Tr*ai •ii >iiii »n -.* |f*S» T:-W,^ f ,£V -Happy the bride the *un shines •pon," is an old adage and I hope a true one. Anyway, the sun shone benignly on Saturday, Sept. 20, for the wedding- of Dolores Murphy which took place at the McHenry Methodist church at 4:30 p. m. Dolores, who is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Murpjiy, of Shore Hills was united in marriage to Mr. Arthur Kunkel, "son of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Kunkd of Bellwood, 111. Her. Wayne Price officiated at the double-ring: ceremony. (Flickering candlelight at the altar and fivefoot baskets of white gladioi made a suitable background for a particularly beautiful bride, who was .given in marriage by Iter father. Her wedding gown was of white marquisette, made with a long train, a tight bodice, bishop sleeves and a square lace-trimmed neckline. Her fingertip veil, also lace trimmed, was held in place by a headdress studded with seed pearls. Her only jewelry was a quaint old locket, heavily engraved, | which, was an heirloom and which i contained pictures of her dad when he was young. Her bouquet was of • white gladioli. , Mrs. Alice Burr of McHenry at the organ, provided background mu- ' sir, played the processional and served as accompanist for Loilann ' Howorka, who sang, "Because" and "I Love You Truly ."just before the ceremony. i Lucille Nickcl of West McHenry served as maid cf honor; Marjorie Ripley of Maywoad served as bridesmaid, and 10-year-old Joy Stuedmann, niece of the bride, was junior 1 bridesmaid.

In bnt one month the membership drive had given this association a total~of over eightyfive active participants. It is sad to relate that the interest and sfelf-sacrifico the overwhelming majority of the membership is of such a nature as to be practically non-existant. Meetings were to be held on the first Wednesday of each.and every month; this would mean one or two hours each month would be devoted to the betterment of living and business conditions in the area. Evidently the time is too precious to give--the pursuit of happiness or the dollar is too consuming to allow even two hours a month to be spent in making both a little nicer or easier to attain. The last three monthly meetings have not had an attendance in excess of twelve, not near enough to give a quorum. ^ w The Association has been asked to act in dealing up the parking problem--obtaining better commuter service--working out comprehensive store hour plan? for summer and winter--- curbing juvenile delinquency--discussing and reaching a conclusion on the hospital question--to submit recotnmcndatibns- on a municipal zoning ordinance--and many other problems of a truly beneficial and necessary nature. Of course, in view of the tremendously pressing problems which must be present, most of the members just can't set up a two-hour period once a month in their schedule to help in the solution or organization of the above program. Evidently Civic Duty comes far down on the list of Things To Do. Thene will be a meeting of the Association next Wednesday, October first, at the American legion Hall, eight o'clock in the evening. This, so far as the present • officers are concerned, is the last attempt. If no further interest is shown, we will terminate the activities as of that night. The treasury will probably be donated to some deserving subdivision road project and all will be peaceful again. No twinges of conscience on those Wednesday nights--no fear of being put on a committee to aid in curbing juvenile delinquency or make possible a larger year round population by virtue of better train schedules--Me Henry's Civic Spirit will be again laid to re*t with but few mourners. It is distinctly up to you giembers--either you appreciate tlie life the community givee yon enough to work for the community--or you don't. f • ^ JOHN E. IiOOZE, President.
