Wmm So I Hear All I can conclude is they should have more White Sox players on the American League team. Baines was the only one on the squad. He batted one time and got a hit. That's batting .1000 for the Sox. That 5-inch rain of a week ago was all the fault of Lucille Ott. Her flowers were petting dry so she prayed for rain. » Praying was fine, but she overdid it. A man looking for his car in a parking lot said, "The doctor gave me some memory pills. Now I can't remember wnere I put them". Jake Stoffel, a loyal reader, was driving along one day a saw five grownup couples playing croguet in a front yard. You seldom see that game nowadays. Jake was tempted to stop and see if he could get into the game. by Earl Walsh an old, old picture of Streetz, Schaefer, and Schaid families- Dear Earl:- I too, thoroughly enjoy S.I.H. Especially your strolls down Memory Lane. During WW1 I was night Operator for Chicago Bell, as it was known then. Fox Lake was "Sin City" at that time and I was able to listen to many lurid tales, thanks to the night operator in Fox Lake. He would ring me up and plug me into some of nis mid-night con versations. I learned a great deal about Chicago's un derworld, Mr. Capone's domain- names, places and events. It was pretty heady stuff for an 18 year old small town gal! McHenry was a pretty exciting place in those war years. It wasn't the quiet sleepy little town it appeared to be. If I'd had any writing ability I could have come up with a Best Seller. * Good Health and best wishes! Aileen Gillespe: Hi O'Reilly Gillespe: Of course, you know I km much too young to remember! Never heard that name for Fox Lake. Am sure it wouldn't apply today. It is a fast growing, progressive city. With all that information on the underworld, it is just as well you never wrote the book. We have a granddaughter named Aleen. Like knocking the "L" out of Kelly, they knocked the "I" out of Aileen. --And my Best Wishes to you. S.I.H. It was Mary Jean Lah who brought us the humorous report on college reunions. Here are some gleanings. There are many more: College reunions can be a competitive sport. At early reunions, classmates compete with each other about jobs and incomes, at the 25th, it's spouses and children. After that, they brag about their grandchildren and vacation homes, while regarding, with envy or glee, classmates' waistlines, hairlines, wrinklelines. It is said there are Three Ages of Woman: youth, middle age and "you haven't changed." In our day cigarette smoking was fashionable, grass was mowed, coke was something you drank, and pot was something you cooked in. Space is running out so here are some shorties: Jerry Larkin checks my memory and catches me-- Eskimo Pies were not on a stick- -Jerry was not only a great athlete in his day-his memory is also great. It is hard to find a baseball fan who is in sympathy with the million dollar players-- -Our police department gave me the more popular offerings at only 35 cents. But milk shakes, cheesc sandwiches, and other dairy taste treats will vie for popularity. Dave Gardner, Solon Mills, is chairman of the Dairy Promotion Council. Bob Richardson, Spring Grove, is Pork Producers chairman. Another farm organization- Pomona, Grange-is involved Members work at two jobs. Grange members volunteer their services to staff the gates. The Grange continues to operate an outstanding family food stand, a practice since the fair was revived in 1949 as a 4-H Junior Fair. The fair features 4-H, Junior and Open Class competition. For fair goers, several other food stands are available as visitors tour the youngsters' exhibits and watch keen competition in the show ring. ESTATE AUCTION SUN.
