The big news of July was celebration of the city's 121V1 h anniversary, a week marked by observances of various kinds and a pageant depicting highlights of the different periods of its history. It was at this time that the city became possessor of its first flag, an attractive orange and black banner bearing the words "City Of Progress". While July brought a state winner to McHenry in the person of Patricia. Hogan as dairy princess, August found the Viscounts drum, and bugle corps named state winners in Sons of the Legion competition, and later national champs. Expand Defense Program Impetus was given the ci\il defense program in September, when the city became the second in the county to win accreditation for its expanded program. Q Schools - at least some of them - showed evidence of "bulging at the seams" with an enrollment of 4,535 pupils in public and parochial schoo". districts of McHenry, an increase of about 2,000 over five yonrs previous. Another good sized industry ,'ame to McHenry with the opening of a branch of Anderson Controls, Inc., in the old Admiral building.

December brought to the city its first Christmas parade, a line- of march which brought out 4,000 kiddies and their par ents out to watch ihe arrha! of Santa. The year ended with a prom ise for continued activity in the twelve months ahead.

ATTEND CONFERENCE Rick Ferris of McHenry and Walter Schultz of Spring drove were local representatives included about those from 290 Illinois chapters of the Future Farmers of America attending the third annual F.F.A.-Farm Bureau con ference at Illinois State Normal university last week. The F.F.A. members studied the basic principles which influence the growth of America and saw these principles al work at businesses in Bloomington and Normal.

The moments which seemed darkest then provide a chuckle now, but in childhood the world flight as well have come to an end. Most of us who are able to keep up with this fast moving pace of 1962 without the assistance of a psychiatrist feel that more than anything else, the years of experience which have intervened since childhood have made us better able to smile at those changing tragedies which confront each stage of life. A warning to motorists ir. the form of a huge sign resting against a smashed car was placed, on Rt. 31, south of the city, by the McHenry Journeymen. It read "This Was Holiday Rush, Slow Down, Stay Alive". Unfort unately, the short work week prevented us from having the photo reproduced for this week's issue. The holiday season is onl.s a memory, but it must be a very pleasant one for the many patients in hospitals and resi dents of special homes who were remembered by kindhearted folks. Several groups gave of their time to sing carols at the Ideal hospital, while Girl Scout and Brownie troops made tray favors. When bad roads resulted in numerous accidents, a call to Candystripors brought out eleven volutv leers to assist. The only reward for folks like this -- and the mam others who shared their hoiiday spirit in service to others-- was that wonderful feeling that only comes with giving. K. A. F.
