MASHER, Editor »d Manager • Another Birthday • Another birthday! Yds, it's true,- •friends, and this year there are fifty- Btne candles on the cake for the McHenry Flaindealer is celebrating fifty- nine years of service in this community this week. • . Although fifty-nine years should . mean that the prime of life has been reached, yet we begin to feel sometfiat old, with the last few years of .depressed business taking away some of the former pep and enthusiasm of youth as we enter our sixtieth year Wo hope for the co-operation of the -public in an effort to pull through another trying year. Wben the Plaindealer was launched fifty-nine years ago McHenry was a village of less than a thousand people, but the years which ha"e come and passed have brought a substantial growth in population. Tiiis newspaper was the fourth to ^Jbe launched in the county, its prede- ' .ce&sors being: the Woodstock Sentinel, started in 1866, the Harvard Independent in 1865 and the Marengo Republican in 1867. During the e3rly days the Plaindealer had a small group of subscribes here and in neighboring towns with subscriptions steadily increasing until they are now scattered in many Cities and various states. Many changing events have irtarke<! the passing years from the time when • J. VanSlyke, typical personal journalist, edited the paper, to the present day when depression ia the chief subject of conversation and drouth and frost bring fears of famine and more , |«ird times. Coming into existence just after the 'Repression of 1873, following the Civil war, the Plaindealer has weathered four periods of national depression Memorial J)a^ McHenry citizens are wondering why the day when heeds should te bowed in reverence and respect for the the men who gave their lives for their country should pass without a service of any kind to mark it as different from a gala holiday. Probably for the first time since Civil war days there was no united public observance of Memorial Day in McHenry on Wednesday and the city of McHenry stands almost alone in McHenry county and northern Illinois as being almost the only ,city not observing the day in services of some kind, regardless of how simple they were. # Only three Legionnaires and three] Daughters of the G. A. R. gathered at the city park Wednesday and the services and line of march to Dhe ceme* teries which had been planned were abandoned because of lack of interest. No band, no martial music, no tribute of respect to the dead soldiers, no colors to bring a thrUl of patriotism to young and old were present, although the Daughters of the G. A. R. placed a wreath upon the monument in memory of the Civil w^r veterans. Stores in MJcHenry were open most of the day, people were busy with company or having a good time, no irterest in the meaning of the day was shown by public officials, business men, teachers of our public schools or residents in general. How different from former days when school children marched with older folks, when taps were blown at the cemeteries and a speaker brought a message of patriotism which instilled in the hearts of the children the true meaning of the day.

Glenn addressed the Illinois Bank- ' Bts Association at Springfield last week on "What Lincoln Would Do. He said in p&£t: "Lincoln would say that substantial, lincere and constructive discussion of Eery step in the progress of the adinistration be expressed and that n>> One voicing honest differences of opinion should be assailed as disloyal or Condemned as unpatriotic. . "Lincoln would say that the Constitution of the United States, a product the greatest governmental ability er gathered together in one assembly. the result of high-minded and unselfish patriotism, conceived in crisis, born in emergency, attained and Mrengthene7>})rajj|ph fqr^ign and civil war, had proven itoeif the soundest, yafest, most progressive and humane charter of humah liberty ever drawn fcy the brttfp and"frteeto^d; the Mood of man; and that it should not and must not be destroyed, or impaired, or weakened, or circumscribed finder the cry tlyit another emergency confronts the present day America. - He would say that its beneficent provisions are needed least in serene and prosperous periods of the republic and lost in troublous times of strain and Iress and strife. "Born and reared on a farm, Linjlri would .fully realize the problems the farmer; would use his common ise to solve their difficulties. His it, sound mind would realize that t»o country could improve or enrich . tyself by destroying material wealth Mnd he would approach the agricultural problem with a plan of increasihg consumption and reducing expenses of the middleman, rather than by reducing production. . "Lincoln would never plow under a foot of com, wheat or cotton, or kill a pig and destroy its carcass so long *» a destitute woman in all America reeded a garment or a helpless child was crying for food. • ^Lincoln would feel that the farmer Tiad enough natural enemies to production In the way of floods and droughts, frosts,- chinch bugs, corn borers, grubs and grasshoppers to avoid the necessity for an army of bureaucrats from Washington, loaded with bags of the taxpayers' money, fccouring the country with the high ambition of paying most to the farmers who produce the least. "Lincoln would denounce the NRA es the most dangerous farce ever imposed upon a free people in time of peace and would say to Gen. Johnson: 'General, you are a patriotic, highminded, strenuous American. You have carried on under an unbearable burden. You have earned and shall have a permanent vacation. Goodbye, you have done your part. I give you the Blue Eagle, and don't forget to take him with you when you go.' "Lincoln would join in praising the t-dministration for the greatest accom - plishment of NRA, and about its only one, that of abolishing child labor. At -- the same time his native humor would remind him that this federal law was necessary only in the southern states, ? child labor having been abolished in the northern states by state-law years before the professors ever dreamed of _tte-NBA." % ^ Despite these conditions, however, the cemeteries presented an appearance of veritable flower gardens with many former residents returning to decorate the graves of their loved ones, snd old time friends came for the one <.ay in the year to honor the departed dead- The idea] weather lured motorists from the city and traffic on all highways was heavy.

