Remembering When... MR. AND MRS. FRANK BLAKE (with long time subscribers) Mr. and Mrs. Frank Blake have subscribed to the McHenry Plaindealer for at least 64 years-as long as. they have been married. Mrs. Blake said the Plaindealer had been in her family longer than that, for as long she can remember. Throughout those years, 1918 and 1926 were the ^snost memorable for Mrs. Blake. April 18, 1918, was the Issue in which the St. Mary's church fire was reported. Mrs. Blake's father had been a carpenter and helped to build that church. The other headline that remained with Mrs. Blake in memory throughout the years was the West McHenry fire in April of 1926. That fire destroyed the N.J. Justen and Son furniture store, the West McHenry Post office and the William H. Althoff hardware store. Nowadays, the Blakes still read the Plaindealer from cover to cover, but said they particularly enjoy the community sections. Mrs. Blake said she did not like the rapid growth- all the new subdivisions-in the City. "It used to be you knew everyone in town," she observed. | College H o no rs N.I.U.

Very often they come in the form of peace of mind. Or a better life style. Or a happier family. For in stance, consider a common problem ... a family that has grown faster than their home. Getting the day started can be a real hassle when there is one bathroom less than needed. You are late for work and in a hurry your daughter has developed an affectation for the mirror in the bathroom, younger children are turning teeth-brushing into an all day project. You forget breakfast and hope the day improves before noon. In this scenario the small investment, of course, is in a new bathroom. The big dividends come in the form of peace of mind, a slightly brighter outlook for the start of each day. Dividends like this are part of the reason for low-cost home improvement loans. So if your day needs brightening and your home needs repair or remodeling, maybe our home-improvement loans will help . . . you dan BANK on it! v J * SOMETHING OLD... y OMETHING NEW...
