"I will try to interpret the meaning of the three bones and how they relate to each of us. "The wishbone provides the purpose for our lives. I'm sure all of you have broken a wish­ bone with someone else and hoped you would obtain the largest segment. When making a wish we always have in our minds something that is dif­ ficult to acquire-as we know just wishing won't make it come true.

Apparently when we broke our high school wishbone some of us received the short end. Approximately 17 percent of our class members dropped out before graduation. "Those of us who ard here tonight, in addition to securing the large piece of the wishbone, have learned to use the jawbone well. We have reached our goal which we set as fresh­ men - Graduation. But we have done so only with the help of many special people who should be acknowledged at this time. "First, I would like to thank our parents for the love and care they have given us, and for all the little things they have done which we take for gran­ ted. Our parents have protected, excused, and have tolerated our many moods and frustrations -- after all, growing 'up is not-easy, and they deserve an immense amount of credit for their assistance ar.d en­ couragement in making our accomplishments possible. "Next, I would like to thank the faculty and administration for their help in trying to mold us into mature and responsible adults. They have done their best in preparing us for the complicated, often depressing world of which we are inescapably a part. Today's world provides an immediate challenge, and now as young adults we have to make our own decisions, thus assuming the responsibilities and accepting the consequences of our ac­ tions. "Finally, we should thank each other for the support, advice, and friendships that have made the last four years both memorable and profitable. "Upon graduating we will also be seeking a new way of life. Graduation is no longer a goal, but a reality. By this point in our lives we have set new goals. "The wishbone and jawbone are but skeletons without the most important bone of all -- the Backbone. In the human body the backbone gives support. It does the same in life, for the Backbone is the determination, spirit, and enthusiasm which enables us to reach our goals. "If we set these goals high enough and keep working toward them, success will be ours. Though we may en­ counter obstacles along the way, they should serve only to make us all the more anxious to succeed. "In conclusion, I would like to specifically address my fellow classmates. In a few moments, we will receive our diplomas. These diplomas signify that we have used the qualities of the three bones to advantage. The Wishbone for Hope, the Jawbone for Help, and the Backbone for Perseverance. Let us not forget these qualities, but continue to use them throughout life to obtain a serene and lasting joy. I wish all of you the happiness you deserve by tackling and overcoming obstacles, from getting to where you want to be, by virtue of your productive ability and dogged deter­ mination. "We, the members of the graduating class of 1975, are the Future unfolding. May this unfolding bring us happiness, but let us never forget that happiness comes only to those proof, Water proof Covering in America ""EOT * for Homemakers, Housewives, Do-lt-Yourselfers, Campers.