Cuts Not Several gases not yet Identified have |»en found by astronomers in the atr jwspliswjf «l tbe large* planets. ,• ,; Washington.--A vivid picture'of the dangers and thrills of flying the air mail has been Impressed upon the American public during the past month. This picture Is only ope of a long series illustrating the history of the postal service. "The winter struggle against storm and Ice, driving snow and sub-zero weather is shared alike by the mall pilot aloft, the Alaskan musher with his plodding dog team, and countless carriers on rural routes in western and middle-western states," says a bulletin from the National Geographic society. "In Alaska there is as yet no federal air mall service. Through private enterprise some mall is carried by plane, but the winter service still relies mainly upon dogs and sleds. One of the longest dog mall routes Is the 650-mile run from Kotzbue to Point Barrow--Uncle Sam's northernmost post office. The mail team leaves Point Barrow early In November, as soon as there Is snow enough for travel, and is expected to complete the round trip of 1,300 miles by Christmas. So regular is the arrival of the north-bound Christmas mail' that it rarely disappoints the ^children of Point Barrow. Supply Own Dog ^eam. "On one of the rtiore southerly routes, from Nenana to Idltarod, a distance of about 350 miles, a weekly service is njaintained. For each round trip, requiring 35 days, the pay Is $864. Over 900 pounds of mall^and supplies are carried, so the drive^rf seldom has the luxury of riding., He must, of course, supply his own dog teauj, equipment, and food for. the trip. "Some- of the most* dangerous and difficult routes are much nearer home than the barren lands of Alaska. Records of the Post Office department shows ori?( of the worst to be from Sandusky,-Ohio, td the nearby islands in Lake Erie. Winter storms in this district are severe; and ice conditions singularly treacherous. The best craft for the job is a combination sailboat, rowboat, ice ydcht and sled. When water Is open, or the ice strong and smooth, the sail can be used, but more often progress is discouraging-- dragging slowly over rough ice cakes, or breaking inch by inch through 'young' Ice. "A similar route In Lake Michigan, known *as Death's Door, runs from Ellison bay to Detroit harbor, Wisconsin. Then there is the Id&ho route from Rocky Bar to Atlanta. Carriers there make the winter trips on snow- »hoes, packing 50 pounds of mail 01 "The smooth speed of city delivery. % in sharp contrast to these talea-Of persistent and courageous effort. One of the most efficient systems is New York city's 'blow-gun mail' which handles half the letters received In the metropolis. Beneath the streets of Manhattan are 27 miles of parallel, pneumatic tubes. Through these tubes at Intervals of ten seconds, shoot carriers, each holding 400 letters, and traveling at a rate of SO miles an hour. Til# are propelled by compressed alt. Werftf's Biggest Business. "the United States postiil service todiy U the biggest business In the World, employing ovdr 232,000 workers; but Its purpose has not changed since the pre-revolutlonary days 'when Stagecoach mall took Ibc weeks to go from Boston to Philadelphia. An inspector, reporting on the efficlen- «y of the colonial setvlce at that time, remarked that the public good was ,the sole Inducement for taking mp much trouble as we do.' V "When Benjamin Franklin was made deputy postmaster general of the British colonies In 1753, conditions were promptly improved. Weekly tripe between Philadelphia and Boston were started,'the time was cut In half, and new routes were opened. The postage rate, however, remained high--forty dollars ($40) for three letters from Falmouth, Maine, to Boston ! In 1775 the continental congress appointed Franklin postmaster general of the thirteen American colonlea He had previously franked his letters 'Free. B. Franklin,' but now he changed this to 'B. Free Franklin.' "Through the years following the Revolution the history of the Post followed closely the history of the ^ pioneers. Less than 100 years ago there was still no overland mail to California. The Mormons in Utah had a messenger system of their own, and there were a few 'post offices' like the one at Ash Creek. Neb. This was a trapper?s cabin where letters were left to be carried on by the next traveler who came along. Often letters were stuck In notched sticks beside the trail on the chance that they would be picked up by some one returning eastward. "With the exeltefoent of the great gold rush In 1849 everything moved rapidly, Including the mall. There was soon a regular service, run by Feramorz Little and his wagon train, between Fort Laramie, Wyo., and Salt Lake City. Even as late as 1858, Fort Laramie was Denver's 'nearest post oflice,' and the men who staked out claims near Pike's peak had to send 200 miles ftfr news