' •A™A AVM vAvAvvAvAvAvAvAv Marie Schaettgen). , The Gmng Ringwood and Chicago are sixty miles apart and one would think fjtb&t the two places are eons apart itt maner of living.Bill Green was born in Ringwood and Minnie Oreen was born in Chicago. Yet -j|p ~'in' r' fri help things to run smoothly. Charity drives find him in there doing his best to raise funds.<£* Bill was with the NavyVduring the war, in an' amphibious unit. He is a past commander of the American Legion Post No. 497, of McHenry, and adjutant of the eleventh district as well as junior vice-commander in the same organization. Bill's sympatheticrTinderstanding of the various proDtems associated with the affairs of servicemen makes him the ideal person to these two are ideally suited to each Other in so very many ways. There is a rare quality of sympathy and understanding between them. They j^have community of interest rarely «TOund between a man and his wife. McHenry was the common meeting ground for these two. Bill came here with his parents after they •old their farm homestead in Ringwood. Bill's mother was born in a honse on Park street in McHenry and many years later she died in that same house. The interim included a number of years spent in the house that the Greens now oe- Y%jfuPy on Court street. Bill has 'lived in this house for over thirty years. ^ These thirty years have been the formative as well as the happiest years of his life. It is here that lie built his career and established his family. Bill was associated with his wife's father in a dairy business-- the now well known Riverside Dairy. Two of Minnie's brothers #and Bill still operate this dairy and have recently added a dairy products star* at the same location. i Bill has been a tireless and diligent worker in the civic affairs of McHenry in general and the American Legion in particular. Whenever and wherever the Legion activities take place, there you will find Bill doing what he can to arry on the work to which he had just recently been assigned. He was chosen from among many possibilities as the man best suited to be service officer for McHenry, DeKalb and Boone counties. .This is an appointment by the Illinois Veterans Commission. In this job he now combines his avocation with his vocation; his work and his spare time interests have found a common meeting ground. As he untangles the many problems brought to him he will become something of a philosopher and lawyer, a judge and jury and above all he will develop a capacity for tolerance and an unlimited amount of patience. Bill is the man who can do it all without complaints "Whetreh Minnie was forced into becoming civic-spirited through many activities of her hasban whether she gravitated naturally toward the field of service, she nevertheless is bound tightly, to the precedents established by her' husband. Minnie is always present at the local Legion auxiliary meetings and can be depended upon to come up with the right answer to the most perplexing questions of procedure and conduct of the meeting. She Is a past president of our local auxiliary unit and now holds the position t>f historian for the eleventh district, A few of us saw her installed in this office1 in an impressive ceremony in Joliet some months ago. Minnie's extra activities include many hours spent at Downey hospital in the very worthy cause of doing what can be done for the hospitalized veterans there. In the national Legion convention in Chicago last summer Minnie was pre sented with a certificate in ac knowledgement of 100 hours spent at Downey. This is a coveted hon or and Minnie well deserved it Although she is forever busy she finds time enough and to spare to manage a large house and two growing boys. If all this ^sn't enough for this energetic girl, she spends time in the dairy store whenever the need arises. With all this overcrowded pro gram she still finds time for a social life. She is seen at many functions looking much too young and pretty to be the mother of two teen-age boys, much too fragile to be possessed of so much high-powered energy, and much too good natured with her ready laugh to be the serious minded person that she really is. If the Greens had no other mutual interests, the love and pride they feel for their boys would be more than enough for them both. James, the older boy, is almost 18 and hopes to become a mechanical engineer, if he is not called in- /to the service of his country. This boy is a friendly, congenial youngster who meets his parents' friends on their own conversational ground and contributes many well-thought out remarks to the discourse. While his bent is toWard a career in the field of mechanics, he is will suited by his personality to rhe Budc younger boy. Charles, or as he is called more afhas an entirely difnt jterSonality. He likes to retire to an upstairs stody IMi there are guests and quietly axsos* himself with a radio program or a book. 4Ie is a voracious reader, but not a sit-by-the-fire type at all. He takes part In many athletic events and likes them all. The boys and dad teaae and and laugh at mother's hobby, that of restoring antiques, but they pitch in and help and proudly display her result. While Minnie and Bill and the boys, too, are away from home a great -deal, one or the other of them ^running in or out constantly, which makes this house the horned that it is. And that home proudly proclaims that-- These are the Greens. RELATIVES AID STAT* A saving of more than one hundred thousand dollars\last year Is the cost of state-proviaSd clothing in the mental hospitals of Illinois-- a reduction from to $898,730--was made possible by relatives who furnished garments, was reported by Fred K. HosMsr, state welfare director. An intensive. continuing effort is being made to persuade relatives to tarnish clothing for as many as possible of the 45,000 patients iA the state mental institutions, Hpehler said, and still greater .saving to the state during the current year is expected. GI Bill School Deadline In July QI BUI School DeadUso Veterans of World War II are planning Gt Bill education and training were reminded by the Illinois Veterans Commission that the July 25, 1951, cut-off date for starting Bourses is only seven months away. This coming spring school term will be the final such term most veterans may enter or reenter before the deadline, the Illinois Veterans Commission said, so if they plan to enroll it's not too early to, start making arrangements now. The 1951 deadline applies to most World War II veterans-- those discharged from service before July 25, 1947. Those discharged after that date have four yeajrs from their discharge date in which to begin. Veterans actually must have commenced their training by the cut-off date if they want to continue afterwards; the Commission said. A veteran must be in training on that date unless he has temporarily interrupted his course for summer vacation or for < other reasons beyond his control. Once he completes or discontinues his course of GI Bill train" ing after the deadline, he may not start another course. Also, he mast meet the following post-deadline requirements: He will be expected to pursue his training "continuously until completion, except for conditions which normallly would cause inierniption by any student." And he may change his educational objective" only while in training and then for reasons satisfactory to the administrator." Public Law 610, which permits a veteran to make a first change of general fields of study merely by applying for it, will not be in effect after the cut-off date, the IVC said. Veterans wishing assistance in filing for GI Bill benefits may contact the Illinois Veterans Commission service officer at 109 % Benton street, in Woodstock. Office hours are from 8:30 to 5 p.m. on week days, and from 8:30 a.m. to noon on Saturdays. the Want Ads!
