Musin' & Meanderin (Continued from page 1) was exercising his great faculty ifor pertinent imagination which focused so strongly on the truth. Pondering on the observations of the business man and Mr. Twain brings to mind the indisputable fact that the city and the local newspaper seem to have a mutual influence. A good city helps to make a good newspaper, and conversely, a good local paper helps to build a better community. It is our intention to continue, to the best of our ability, to supply readers with a quantity and quality of news they have a right to expect in their home town newspaper. To be 100 per cent successful requires an equal effort (xi the part of the business community! After driving through Johnsburg several times this Spring and viewing the handmade work of Clarence Smith, we feel compelled, once again, to make note of the tremendous accomplishment of this man. For years we have felt admiration for the talent expressed in the woodwork of this sightless artisan. This year, in addition to his regular items, Smith is displaying new, decorative pieces which would give extreme pride to one who was able to see as he pursued his trade. The pride experienced by this lifetime resident of the community must certainly be doubled. • Friends and merely acquaintances learned with regret of the passing of George Stock this week. Until three years ago, he was a familiar sight as he drove the postal truck about the community, making deliveries of packages and special deliveries. His was pleasant work, for more often than not his appearance brought a smile from the lady of the house or the business man anticipating the arrival of "something special*'. Few have .carried on a ^ longer career -- forty-two years -- in one employment . and few have served the public so faithfully. Whispering Oaks residents -- at least some of them -- have found their quiet retirement community invaded by youngsters. At least twice in the past ten days, tulips have been ripped from one small flower garden on Hanley street and strewn about. From one tired gardener to another, won't you parents please make note of the whereabouts of your youngsters after 10 (/clock at night? This is the plea of the lady who called in our office this week to make her complaint. Cub Scouts of Troop 162 deserve a kind word for taking considerable time on Mother's Day to visit the Woodstock Residence. They talked with the patients and performed numerous tasks to assist them, . KAF MFT ALLOCATION Illinois counties have been allocated $1,628,070 for townships and road districts of motor fuel tax paid into the state treasury during April, Public Works Director William F. Cellini has announced. McHenry county is listed for $15,459. Pam McHardy Student-To-Star (Continued from page 1) gone so for as to predict that the lovely young lady will become a star. Incidentally, she was recommended for that program by Irv Kupcinet, noted columnist. Pain's work consists of interviewing the many guests in advance and making note of all information so that the interview will run smoothly. She assists Eigen with the interviews when the occasion arises and reads mail on the air. In one week's time, she interviewed such celebrities as Zsa Zsa Gabor, Don Charrey, Dorothy Collins, Art Linkletter, Forest Tucker, Mel Torme and many others. Miss McHardy has also conducted her own weekly talk show on Station WKRS for two years. The young graduate-to-be is an accomplished singer, her talents running the gamut from pop songs to coloratura ariq^. She is receiving her degree in three and one-half years. With possible TV commercials and television series in the offing, it is safe to predict that for this young McHenry girl there is a star in her future. for MEN When selecting a gift for him. ... let us help! A gaslight turns people on. Want to see the faces light up at your next cookout or patio party? Install an elegant new gaslight.