from home. In 1860 the daring riders of the Pony Express reduced the distance between San Francisco and St Joseph, Mo., to the amazing time of eight days; and nine years later the silver ..spike was driven which coif plet^l the first transcontinental railroad." Voodoo Came to America From Africa, Via Haiti Voodoo came to America from Africa, directly Or Indirectly, by the way of Haiti, says a writer In the Chicago Tribune. In the last named island It flourishes today as the most important of all things in the lives of a considerable proportion of the people of that black republic In the last part of the Eighteenth century thousands of negroes were taken I from West Africa and sold lhUf>^la\4ry In Haiti. Some also during thar period were transported" to Louisiana. They came from Guinea, the Gold Coast, Dahomey, the Congo, and other regions along the African Atlantic coast. They brought to Haiti and America the worship of the serpent, and a hundred and one othcf beliefs In mysterious and frightful gods. The serpent of the African native was the python, and, the tabpreme spirit which spoke through the python god was LI Grand Zombi. In America the rattlesnake became the' serpent god. In 1809, because of the war between France and Spain, a great many Haitian planters who had settled in Cuba with their slaves to avoid the Haitian revolution came to America through the port of New Orleans. What the simple negroes In America lacked in Voodoo rituals they then obtained through this new Influx of slaves. In Haiti Voodoo Is said still to embrace the most disgustitog of pagan rites, the extreme, of which Is hutnafi sacrifice. In remote regions, where the authorities have little or no control, Voodoo priests and priestesses -still on rare occasions put to death the volunteer victim of sacrifice. The case of Cadeus Bellegarde, the cannibalistic murderer, who slew a number of his relatives, is still talked about in HaltL It was only a few years ago. ROMANCE RECALLED WHEN ACTRESS GETS BACK LOST STATUS Former Wife of Lord Sholto Douglas, Playboy, Recov- - : J- '• ers CiftizensiiipbV"."*"'-*. Gypsy Moth Is Peculiar in Reproduction Program The Gipsy Moth is an extremely Interesting Insect Since its introduction into North America in 1868, it has been responsible for the spending of millions of dollars in areas where It developed In outbreak form, according to the Montreal Herald. It feeds on a great variety of foliage, including that of the tree. The female moths lay their eggs in more or less circular masses, in July, usually on the trunk or larger limbs of trees. The eggs remain unhatched until the following May. The young caterpillars hatching therefrom g^nce begin to feed upon the foliage, reaching full growth about mid-summer. When mature they change to pupae which are attached to parts of the plant and enclosed In a flimsy cocoon. The moths emerge about two weeks later and the females, which cannot fly, soon begin to lay their eggs. The male moth is yellowish-brown in color, with darker markings. The fetaale moth is larger. In color' It Is aJjjrtMSf white, with numerous small black markings. , . National Anthem of Scotland What might be. called the National Anthem of Scotland, "Scots Wha Hae" was written by Burns during a period of' excitement caused by a storm. He was riding from Kenmure to Gatehouse- on-Fleet, in Galloway, by a moorland road in a wild, rugged part of that ^district Suddenly the sky became' overcast, the wind moaned acro* <* the desolate waste and rain descend**! In torrents. A thunderstorm of terrific violence broke out Burns enjoyed the dreadful spectacle and amidst the fury of the elements, he took what shelter he could among some rocks, and with paper and pencil, wrote the great poem sung the world over, where Scotsmen are to be found. The air Is a very ancient one. Like so many ancient songs, nobody .knows where it came from originally, but It was sung in 1545 to Montgomery's "Hey, now the day dawns," and even this Is said to be ^n adaptation of an earlier song. It was seized by the Jacobites as a suitable air for their favorite sang, "Here's to the King, Sir." Tin Cardiff Giant The Cardiff giant was a famous Imposture, In the shape of a man, which was disinterred near the village of Cardiff, In Onondaga county. New Yorkj^ In October, 1860. The figure was of gypsum, 10H feet in height and was declared to be a piece of ancient sculpture. Some even held that, rude though it was, it was probably a fossil man of prehistoric times. A persistent skeptic, a doctor who resided near the place of discovery, traced the movements of certain of his neighbors who had been Instrumental In finding and exhibiting the "gi^nt" He learned that the figure had been carved In Chicago from a gypsum block sent there from Iowa for the purpose. This expose ended the marveling at the Cardiff giant, which meanwhile had been profitably exhibited In the principal cities. The ultimate, fate of the figure Is unknown. New York.