All comments pertaining to the ExDositinn There were close to three hundred persons in attendance at the ninth annua) meeting of the McHenry County Historical society, held in the old Union school, built in 1870. It was a case of standing room only. These many persons were able to see the future home of the museum and what a great deal of work and money will be necessary to get it in first class shape and meet the necessary fire and safety standards. Delbert Gehrke, president of the Union school board at the time of the sale of the school to the society, presented the key of the old school to Mrs. Dorothy McEachren, president of the society and welcomed the society to the community. Mrs. McEachren responded. She said it had been the goal of the society from its founding to one day have its own building and myseum, adding that this was a happy and historic occasion. Following the presentation of the key, another presentation took place. Commander Harold Mackeben and Adjutant Wallace Albrecht of the Henry F. Miller Post of the American Legion, No. 482, presented the society with a check for $500 to be placed in renovating fund. It has been estimated that it will take about $125,000 to put the building in shape and meet all necessary fire and safety requirements. President McEachren reviewed the work of the past year and the many hours of deliberation on the part of the directors in taking over the school as its museum. She pointed out that the objective of the society was not only to preserve artifacts of the early settlers but its continuing history. As soon as the museum is opened to the public, mem­ bership services will be were good. It was interesting. The tulips in the yard of the Leo Sales are beautiful. To the people who called concerning the repairing of the roads. Try to attend a board meeting, these things are discussed there.

The program for the af­ ternoon was a talk by Lynn Anderson, the well known historian and originator of the "Antique Hot Line", a program he conducts over radio stations throughout Northern Illinois and Channel 7, TV. Kennedy & Co., Chicago, tje is a professional appraiser and often consulted in dating and valuing antiques. He talked about heritage and history and why they were worth con­ sidering. He pictured the rapid change of way of life in this county in the past 100 years. He drew sighs and laughter when he asked how many had owned a 1928 Ford and couldn't wait to change it in for a later model, only now to be told the same car could bring as much as $5,000. He stated that a history without a past has no future. "One should not dwell in the past", he said, "but in order to appreciate the here and now, we should be familiar with what went on before and went into creating what we enjoy today." After his enlightening talk and demonstration with a few of his own artifacts, he un­ dertook to give appraisals for the many items that were brought by those in attendance. They ranged from very old to recent, and from very small to cradle, chair and one large colored and leaded glass dining room fixture. He said it was not a Tiffany product, but because of its perfect condition and the fact that it was made by an associate of Tiffany, it was worth between four and five hundred dollars, a squeal of joy and exicitement was heard. Everyone seeemed happy to know a little more about his prized possession. Coffee and cookies were served by Mrs. Ruth Cripe, Marengo, Mrs. Thresile Guhrke and Miss Edith Bohn. page 3-plaindealer-Wednesday) may u, 1972 look To Make Sure Herbert, a lovesick but suspicious sailor, bought his girl some stationery.
