streets; fix your own potholes; dispose of your own garbage (not in empty lots, please); and do this in darkness, as the street lights were pad for by association members. These were some of the services provided by the association, at a cost lower than surrounding areas pay for garbage pickup alone. Lilymoorites won't work together for their own benefit? Unbelievable! CONGRATULATIONS _ Tricia Goebel is among the SECTION 2- students listed in the new "Who's Who" among high school students. Another honor for the bright at­ tractive daughter of Lilyann and Brian Baker.

SAD AND HAPPY TIME The past weeks have seen the sadness of the moving of my sister Mary, and her husband John, to Colorado, and then the happiness of a visit from my other sister, Katherine, and her husband Herb, from Florida. Among the things we gave thanks for was being able to share our joys and sorrows with a loving family. Let your love show. GOD BLESS in a secret room Built in their house, thereby aiding them in their escape from the Nazis. As a result of a raid by soldiers, Corrie's family was taken prisoner and Corrie was sent to the dreaded concentration camp, "Ravensbruck." The Hiding Place portrays the de-humanizing agonies of a concentration camp...- the personal confusion and conflicts of both victors and vanquished...the con­ frontation of military might and gentle ministry.. .and the costs of caring for others. Millions of readers have cried, suffered and trium­ phed with Corrie ten Boom and her family through the book, The Hiding Place. Now a motion picture captures all the power, excitement and sheer dramatic force that sets this story apart from others. No Friends "I'm sorry but I can't cash this check unless you have some friends in camp," the recruit was told. "I haven't met man\ yet," was the reply, "I'm the camp's bugler.
