Remembering When MR. AND MRS. WALTER AEVERMAN Married for 51 years, the Aevermans first bought a summer home in McHenry in 1939. Later, they moved to McHenry to live year-round. Aeverman said they moved to McHenry to take advantage of the hunting and fishing and because they needed more room for the children. All four of the children graduated from McHenry high school. (with long time subscribers) Aeverman was employed in a number of different fields, but when he first moved here, he commuted to Chicago, where he was an advertising manager for Admircft. He then went into selling refrigeration and later started his own landscaping business. From there, Walter Aeverman became a foreman for Patzke Roofing. Before retiring, Aeverman worked for the City. "I drove the street sweeper until it burned up on me in front of City hall," Aeverman said. He recalled the days when people would lease the Knox farm for pheasant hunting. "Those guys would get out with their dogs and the pheasants would run right past my backyard," Walter said. "I'd just sit there and get my limit." Aeverman said he used to trade pheasants for rabbits and make hasenpfeffer dinners for the Men's club. He remembered catching big bass, six and eight pounders, in Snug Harbor. During the winters, Aeverman would meet a couple of friends, Emil Patzke and John Reinboldt, on the ice of Pistakee Bay and they would fish until they had a "bucket full of bluegill." Edna Aeverman recalled walking up Green street with bundles from the market and having Pete Wirtz give her a ride home in McHenry's police car. The McHenry Plaindealer has been in the Aeverman family since they moved to McHenry. They both enjoy reading the paper, but particularly turn toPSo I Hear, Musin' and Meanderin' and the police reports. From The Desk Of Illinois State Council On Nutrition by Virginia Hill "DO YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT YOUR KIDS WILL EAT?" I'm not an expert on child care or raising children, although I have had the great pleasure of raising three. My mother used to tell me that only maiden aunts and bachelors without children were experts, but I do know one thing - kids are unpredictable. Just when you tell someone your child won't eat something, they will - at someone else's house. I know that's true because I have a few small friends that occasionally visit me and like to stay for lunch or dinner. Hiey help me conjure up what we're going to eat, prepare it, and set the table for me. I would imagine this helps, but they always eat everything we fix, and time and time again, the mothers ask me, "How come they eat broccoli for you and they won't eat it for me?" I suspect they do this because they're at someone else's house, but also I'm not sure as parents we really know our children's food habits. In a study done recently, many parents didn't know what their children's food preferences were. Maybe because of our own food preferences as parents we assume children will not eat certain foods, and we don't offer them. If daddy really hates liver and makes a big fuss about eating it, we can assume junior will not like it too. But that isn't always the case. Food (references develop early in preschoolers as well as their eating habits, and it is important as parents to realize this. Young children should be offered all types of fruits, vegetables, as well as whole grains and various choices of a milk product. Television commercials bombard young children with advertising that is not always conducive to a good diet. Cereals high in sugar content are an example, or snack food that may be high in calories and not nutrients. To some children, this is the only outside suggestion that something else might be eaten. ) More and more influence is being put on Nutrition Education to the very young. The more exposure the young children have to all foods that are nutritionally sound, the •better for the child. Children need a variety of wholesome foods, just as adults do. The psychology of eating is important to youngsters. We do things as parents sometimes that unwittingly show emphasis on our values. For instance, the "Clean Plate Club" may very often encourage obesity in the young child, and obesity for a child is heartbreaking; and unfortunately, too often the obese young child grows up to be the obese adult. Too large of portions on a child's plate might make it impossible for him to eat it all. Another thing that you hear constantly is, "You will not get your dessert unless you eat everything on your plate!" Suddenly dessert is far too important. Young children like to help - they like to feel important. If they get a chance to help you, just as my young friends help me, it might spark enthusiasm and an interest for them that will help them have good eating habits the rest of their lives!!
