FltEUNDS tie Sehaettgen) {;•- ^ Now and then we find four generations of women in one family, but it is rare indeed to find four generations of men in one family, and rarer to find thetn all In the same community. The family of Anthony P. Freund has these four generations of living, men and three more generations of aneesters who also lived in the McHenry-Johnsburg district. Tony's grandfather came to Amhad helped to* mfcfee the upper' Fox river the thing of beauty it has become. He has dredged many flarts of^the river, as well aB private lakes and channels. He dredged Lily Lake, Wonder Lake and other places as far north as Maditdfc. In the «ar|y days he used horses and scrapers to excavate basements and also drove the horses in the Fox River and scraped the shore. Mr. Freund has done dredging work in sixteen different lakes and fifteen new subdivisions. This Photo by A. Wot wick, McHenry erica in 1850 and brought his mother with him. Tony's father was then a boy. Tony's father, Stephen H. Freund, is at 85 still erect physically and alert mentally and vitally iatercated in the community as well as in the affairs of his large family. He has had a noteworthy career. He was a county supervisor for thirty years and several times a member of the Board of Review, He was assessor for one term. For sixteen years he was a member of the Elgin Butter Board. He retired at the age of 78 but still manafee his Orchard Beach farm. During his political career he fought constantly to get McHenry its share of improvements. He fought, too, to get the most value for the public money. His fighting spirit and sense of economy gained for- McHenry county the 3tate highway and the bridge over it. The county paid for the right of way, but the state built the road and bridge. To him belongs the credit for all the state roads in the township. He has been a distinct assc-t to this community and at 85 is still a grand old man. His son, Tony, has inherited that spirit of aggressiveness. Tony was born at Johnsburg. At the age of 20 be started the Riverside Dairy. From that he went fnto farming at the Orchard Beach farms and it was while thus engaged that he started his dredging and excavating business. This has been his career. He had the first rubber-tired dump truck in the vicinity twenty-six years ago. He POWERFUL! QUICK ACTING!

He also dredged at Glenview airport in an area of abolt forty square miles. About five years ago the A. P. Freund Sons Company bought an army "Duck". This versatile piece of machinery is used to refuel the dredges and it is also used as a tug boat. Since the boys have been operating the business they they have had quite a lot of publicity because they recently moved 100,000 cubic yards of dirt in three months. Thie lfe considered quite a feat. Tony Freund's latest project is the building of a canal or channel to the Fox River. This will make it possible to reach the river from his new Mlllstreain subdivision development. This will be called A. P. Freund's Millstream Park and he is keeping it a residential section of houses of very good quality. Geo. Tonyan has already built five brick houses in this new subdivisision. It is in this subdivision that To'ay is building his new home, on Elm street facing the Legion Park. This home is an ultra-modern ranch house -with a beautiful stone exterior. Tony has been and still is active in civic affairs. He is an officer in the McHenry Business Men's Association He is head of the Holy Name society and is a deputy grand knight in the Knights of Columbus. Probably the nearest thing to his heart in the realm of his diversified interests is the handling of the junior baseball team. He also donated the ball park. He "retired" not too long ago. We say retired with many reservations because he still had his hand in so many things. His sons are now carrying on the dredging business and following the family tradition of success. At present they art dredging and widening the Fox river as part of the state's program to beautify the Fox river. This year they will complete the dredging, deepening the river to six feet in the center and 100 feet in width as far as Burton's Bridge. When it is finally completed as far as the dam, it will be possible to go down river by boat to Algonquin. Rep. Tom Bolger is responsible for getting the appropriation for this undertaking. Tony might have been successful had he remained a bachelor, but we believe that his wife has been an inspiration and a silent partner hi his career. She hfis brought up a family of seven ' attractive girls and four fine boys, which is a great credit to her and to Tony. Three of the four boys now operate the A. P. Freunds Son3. Co., and the fourth and youngest will become a member when he finishes school. Three of the girls were nurses before their marriage. It is almost unbelievable that one family could produce so many attractive girls. Mrs. Freund and Tony were married in 1914. She was Margaret Blake and was born at the Blake homestead right here in McHenry. The Freunds built a house on Richmond Road in 1928. This.is a very live there, with four of the chil dren still at home. Donald and Margie are still in school. Dorothy is a phone operator and probably most McHenry people have said hello to her at some time or other. If they could see the attractive girl behind the "hello" they would pray for televised phon ^ service. Marian, another one i T the good looking Freund clan, s a career girl also. She is a boo . teeper. Mrs. Freund is a lovely lady who undergtan.'s her family well. But her strong I'nniily feeling does not exclude outside interests. She is quite a social minded person and is "on the go" constantly. She has a pleasant manner toward people that reaches out and enfolds thein. She enjoys her family so much that once a month she stages a family reunion. This is so important an event that the Freunds' new home will have a huge kitchen and dining room on the ground floor especially built for the gathering of the clan. There is a great fireplace there (bo and when all of them are gathered 'round. Tony's cup of happiness must be filled to overflowing. These are the Freunds. CARD OF THANKS We wish in this manner to express our thanks for floral offerings, spiritual bouquets, donations of cars, cards of sympathy and the many * other kindnesses extended in our bereavement.

COOKS CORNER '• (by Marie Sehaettgen) " Now that Lent is with us again and so many meatless days ahead to cope with, you might like to have a few tricks up your sleeve-- tricks with tuna fish, for instance. Tuna is a versatile creature. It tastes like chicken or it tastes like fish. But most of us like it especially on those days when we caa't have steak or chops. linked Potatoes With Tuna Bake well-sorubbed potatoes until well done. Remove from oven and cut small criscross on top. While potatoes are baking prepare tuna in this manner: Tuna chunks may be used nicely in this recipe. Place contents of can of tuna in strainer and rinse with boiling water to remove oil. Prepare a thin white sanoe ^ith 2 tablespoons butter. 2 tab'eHpoons flour and LV.> cups milk. Add tuna to cream sauce and add one small can of peas drained and a small can of mushroom phx-es. Keep hot or reheat when potatoes are baked. Place a baked potatoe on each plate and enlarge "the criscrosses to a good-sized depression. Spoon the tuna mixture into this depression and ovar potatoe. Serve piping hot with hot rolls and tea. The tuna can be combined with any left over chicken on meat days and this winning trick will get you a good hand. > Even for those sharp ones who »W|ll 'recognize tlu tuna, it is 'pleasant Page Ttot# mmmmrnrnis"; combination.