THREE INJURED IN TWO McHENRY AUTO ACCIDENTS (Continued from page 1) Ms. Wegner said she was driving east on Elm, passing a long line of cars when she isaw a car driven by Dianne L. Savage of 69 Forest, Fox Lake, begin to turn into her path. She tried to avoid impact but was unable to do so. Ms. Savage told police she began to make her turn when she saw a break in traffic and did not see the other auto until it was too late to stop. She was ticketed for failure to yield on turning left. Michael T. Murphy of 1107 Oakleaf drive, McHenry, was cited for failure to yield at an intersection following a collision at the corner of Elm and Front streets Saturday morning. According to the report, the Murphy car turned in front of a car driven by Richard P. Hotz of 1402 S. Lily Lake road, McHenry, and impact took place. Two witnesses said Murphy's car did not have his directional turn signals on prior to the collision. The McHenry Rescue squad was called to the parking lot of the McHenry VFW last Thur­ sday night about midnight when it was reported there had been a motorcycle accident. Deputies arrived and determined that Carl Jensen of 4317 W. Clearview, McHenry, had been turning his motor­ cycle around in the parking lot when his passenger, Constance Lewis of Round Lake, lost her balance and fell from the 'cycle. Her fall caused the driver to lose his balance and the motorcycle fell on top of the girl. She was taken to McHenry hospital by the rescue squad for treatment of minor injuries to her arm and leg. STATE LOOKS FAVORABLY ON DISPOSAL SITE (.Continued from page 1) Hodges. It asks reclassification of property currently zoned "F" farming to conditional use permit to allow the repair of small displacement internal combustion engines and the pieces of small equipment these engines operate and for the sale of parts and supplies for the repair, maintenance and operation of them. The property contains 2.28 acres located about three-quarters of a mile northwest of the in­ tersection of Rt. 31 and Mc- Cullom Lake road. Skinner's vote for denial was because the business had received a red tag, whicb denotes a violation of the county ordinance that applies to particular business operations. It was pointed out that the petitioners were unaware of the violation and actually wanted proper zoning to conduct the business under the ordinance. Huemann said if the denial is made because of the red tag violation, there will be many denials in the future. Member Edward Buss, also of McHenry, stated his opinion that this should be a "B-3" BANK N0TE$ BY DONALD DALEY PRESIDENT FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF McHENRY PLAYING CARD MONEY Playing cards ( the 52 card deck of 4 suits ) were said to have originated in France around 1550 and by 1600 card playing was very popular with all French­ men. France had settled Canada in 1604 and for sixty years tried, with varying suc­ cess, to have her New World possessions oper­ ated by privately chartered companies. However, by 1665, wary of renewed ag­ gression by the British to the south, the French royal government sent over large contingents of soldiers to defend its' settlements. In 1685, when funds from France for payment to the troops had repeatedly failed to arrive, and as the soldiers constituted the basic consumer economy, pressure was mounting and some means to issue notes or "promises to pay" had to be devised. The Royal Governor, Jacques de Me- ulles, had a "brainstorm" ....he confiscated all avail­ able decks of playing cards ( they were abundant because French soldiers were inveterate cardplay- ers) and at the same time requisitioned more. The cards were cut into quart­ ers, marked in three dif­ ferent denominations, sta­ mped with the Seal of the Treasurer and signed by the Governor. He then post­ ed a proclamation making acceptance mandatory..... anyone not accepting this "playing card money" for full value was subject to fines. Later, larger den­ ominations were added by using whole cards and half cards. Surprisingly, this money substitute, innovative to say the least, worked suc­ cessfully for seventy-five years until Quebec fell to the British in 1759. As to card playing ... some historians have wri­ tten that an all-night card game had a crucial bear­ ing on the ultimate out­ come of the Revolutionary War. When Washington cr­ ossed the Delaware on December 26, 1776. Co­ lonel Johann Rail (Hessian) Commander of British troops at Trenton, was so absorbed in a game of cards, he ignored a dis­ patch warning of the im­ pending attack . . . with the advantage of surprise, General Washington met only token resistence and gained the critical victory.