--A romantic figure of the „mauve decade, a figure that once skipped down the primrose path with a title in one hand and bouquets from Tony Pastor stage door johnnies In the other, walked slowly down the steps of the Federal court in Brooklyn the other day, clutching in hands that were rather worn with her sixty years of life a paper symbol of something she gave up in 1893 when ahe became the wife of the famous' playboy, Lord Sholto George Douglas. * The paper was the certificate of her American citizenship, granted to her by Federal Judge Inch. The name of Lord Sholto Douglas, the son of the Marquis of Queensbury, and the girls h^niarried form one of the glittering chapters In the chronicle of the old tlptes when the gas lights burned In Pastor's and an English title was still something that catised American hearts to flutter. The young lord was known all over the world In those days. He win a soldier of fortune, a remittance man, a miner in Arizona at $2 a day, an actor, and a digger of ditches. Be had been by turns a millionaire and more than once a beggar. "Wonderfully Pretty.1• The woiiiau who walked down the steps, dressed plainly in black and shrinking from notice as ghe leaned upon the arms of a man and a woman accompanying her, was once Loretta Mooney, a fifteen-year-old girl, "wonderfully pretty, with a sweet smile and wavy chestnut hair."' This was the description of her sent to the east from California when Lord Douglas, after cutting a swath in New York that astonished an age accustomed to such escapedes, met her in a mining town, gave her a kiss, and ran off with her. He took his bride out of the Bret Harte gambling hells and the roaring towns, and away they went to seek their happiness in some place that kept them out of the public eye for two years. Two years later, the records say, she popped up in this city at Tony Pastor's theater, much heralded as the lovely bride of the swath cutter from England. The awe-stricken audience, disregarding the dramatic abilities which were first developed by her smiles upon beer buying miners in the halls of the West, took particular note of the heavy gold wedding ring she wore, the sign that she was wedded to the real, live English lord. The lord and lady joined forces some time later and they went to England. Two children were born. In her court papers she said one of them, John Douglas, now thirty-three years old, Is living In Belgium. Won Wide Notoriety. In the meantime Lord Douglas did not stay put very long. He encountered adventures that won him notoriety from coast to coast. He was the victim of a "double," a man who looked like him, took his name and accent married right and left In .1902 he bought a salooo in Spokane and likid he had $50,000 left of his fortune. In 1907 lie sold Jewelry in. Detroit In 1910 he told the press that he had spent $5,000,000. He was through. He took a job with the Canadian Pacific at Spoka&e and earned $2 a day as a laborer. The subsequent fate of Lady Sholto Is obscure. The years are hard to come at in the record. One record says she supported her hasband for some time during the childhood of their boys, and that she finally divorced him in America on the grounds of infidelity, non-support and desertion. Little Is known of the subsequent fate of the woman who has now taken out her citizenship papers. She said ahe renounced her American citizenship in 1895. The lord married a woman with a fortune of $30,000,000. He was divorced four years later. In 1926 he married again, to a wealthy widow, Mrs. Mendelsohn Pickles. 1 RuMiaY Volga The Volga river, famed for Its boatmen, Is as far east as Bagdad; that Is, It Is on a parallel with this city. Astrakhan is the principal city at Ita mouth. The river empties into the Caspian sea, which has no outlet to tha ocean. . Johnson'* Impeachment Trial During the impeachment proceedings of President Johnson in 1868 the chief Justice who presided at the trial was Salmon P. Chase from Ohio. The chairman of the board of Impeachment was the eloquent John A. Bingham of Ohio, one of the foremost members of the house. Among the c'ounsel for the President were Henry Stanberry and William S. Groesbeck, both from Ohio and i9otl) classed among the most eml nent lawyers of the nation. The deciding vote was cast by Senator Benjamin F. Wade of Ohio who, if, fhe President had been convicted, would, as the law declared at that time, have succeeded to the Presidency.

The survey, being conducted by Maj. W. S. Webb, formerly head of the department of archeology at the University of Kentucky and now archeologist for the TV A, already has revealed many Indian mounds and village Sites ranging in age from the late historic to prehistoric times. The findings of the survey, financed by CWA funds, will be turned over to the Smithsonian inst button.
