In addition to these grande officers were many guests and officers of other voitures withing the second district. A special tribute was made by the installing officer to Aumonier Phil Bierdeman of Crystal Lake, for his fine spirit and drive which was an inspiration to the membership of the Forty et Eight. A W.W.I, veteran, he recently had to have both of his legs amputated and has been fitted with artificial limbs. Determination made it possible for him to be present at his installation as aumonier, and take the oath of office in person rather than by proxy. Sous Grande Cheminot of the second District Hugh J. Saynor, Sr., (formerly of McHenry) of Voiture 578 of McHenry county, presented Grande Chef De Gare C.

This album was presented on behalf of McHenry County Voiture 578, "The little Voiture with a„ big heart". Newly elected Chef De Gare George Mracheck mentioned a portion of activities to take place by McHenry County Voiture 578 for the coming year. The immediate project at hand is an outdoor wreck (initiation) iif new membership, at which time V. 578 will be host to the entire Grande Voiture as well as representatives from Indiana, Iowa and Wisconsin. From all indications, V. 578 has a real "live wire" as a chef de gare and can look forward to one of the greatest years the voiture has had in some time (and they have had some mighty fine ones.) Just to prove that the voyageurs are behind Chef George the membership presented him with 50 per cent of the coming year's membership dues paid, so that more time can be dedicated to additional activities scheduled for the coming months. McHenry County Voiture 578 still holds a record of forty-two members and thirty-one nurse scholarships awarded to deserving persons of McHenry county. They are only surpassed by a voiture with over 1,200 membership and they have awarded just over fifty scholarships.
