Back row: Ed EARL WALSH Mona said she had a surprise for us. She sure did! As we sat down in a Green Pearl booth, she bounced up with her own Sox Mug for us to sip our ice water. Water never tasted so good. Can't get much going with the Cub fans these days. Neither Chicago team is kicking up any sparks. Something will have to change. Marine-Festival Day must have set a record this year. There were people and cars all over the place. Give the weatherman a thank you. He gave us a perfect day. The Chamber of Commerce, with a big boost from the City deserves a big hand. They work very hard to promote McHenry. You will see in Jerry Miller's report that Hettermann's again won the 16 inch softball tour­ nament held the past weekend at the V.F.W. As the original "Shooty" Thelen used to say those guys "smash the ball." Jerry tellis us that 10-year old Jeff Meyers,"^on of Mr. and Mrs. Si Meyers, was the field announcer-better than Harry Caray. The surprise team in the tournament was the "Kid" team sponsored by the John­ sburg Businessmen. Somewhat younger than the old pros, this group won third place.

Something to lead us on and on - Giving us strength each day. When age comes on as it surely will. What have we got to say? Can we face it and still have courage? Can we give of ourselves each day? I like to think as I count the years - I have given the best of my life. I like to think as I face my age - I have met head on the strife. The friends I've made, such true, true, friends - They love me as I was meant to be. I gave myself, I shared myself. As age comes on, so you shall see The "Padre" Time is our consciousness of the succession of ideas in our mind. -P.B. Shelley. jiiiiiiHimiiiiiiiiiriiHiiiiMHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilniiinnniinniniiiiiiHiiHHiiiiiiiiiiiiuiii From Lucille Womack, Las Vegas, Nv: I remember the cara­ van--five families in four Model T Ford Touring cars with only side curtains to protect us from the weather. Each car had been remodeled with seats that turned to beds for the adults. The chil­ dren slept in tents. We left Mich­ igan on Route 30, Lincoln High­ way. Each car had a wide red plaid ribbon tacked on the back of it. This was so no one would get lost when we went through large cities. In Iowa the roads were only wagon tracks and rain left the roads almost impossible to travel. I remember our journey through Wyoming. We had to cross a summit of 8835 feet be­ fore we reached Laramie. Every­ one had to help push the cars one at a time and put stones in back of the wheels as we climbed the steep grades. Then we passed through Utah an on to the Mid­ land Trail through Nevada. Back then there were no roads for crossing the desert -- you had to pick a point of opening in the mountains and head for it. It took us 23 days to go from De­ troit, Michigan to Bishop, Cali­ fornia in 1923. (Sond contributions to this column to TK« Old Timor, Box 639, Frankfort, Ky. 40601.)
