Lakemoor Margaret. as Lilymoor 385-4934 Association Is Dissolved The special meeting of the Lilymoor association, called by president, Jerry Weber Dec. 19, was attended by a crowd of five people. Due to the lack of interest and support, the officers have resigned, but Sherill Weber will . remain treasurer, until the out­ standing bills are paid. Twenty-five members have not paid, 1979 dues. These people made a commitment to pay for the garbagf pickup, snow plowing/^general road care and lighting, and money was budgeted for the services received. From now on, garbage pickup will be billed in­ dividually by the company, and snow plowing and road care will be each resident's personal problem. Perhaps next year, Lilymoorites will realize the necessity of community action, and a rebirth of the association may result. It's been a thankless job for Jerry and Sherill Weber and Carolyn Rasmussen whoi tried to improve the com­ munity in which they live. FIRE COMPANY NO. 3 The local fire department received monetary help from donations by area businesses and residents, for additional equipment not supplied through tax money. Bob's Auto Body shop received a new scanner, and Frank Friesl, Ruth Freeman, Karen Douglass and Sherida Dawdy all had additional Christmas time presents. The volunteer firemen appreciated the com­ munity's help, and the community is appreciative of the work of these dedicated men. SOUTHERN TRIP T h e C o n c e s s i o n a i r e Convention was the excuse for a nine-day vacation enjoyed by Joe and Tom Yerkes and sons Andre and Gary. The Yerkes' managed a go-cart enterprise last summer, so were able to join other members of the en­ tertainment community for a three-day convention held in New Orleans. One of the fascinating places they visited was the old mausoleum where bodies a/re "buried" in above-n ground tombs. Surprising' were the buildings in New Orleans; many were only, about eight feet wide but thirty to forty feet deep. They enjoyed dinn«; on the twenty-second floor\of a hotel, where the view exciting \Joe wished Jthey had mc/re Vne to sp^nd in New Onleans asjtw^such a variejrand colonul city. L a k e P n c h a r t r a i n Causeway gave a panoramic view of Louisiana, taking thirty-five minutes to drive over twenty-four miles of water. Then.cn to the coastal drive through Mississippi and Alabama. The results of hurricane Frederick were still very much visible. West of Mobile, the travelers spoke " with an elderly couple who had a gift shop, and felt fortunate to lose only the roof of the store which swas blown forty feet away. Broken" trees, roads and destroyed buildings were seen everywhere. Joe and Toni did have one kind experience which was the result offlFrederick. They were able to camp on the shore of the gulf of Mexico, on a slab of cement that was all that remained of someone's house. It was .strange to park a camper where someone's living room had been. Then on to Pensacola, Fla., where the boys went swimming in the Gulf. Toni and Joe weren't quite ready to share that chilling -ex­ perience. After about 2,500 miles of driving, with good weather, no gas problems, the Yerkes were home for Christmas. Memories of acres of white i cotton fields, trees covered with hanging mosses, southern mansions, and the waters of- southern states, will be. recalled with great pleasure in years to come. THE LITTLE STORE Ruth Mormon, of the Little Store, had need of the ex­ cellent, rapid care of the Rescue sauad. She was taken to the hospital when a breathing problem develped and thankfully, is feeling well now.---- -------- The Little Store is adding another service to the community. Dry cleaning can now be dropped off, with pickup on Mondays. The cost of driving thesp days makes this a real help to us. It's good to have a little store close by. COMMUNITY LOSS^ Robert Hurley, a ten year resident of our area, died at Veteran's hospital Dec. 9. Bob had a history of heart problems, having had several surgeries, including an "open heart" last year. Lee, his devoted wife, daughter Gerrie, (Mrs. Jimmie) Witz, two other children, three foster children, seventeen grand­ children. and seven great a.c*vV •" \o* ' \o grandchildren, bear the most pain caused by his ^death. Funeral services were held in Waukegan and Tomah, Wis., where he was buried. Bob had been commander of. the V.F.W. post in Wisconsin, and his last years of work were at the Great Lakes Naval station. He had been helpful to the Lily Lake, Conservation club as membership chairman, until his health prevented further participation. Our last contact with Bob was when he and Lee. helped with-the Ll.C.C I.'s fund raising rummage sale last summer. Deepest sympathy is extended to his family.

GOD BLESS For Food Stomp Aid Adult Education , Adult education has been defined as a strenuous effort to learn about things that bored you when you were still young enough to profit from them. / Elderly and disabled people would be able to - apply for food stamps at the same time they apply for Supplemental Security benefits (SSI) under rules ^ proposed recently by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.' The new rule would make it)possible for the Social Security administration, which .administers SSI benefits, to also accept food stamp applications. People applying for SSI would be able to apply for food stamps simultaneously if everyone in'the household is applying for or$eceiving SSI benefits, and no one is already receiving food stamps. Thte proposed rule, which implements a provision of the 1977 Food Stamp Act, could take effect as soon as next summer. ', Currently, SSI recipients who want to apply for food stamps must make a separate trip to their local food stamp office. "This has placed a real .burden on people who are elderly or disabled", said Assistant Secretary Carol Tucker Foreman. "It may also be a reason why many elderly and disabled poor do not currently participate in the food stamp , program. Processing food stamps and SSI application^ jointly should be of real assistance to these people.*' . Mooee Cuttings > .Moose have oftentimes been spotted using their antlers to. cut grass. They drop to their knees, swing .their antlers to cut grass which they in turn munch on for feeding purposes. Black and White Statistics show that only seven per cent of the white babies born out of wedlock in this country are kept by their nat­ ural mothers. But 90 per cent of the black babies born to un­ married mothers are kept by their families. ~ U % __ M\m* Sm On Film Diftloplng ami Printing 12'ia.Prmt PI usDavalopi ng 12 *20 Exp.
