Of course, the barbers had to suffer with their bunions for another hour to clear the deck. Some men were getting spruced up for Sunday. Young fellows got a close shave with fetching lotions, slapped on their chops before calling on their lady loves.

Will Rogers once said they went to town on Saturday nights to watch the shaves. Long years ago, I went in to get a shave on Saturday night in a small town and had to wait an hour and a half. The cost of the shave was 15 cents, but no charge for all the sparkling conversation by old timers who came in from the hills.

' .r V .. • ' ; * 'mmm That brought a burst out of me -- "What the hell are you doing?" - u • mmm Said John, "You asked for a haircut and shampoo". Oh, no! I asked for a haircut and shave, too. But, John had me where he wanted me and refused to rinse the gook out of my hair until I agreed to pay. We had many humorous tiffs through the years. Never a dull moment. \ ~~ ' When Dreymiller and Lee Kercher were partners in the shop next to Vycital's hardware (south), you had to have your guard up all the time. One time Lee decided to quit bar- bering and opened a nickel beer joint in'a portion of the building. Lee burst into the shop one day when I was getting my curly locks clipped, gave me the wink andstarted one of the darndest sham battles of all time. Lee claimed I was in his beer joint the night before and nearly wrecked his place, throwing mugs all over the place and causing his customers to head for safety. He professed to want me to pay for the damage. ' m*m . <V After the sham battle was over, Lee stomped Out. Dreymiller had a barber who claimed to have come from a big city. He swallowed the whole "battle" . and assured me I could do the same thing in a big city and nobody would ever hear of it. Very consoling. Then, he told John that he would have to keep Lee out of the shop or lose all his business. 1 • Such tricks and goings-on could only happen in McHenry. Barber shops saw a big change when boyish bobs for the girls came into style. The invasion on men's territory didn't last long. There were no electric clippers. At one time it was in vogue to singe the ends of your hair. ' Thinking of their customers welfare and making a sale, barbers would recommend certain tonic to promote growth. , It was Frank Kempfer's German tonic, Buno, that wrecked me. Most of it ran down the back of my neck where the growth is still good. n«>? art of it. As c«rs say, "Don't go There is more to come. " But, this is a big enough load for one issue. Missionary At W-- i'k Alliance Church On Sunday, May 29, the guest speaker at the Alliance church will be the Rev. Ron Mangin, a missionary to the Philippines home on furlough. The Rev. Mangin and his wife, Beth, at­ tended Nyack college in New York and he graduated froin Alliance Theological seminary. The Rev. Mangin Ws assistant pastor at the Christian ahd Missionary Alliance church in Uniontown, Penn. .prior to leaving for service in the Philippines. The Mangins were assigned in 1978 to the city or Bacolod on Negros Island, which has a population of 300,000. This was a totally new area for the Christian ahd Missionary Alliance. They had to first learn the Slonggo language and then plant a church. God brought many people into ®eir^path and in April, 1981, a church was eventually organized. The Rev. Mangin then pastored this church until a national could take­ over. "Much of our ministry," says thev Rev. Mangin, "has been evangelism through home Bi|>hp studies and personal disciplesbip.v The Mangins left the Philippines last July.
