A I lovely crowd of 71 former !< McHenryites spent the day I chatting and renewing I acquaintances. * ! Eight new members were - greeted with enthusiasm: Cyril 'Aliens,Jim Lester, Ernest I Harths, Helen Miller, Allan t Vogts, Maryjean Ziemba, Henry Shermans and Howard Bieritzs. Dorothy Miller of Pompano ' Beach was a first timer. ; The membership voted to • have the next McHenry Day on I March 30, 1985 and the meeting I place has been changed. We will ; be meeting in the Anderson • Park, Rt. 19, Tarpon Springs, ^ Florida. Everybody is an- J ticipating a large turnout for the ; 16th McHenry Day. • The committee, which con- j? sists of Bill Pries and Pauline, ; Elaine Gray, Roy and Loretta * Homo, John and Shirley »Woodward and Ray and ^Florence Rothermel, strive to {make each and every gathering • a little different. A grand time • was had by all at the 15th v McHenry Day. ' Thanks a lot <Bill and Pauline Pries ! Thanks for the report, Bill and r. Pauline. The whole idea of • McHenry Day has pleased many ; people. I I am posting the date and * place concerning your next v gathering. Each year somebody phones for information. Note to Bill: I am starting a new collection of keys, but don't want your help. Every time we have bones to put in the garbage after a meal, I think how some dog would like to chaw on them. In our day, we fed the dog with scraps from the table. Never thought of buying dog food. Way back in the days when it was a sight for a girl's petticoat or bloomers to show beneath the skirt, smartaleck boys would yell: "I see London, I see Frtuice. I see somebody's^'Tta- derpants." How times have changed. It has been discovered that Herb Reihansperger is a song leader. I didn't know tllat! Yep. Rumor has it that Herb will sing the National Anthem on opening day at Wrigley Field in 1985. That should draw a crowd. Everybody I met was talking about the terrible thunderstorm occuring one night last week. "What storm?" With my hearing aids on the stand beside the bed, I slept peacefully through it all. SUDDEN THOUGHT- In my hospital stays, it seemed like every patient ad­ mitted had a new bathrobe. Not much excitement on Halloween. The weather dampened some enthusiasm. The scare of tampered candy also showed. In days when my father was the only policeman in town, he was (xi foot and couldn't keep up with the tricks all over town. The favorite trick was tipping over outhouses. The late Percy Lodtz used to tell how a gang of older boys tipped over the extra large (8- holer) outhouse in back of the City Hall. " When the "building was tipped, the boys looked up and saw "Officer Jack" (my father). Percy claimed, "Jack didn't bawl us out as we expected. All he said was," boys, you got it down, now put it up again". When they couldn't get the building up, they had to pool their money the next day and hire George "Frenchy" Meyers (with team of horses) to restore the building. There weren't many arrests in those days as punishment matched the crime. Today your business depends on the efficiency of your air conditioner. Imagine how much business a restaurant would do in July if they put a sign in the window: No air conditioning. We met so many congenial people at the Longhorn Friday night that I can't remember which girl asked if I remember when calendars had pockets attached for holding bills. Yep. That I remember. How come? I wash as much as anybody, but every time I wear a clean shirt for a few hours the collar looks dirty. Maybe it wasn't a bad idea to wear detachable collars as was the style way back when. Men used to wear those hard collars at one time. Morris VanAtta operated a laundry ana went from house to house to pick them up. Men didn't change shirts every time they changed collars. That's the way it was. And that's that for another week.
