GOD BLESS Observation of bike laws urged By Sec. of State Jim Edgar May is National .Bicycle Safety Month. More than 100 million Americans use bicycles for recreation, transportation, physical fitness and to save fuel. Three million bicycles on Illinois roads represent a ratio of one for every two registered passenger cars. If you or your children are bike enthusiasts, observe these laws and safety tips: At night, wear protective or light-colored clothing, or apply reflective tape to your clothing or your bicycle's handlebars, frame or fenders. It will help you to be seen and may keep you from getting hit. Never ride faster than a speed that is reasonable and safe, especially if the pavement is slippery or covered with loose gravel. Keep at least one hand on the handlebars at all times. If you plan to carry books, packages or other items, add a front or rear carrier to your bicycle and drive with both hands on the handlebars. When riding a bicycle, never attach yourself or your bike to any moving vehicle. Watch for people getting in and out of parked cars, and for cars pulling into traffic from a curb or driveway. Turning around on hills or curves is illegal. Do not make a U-turn anywhere without first looking carefully to see if it is safe. U-turns are not permitted on some streets. ^sf6gnfort Wick Homes... 100 Degrees of Energy Efficiency.

BIG WHEELER The quiet of last Saturday afternoon was broken by noise of heavy machinery working on an unknown project. Upon in­ vestigation, Heidi Baakegard, mounted on a bulldozer, was helping members of the Hidden Valley Acres Association clear the roadside of box elder trees, in preparation for widening of Columbus Drive, a street which has long needed improving. When the road is brought up to standard, the association will be eligible for assistance from the Nunda Township Highway Department. The members have all pledged funds to do this basic preparation, showing what community spirit can ac­ complish. AZ VISITORS Alma and Bud Hueckstaedt, who left their old homestead in Lilymoor for Chino Valley, Az. at the first of the year ar&back for a visit, staying witfi oldest son Dutch and his family. There will be two graduations to at­ tend, a family reunion in In­ diana, and catching up on the activities of all their children and grandchildren; plus visiting old friends, even those who don't answer letters! Alma says their first month away seemed strange, being the first time that so many miles jiad separated them from their children. But then the beauty and charm of the Arizona valley and their new home filled the empty spaces, and now they really feel like native Arizonians. After all the hectic activities planned here, Bud and Alma will undoubtedly ap­ preciate the quietness of Chino valley. SALE SUCCESS The first book sale held in the new library building last Saturday found many books finding new homes, plus the added attraction of having a sweet-tooth satisfied with foods from the bake sale. The Friends of the Library, Peggy Glus, Vickie Delp, Mary Stangl and Lorry Deeke had worked many hours setting up tables and book shelves, and putting the books thereon. Also assisting were Marie Stumpf, Chris Glus, Lynn Stangl, with additional help from little ones Rachel Delp and Julie Stangl. All in all, it was a fun venture that took time and effort with the money earned ear-marked for a project for the library which will be identified later.

TEAM The daily toil done by Lilymoor resident Dimitri Peliwan, is resulting in com­ munity improvement rare to see these days. Dimitri, in his one- man crusade to beautify the area near his home, has raked the roadsides, removed rocks and all signs of garbage, trimmed bushes and trees, and is showing the rest of us how lovely the area can look. Those of us fortunate to be Peliwan's neighbors are the main recipients of his work, but any one passing by the area on Glenwood, Route 120 and Lily Lake Road can see the results of his handiwork. The Carrions, too, have been busy clearing vacant property next to their home. HEARTACHE Barry Lee Baker, third son of Margaret Ruth and Herbert Baker, succumbed to a serious illness Sunday May 20, in the ICU at McHenry Hospital. He had been staying at his mother's home for the past week as he had not been feeling well. Mag Dunnagan was with Marge when the rescue squad was called. Barry's death came not quite three years after his brother Brian was killed in a hot air balloon accident. So much pain and loss to be borne. We sorrow deeply with Marge, Herb, Herb Jr., Lynn and all their families. GOD BLESS MEMORIAL FASHION DRESS-UPS FOR WOMEN. SPORTY SEPARATES FOR MEN AND KIDS.
