KOTALIK STUDIO PHOTO Midwest Carriage club held a picnic and outing at the farm of Charles F. Detrick, 2310 Crystal Lake road, McHenry. A group of approximately twenty members, the newly formed club met at the Royal Oaks - farm on Sunday, July 20, at 1 p.m. With relatives of the mem­ bers accompanying them, the Detricks hosted nearly fifty people from Illinois, Wisconsin, O r r ? * r » f h o private outing. The organiza­ tion is designed for collectors, restorers iifid drivers of horse- drawn vehicles. After their picnic, the mem­ bers drove their carriages over the trails of their host's farm. Some of the guests brought only their horses and, used one of the vehicles from'Detrick's col­ lection. Owning over fifty buggies, carriages and wagons, Detrick has been restoring and collec­ ting for six years. He finds his hobby to be extremely satis­ fying. "When I take an old,torn up vehicle and restore it to its original condition, I feel Name Officers For Fellowship Of City Church The organizational neetingof the Methodist Youth Fellowship was reasonably well represent­ ed in each age group. A color fm strip "The Cookies Weren't That Good," was a discussion starter and some of the ideas which came through were: 1. The youth Council will function as the deciding group for all activities by and for' young people, seventh-twel grades. 2. Activities should be gear­ ed to be worth the time and ef­ fort of everyone. 3. Officers were selected to represent each group on the council: Presidents, 11/12, Donna Weichman; 9/10, Amy Leighty; and 7/8, Scott Fain; Representatives , 11/12, Del ^Gerstad and Donna Virgens; 9/10, Mike Snrth and Bob Wick- enkamp; and 7/8, Gary Swan- jion suid Laurie Swanson. v Other offices selected to work in each group: 11/12, vice- president, Fred Dolby; sec­ retary, Sara Richards; 9/10, Vice-president, Kevin Doran; secretary, Mary Williams; 7/8, vice-president, Carol Leighty; and secretary, Laura Dolby. Mrs. Tonyan Is Honored By FamilyNJprty Celebrating h&\ 90th birth­ day, Elizabeth Tonjran, 312 West Bay road, McHenry, had mem­ bers of her immediate family «u tier . nome lor an outdoor cookout Sunday, July 20. Since Mrs. Tonyan had ten children who had an average of four i children, who in turn had an average of four children, the immediate family consists of ninety individuals, sixty-eight of whom came to the birthday party. Although the exact date of her birth is July 22, Sun­ day was chosen to allow this crowd of relatives to gather without losing working time. Born at 2420 W. Johnsburg road, McHenry, on July 22, 1879, Mrs. Tonyan has spent most of her life within the Mc­ Henry area. Her parents, Will­ iam and Adaline Althoff, gave her away as a bride to Henry Tonyan on Jan. 18, 1899. Until 1902, Mrs. Tonyan spent her married life "In a field somewhere near Ringwood." Then, she and her husband and their first two sons moved to a farm directly across the road from her present residence. Shortly afer her husband died in 1925, she moved to 312 West Bay road, and except for oc­ casional trips with her chil­ dren and grandchildren, has remained there. To keep active, Mrs. Tonyan does housework, works in the garden, feeds birds and goes on shopping expeditions. She will cook a German-style meal for anyone who comes withinamile of her kitchen. Although some of the Tqn- yans have moved to Arizona, Washington, New Jersey and Florida, most of the family is within calling distance of Mrs. Tonyan. She regularly receives visits from her descendants. To celebrate the exact date of e ' her birth, her children took Mrs. Tonyan out for dinner on July 22. DCIETY that Pve really accomplished,^ something." As most restoreres do, Det­ rick searches old catalogs and listings to find the original descriptions of the vehicles. He carries his restoringto such details as pin stripping, paint shade and upholstery. The cost and time involved with restoring vary. Detrick has spent two weeks on one buggy, ' and an entire winter on a car- rVol m»v V»»" ?> vehicle for under $100. How­ ever, one man paid $20,000 for a carriage, Detrick's own collection fea­ tures a Connestoga wagon, which may be as old as 200 years, and a station bus built by a carriage factory in Wis­ consin which now is a car dealership. Some of the collection will be traded for other vehicles. Detrick is constantly on the look-out for pood carriage buys. Doing most of his trading from his home at 5508 Oak Center Drive, Oak Lawn, Detrick has received vehicles from as far away as Florida. 1 At the meeting, Dexrick ex­ pected some of the Midwest Carriage club members to dress in the clothes from their vehicles' periods. The cds- tumes are appropriate, Detrick felt, because, "Our aim is to revive the days when carriages were the only means of trans­ portation." PLAEi,-PASHION REVUE -- General chairman ElajW Justen and Co-chairman Dorothy Koleno are shown studying plans for the thirty-second annual fall fashion revuo sponsored by St. Mary's PLAINL^ALER PHOTO Home and School association. The much antici­ pated event will be held Wednesday, Aug. 13, at 12:30 p.m. at the V.F.W. clubhouse, Mc­ Henry, featuring a salad luncheon. Poet 's Corner After reading in the McHenry Plaindealer the story of two children who ran away from home recently, sixteen-year- old Pamela Hodges of Tinley Park wrote the following poem. Pamela's family has long provided a home for foster children, which makes her thoughts particularly interesting. THOUGHTS I was walking through the streets the other day, When I thought about running away. Not just to any place Pd run away, But Pd run far, far away. I thought about school, the kids and all, And how Pd start school again in the fall. I thought about all the fun Pd had, Trying to make one person happy, instead of sad.

I thought about all the love that was there, And almost thought there was too much to bear. And then I thought about other kids, Not as fortunate as me, and that gave me fits, To have people who didn't care for them, Not like, my people, no not them. I thought about running away again, And changed my mind again and again. I still don't know, to this day, What really made me stay. Maybe it was the thought deep inside of me, That it would one day, happen to me -- That I would ma#ry and have children some day, And that they would one day think of running away. And they would come to me, And ask for help from me. That's when I'd be able to say, < "I never ran awav." % PERSONALS | Mr. and Mrs. William Klap- perich, Mrs. Ben A.
