The " belongs to Toni Yerkes, was put up by husband, Joe, a volunteer fireman. The flag was last seen at 10:30 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 22, when Toni drove up to the oornfest to help clean up after the festivities. After finishing their chores, the Yerkes returned to their home, and saw the flag was no longer there. Toni is greatly saddened by this loss, as this flag draped her father's casket. TYiere were only 48 stars on it, so its value is purely sentimental. She asks for the returfr of the flag because it was a symbol of ner father's contribution to his country.

Being one at the deliverers through Faith Presbyterian church has given me mucn insight into the lives of those who are ill or elderly.

XThe editor states that bicyclists who do not feel bound by the Rules of the n Roed are becoming an ever increasing safety hazards on our streets and roads. I agree with her completely, and, I also feel that something should be done about it. The obvious solution would, of course, be for the police to apprehend offenders regardless of age and to send them to court to be punished It is too bad that this issue is not bis enough for our courts and our politicians, but the lives of our children are important to us, the parents. And right now we are the only ones who can do anything about this dangerous situation. It micht seem harsh to send a child to court for a traffic violation, but isn't it easier than sending them to a hospital or even the cemetery? Wake up, parents! Fight for your children! If you want them alive and well, it is your responsibility to teach them to obey the laws, that the road is no playground, that a bicycle is no match for a car, and that offenders are punished. Let us all work together for the safety of everybody! The last meeting of the Board of Trustees on Sept. 8 was again attended by our intrepid reporter who has become a familiar figure in McHenry Shores during the past months. You will no doubt have read his account of the proceedings in the Friday issue of the McHenry Plaindealer, and I feel it is not necessary for me to duplicate efforts. MOTHERS' MARCH OF DIMES This year's Mothers' March of Dimes is getting on its way, and although the has been marvelous, more marchers are still needed. Remember, we are breaking tradition this year by having the March in the week of Sept. 21, instead of in January. And since we prefer this time of year to the cold of the winter, we have to show better results than ever. Please help us! The lieutenants for McHenry Shores are Jackie Stojonic, Johann Battel, Bonnie Panerali, Chris Sonneckson and Karen Fick. Please call any of them or their captain, Yvonne Alton (344-2909) if you can spare the little time required to be a marching mother (or father or any other relative you decide to be). But if you cannot help us collect, please give generously to this cause. Who could deny the many children born with birth defects the chance to grow up healthy and strong? Remember polio, one of the most feared diseases still a generation ago? I remember that especially the summer months were a always worrying about possible symptoms, always afraid that the chila's tiredness or aching joints were not just simple fatigue or a summer cold but the (keaded crippler of children. The March of Dimes helped in eliminating this terrible worry for us mothers. Let us show how grateful we are, let us try to do the same for birth defects. Let us work hard so that the 15 million Americans who suffer from birth defects now will be cured, and that eventually no pregnant woman will have to worry about bringing an imperfect child into this world. This is our goal! We need your help to achieve it!
