That was the kind of weather the Brad Scotts and Art Christophers enjoyed in Baton Rouge and New Orleans with flowers in bloom everywhere. They attended the American Hereford ROM show in Baton Rouge where Northern Pump farms had entries and then traveled on to New Orleans where they did a lot of sight­ seeing. Friday evening, they enjoyed a three-hour excursion on the Mississippi aboard the side wheeler, S.S. President, with dinner and dancing. They toured the city and spent considerable time in the French Quarter and on Bourbon street enjoying delicious food and all the sights. Heard the music of A1 Hirts and saw Red Buttons in the club. This being Mardi Gras, there were parades every day or night throughout the city with festivities building up to the big celebration on Shrove Tuesday. When the folks were waiting for their plane to return home, they were surprised to see Bill and Marion Reinwall in the ter­ minal on their way home to McHenry after attending a farm show in New Orleans. It's a small world! FLORIDA The Leonard Ackermans, we hear by the grapevine, had a nice two week vacation in Florida. They were not alone as the Urban Deckers of Union (Len's sister) went with them and some of the kids. They also had company while there. The most exciting part of the stay was when they saw about two hundred sharks come into the Lake Worth area. Yes, you could see them from the piers. Also, a man caught one in the ocean and when it was cut open, they took out seven babies that were still alive. We hear they were very beautiful, but not when they get bigger. On the way home, they were stalled on Route 65 in Indiana in blowing snow and had to be towed to a station, where after trying to thaw the car for two hours and having no place to go as everything was either closed or full, some thoughtful people offered to let them stay with them overnight and the next day until they could return to the roads. The family was one of the nicest young couple you could meet. It's not too com­ mon these days to find folks who are that trusting and helpful. The Ackermans do hope that their impromptu hosts can visit here some time and maybe in the future can stop and visit with them again under different conditions. HAWAIIAN ISLANDS ' Clayton and Virginia Bruce spent six days in Honolulu attending the National meeting of Soil Conservation district. . 3200 people attended the banquet, where they enjoyed a nine course Chinese dinner. They left Honolulu in a tropical rainstorm and flew to the island of Maui, where it rained twenty-four inches in sixteen hours. They spent 4 days touring the sights of Maui, then moved on to Hawaii and went to the Parker Cattle Ranch, which is the world's largest, 450,000 acres. They got to see the active volcanos and toured that whole island and Clayt picked up a case of fresh pineapples for his families at home. (They sure are good!) The highlight of the trip was when they arrived back in Honolulu, and their plane had blown a tire in Seattle, and they had to mooch their way home, on two different airlines. They left 5 hours behind the main group and beat them back to Chicago by three minutes. Needless to say they had a very exciting vacation. ABOUT TOWN We're very happy to have Nellie Hepburn back home and doing so well. Among the many folks who have been dropping by to say ".hello" were Almira Brushaber of McHenry, the Russell Soddys from Kenosha, Webster Blackmon of Rich­ mond, Barb and Wendy Brennan, Beulah Kick and Althea Walkington.

Then I see the moonlight up a path, And it tells me another day is aft. When I see the sun the next morn, I know another day is born. To do His will each day at a time, To know He expects me to do His will and mine. Rosa L. Nichols G r a s s L a k e R d . & S t a t e P a r k R d .

Farmers from Walworth county, WI., and McHenry county are served by the Farm Bureau-affiliated company. Patronage refunds totaling $557,265 are being returned Farm Bureau member customers at these two annual meeting sessions. In an extemporaneous report to the initial night's group, Steagall said he foresees growing dependency on chemicals, and with this in­ creased use "I see danger signals." Steagall explained farmers are going to need increased instruction in the use and ap­ plication of chemicals. Steagall anticipates restricted use for some chemicals and he said Mchenry FS personnel are attending^ training sessions to keep ^abreast with develop­ ments in the uses and dangers of herbicides, insecticides and fertilizers. "We'll do all we can to help you," he asserted. Robert Gardner, prwHft §t Mclearj FS. AICBIIW plans far the adjoined meeting scheduled for this Friday night following the record reservations necessitating the two-weekend schedule. Annual meeting at the Abbey drew the big response. Gardner is a Solon Mills dairy farmer who heads the Farm Bvrean affiliated company. Big sign behind Gardner shows those McHenry FS salutes this Bicentennial year. DON PEASLEY PHOTOGRAPHY Over 600 Expected To Attend Meeting The adjourned meeting of McHenry FS resumes at 7:30 p.m. this Friday with an an­ ticipated 625-650 expected to attend this thirtieth annual meeting of the farmer-owned company. At this annual meeting continuatkm, three directors will be elected from among four candidates and progress reports will be given by Robert Gardner, Solon Mills dairy farmer who is president, and Stanley Steagall, general manager. Names of Lester Guenther, Woodstock; Harvey Fedrowitz, Marengo; Glen Benoy, Alden; and Carroll Lohmeyer, Woodstock, were placed in nomination by John Martin, chairman of the nominating committee. Nominations remain open for this Friday's meeting, and persons wishing to claim their proxies can do so and vote in person at this windup session, Gardner told the 690 at the first session in the Abbey, Fontana, last Friday night. Old-timers recall that the annual meeting attracted about 750 for a few years in the early 1960's when it was an all-day session at the Woodstock high school. But, as Richard Nickels, veteran member of the FS staff, explained, that figure included many children because those annual meetings were encouraged to become family outings. Movies were shown the children after the noon-hour dinner. The 1,250-1,300 at the two FRIDAY NITE SPECIAL' Perch $2°° PLUS SALAD BAR (ALSO SERVING FROM OUR REGULAR MENU) SING-ALONG EVERY FRIDAY'S.
