Buch, Mrs. Frank Blake, Mrs. Bernard N. Smith, Carl J. Freund, Herbert Freund. Anton P. Freund and Miss Bertilla Freund. He also has twenty-seven grandchildren and fifty-two great grandchildren. The same day. a sister, Gertrude Davis, who resides at the Villa home, observed her eightyfirst birthday, when relatives visited her, bringing cake and ice cream. Mr. Freund can look back' on three quarters of a century in which he has contributed to the progress of McHenry and of the county. His "keen mind and enthusiasm have been used for many years for the improvement of the area which he has always called home. Mr. Freund, even before the turn of the century, helped in organizing the Johnsburg Creamery company, which he served i as secretary and manager. He I also held membership on the Elgin Butter board for seventeen years and was a member of the National Dairy Union and Dairymen's association. He later helped form the county Farm Bureau association. He was among the charter members of the county Good Roads Movement committee and served as its first chairman. Schools and churches were among his special interests. He was a member of the McHenry grade school board for twentynine years and served as trustee of St. Mary's parish. In 1897 he was elected McHenry township assessor and later supervisor, serving as chairman of the county board in 1920. To elaborate on any one of his endeavors would require consider-® able time and the good to come from his interest in even one might well be of more benefit to others ffian many men contribute in a lifetime. SUDDEN. PASSING .. OF McCULLOM LAKE . MAN IS MOURNED / The village of ^AcCullom Lake was shocked Monday morning, Oct. 1, to learn of the sudden passing of Louis Weinsheimer, 70, a summer resident for fifteen years. - , When his wife, Clara, was unable to awaken him, she immediately summoned a neighbor, Mrs. Marie Home, for assistance. The latter called a local physician, who pronounced him dead, apparently from a heart attack. The deceased was' born Nov. 10, 1885, and made his home in Chicago. He planned to retire in January and move permanent* ly to their little cottage on Fountain Lane. The deceased is survived by his widow, Jwo sons, Marvin and Wilbert, and a brother, George all of Chicago. The body was removed to Chicago to Matt's funeral home. Services are being held today (Thursday) at 2 o'clock at Grace Evangelical Lutheran church on Wrightwood avenue, with inter* ment in Ridgewood cemetery. Musin' and Meanderm* Continued from Pafe 1 PLAN AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING FIELD DAY ON OCTOBER 9 ![ Many parents have difficulty disciplining two or three children, but at the Woodstock Children's Home there are fifty exuberant boys and girls with the normal problems of their age requiring discipline. At the home, the practice is to provide activity so that the problems will be at a minimum, William Rosenberger, manager of the home, said as he discussed a new merit program for all boys and girls. "We seek to minimize or eliminate problems, for prevention is' always more desirable than cure," Rosenberger asserted. "Our ten-day vacation trip to Colorado for twenty-eight children is an example of our policy of activity-- to show the youngsters how much fun it is to travel. Few had been away from Northern Illinois. "This week Rev. Maxwell and • I told the older children about • the next trip, but there is an important difference from the .. summer vacation trip." The next trip will be during spring vacation to Washington, D. C., and each child must meet two qualifications in order to go on the trip. "First a child must convince his house parent that he is trying to improve hjmself," Rosenberger said. "His attitude is . important. His .conduct at home, in the community and at school ^ are important. Perfection isn't expected but improvement is essential." The second requirement is that each child must earn a part of his expense money. If no job is available in the community, the young person will be given a job at the home. If he does it well, he will be paid for it, Rosenberger continued. "Activities, properly planned and guided, can be constructive measures toward developing responsible citizens with ambition and good attitudes," concluded Rosenberger. Agricultural engineering ' field day is scheduled for Oct. 9 in McHenry county. The tour will begin at 10 a.m. at the Kunzer- Cristy farm, one and a half miles south and a half mile west of Greenwood. The major topic of discussion will be corn drying. Mr. Cristy has made use of the basic principles of drying with unheated air. The cost of the set-up was v6ry low and has proven very satisfactory in emergencies. Past performances and results as given by John Cristy is expected to be of real value. A noon meal at a very reasonable rate has been planned in Woodstock. A brief session by a University of Illinois specialist Frank Andrew, and Maynard Coe, representative of the National Safety Council, will follow. Ken Doty wll be host after dinner, his farm being located , five miles south of Woodstock, , just off Route 14. Mr. Doty has I what we think is the coming j thing in this fast growing corn I county.