Jones read a letter from the city of McHenry in reference to this particular zoning and areas where problems might arise. When Buss promised to check with the city of McHenry regarding its position on the matter, Skinner withdrew his motion and asked for further study. The matter of red tag violation also was noted in a report of the Health & Agriculture committee in regard to Earl Duffy of 4910 Briarwood, Crystal Lake. He was red tagged by the Building and Zoning department for "conducting septic business in residential area in violation of zoning; also for an un­ derground gas tank". It was disclosed that Duffy keeps no equipment on the property, but had been red tagged because he has a business phone in the yellow pages. The Health & Agriculture committee had considerable discussion, during which members questioned whether or not painters, contractors, and veterinarians would also be red tagged for similar violations. Lakeland Construction Co., Inc., of McHenry was awarded the low basic bid of $186,519.99 for the special assessment project to improve roads in Silver Lake Oakwood Hills, Unit I. A letter from John H. An­ derson, president of the Mineral Springs-Clement L o d g e I m p r o v e m e n t association, McHenry, advised that residents of that area voted not to accept the estimates offered by the committee. The reason was given that they felt they could not afford what was proposed. The estimate was $38 to $42 per frontage foot. Some concern was expressed over the responsibility for damage to property as a result of balloon races announced by the Health & Agriculture committee. They are scheduled to be held in Crystal Lake on Flag day, June 14. Charles "Chuck" Weingart of McHenry asked what insurance there was against damage to cows or to land. Member Marx Jones of Crystal Lake said the Crystal Lake Chamber of Commerce has $l'/2 million worth of in­ surance. However, George Starr, also a board member, reminded that this insurance is only of benefit to the sponsors, and complaints from farm owners would necessitate their assuming the cost of bringing legal suit for damages. In conclusion, the Rev. Jones said he was sure the proper C. of C. committee would make further study before the races. A resolution was passed, asking permission of the Cir­ cuit court of the 19th Judicial circuit for an order authorizing the demolition or repair of the building and removal of trash, refuse and garbage on the McCullom property where the Worldwide Fireworks company explosion took place. Approval was given ac­ ceptance of the low bid of $4,185 of Maginnis Ford, Harvard, to purchase a van for the Animal Control center. Monthly receipts to the county treasurer were listed by the McHenry County Depart­ ment of Building and Zoning as $15,186.89. This included building permits, zoning petitions, motel licenses and ordinance books. The allotment to McHenry township and road district of Motor Fuel tax was announced at $2,299.53 for 74.18 miles or roads for the month of April. DAN FRY LEAVES FOR AFS SUMMER IN AUSTRALIA (Continued from page 1) lavoratories, lounge, dining room, kitchen and a front and back veranda. The Wannans must go to Moree, which is 60 miles away, for all their supplies. It is a city of 10,000 people, having seven doctors, two dentists and several accountants. This sixty-mile track is on good roads which are well cared for. It would be difficult to describe a typical day except that it is related mostly to the stock, their feed and water needs such things as dipping, shearing, branding, etc. Because most young people must be away at school, few have the opportunity to ex­ perience ranch life which Dan will observe and learn about. He is informed that few homes are heated in this part of Australia. Though it is quite cool in the winter, the folks merely dress warmly even indoors rather than use fur­ naces, and are comfortably accustomed to this arrangement. Dan will arrive in their mid-winter but they do not have snow. The family has had what they call bulk elec­ tricity since 1964. Prior to this they had their own electric light plant with a kerosene-operated refrigerator. In 1963 they ob­ tained telephone service and in 1973, direct dialing to all parts of Australia. All his life, Dan has had a special love for animals and is enthused about the opportunity offered him by AFS. New species to him will be the many koala bears and kangaroos. Kangaroos are considered pests where wheat is con­ cerned. Dan expects to find out, first hand, what kangaroo boxing matches are really like.

When county deputies in­ vestigated the report that a stripped auto had been aban­ doned on a dirt road at the McHenry State park, 914 S. River road, McHenry, they found the auto had been stolen from Kane county May 25. The vehicle, owned by Michael Edward of 141 Howard, Dun­ dee, had been stripped of its engine, transmission, radio and tires. Joseph Stanek of 1316 Millstream drive, McHenry, reported to county deputies that his auto was stolen from the parking lot of the American Legion home, 2025 N. Ringwood road, last Thursday night about 10:45. McHenry police responded and almost im­ mediately found the vehicle in a field behind the I^egion home, where it had appareantly been pushed from the lot as there was no sign of ignition tam­ pering. Other than a small dent to the right front fender, the car was undamaged and nothing was missing inside.

The vacant home of Vito Damore, a Mundelein resident, at 4019 Mill road, Solon Mills, had fourteen windows of the home broken by use of stones. The vandalism occurred sometime Saturday night or early Sunday morning. MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) suggesting human interest stories. An-adult friend of "young Kelly Olonso, River Terrace drive, was so impressed that she wrote to tell us how Kelly faithfully brought food and water to a duck that was hat­ ching ten eggs. Unfortunately, by the time we reached Kelly by phone, the small ducks were out of their shells and on their own. We're sure there are many other youngsters just like Kelly who are showing their concern for the creatures around them that are so dependent. No one can convince us this isn't good training at any age. K.A.F. 114 GRADUATE AT MARIAN HIGH SCHOOL (Continued from page 1) He spoke of the need for the country to take an optimistic view for the future.
