w ' • • Tss!^ THE MeHSkSY PLAIrlDHALEB Thursday* June25, 1964 Told Tales YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of June 26, 1924) ' Miss Marie Young, daughter ;6t Mrs. Catherine Young, who " resides on the Terra Cotta vroad, just outside of the south city limits, took the veil at St. Joseph's convent at Milwaukee, Wis., on Tuesday of this week. She is now known as Sister Mary Edulfa, OES. Sister Edulfa entered the Milwaukee convent last fall. Elgin road, leading into this city from the south, where the sewer extension is now being put in, has been closed to automobile traffic since Monday morning of this week, this step having been made necessary on account of-heavy rains of the past week. Detour signs have been erected south of this city, directing automobile traffic to take the crossroad at Terra Cotta and thence west to the Crystal Lake road. It has' just been brought to our attention that a commuters' service over The Chicago and North Western railway, between this point and Chicago, can be brought about in time, provided a little honest effort is set forth by the people of Mo- Henry and Chicagoans who have summer homes here. The Chicago and North Western railroad, like all other large corporations is not adverse to more business and we feel certain that if the officials of that company can be shown where such a service will pay them, McHenry can, and will, be included on the Chicago suburban district, giving patrons of the road here the same privilegesTfiow enjoyed by all towns between Crystal Lake and Chicago. This section last Sunday noon was visited by the season's most severe rain and hail •> storm, causing considerable damage to vegetation and property. The storm broke about 1 o'clock and for fifteen minutes the streets here were swept by great torrents of water which in a numbe^of cases flooded basements. A barn dance will be held in the new barn at the William Oeffling farm, located north of JohnsbUrg, on Saturday evening of this week. The music for the occasion will be furnished by the Novelty Five of this city. Mr. and Mrs. Fred C. Schoewer very delightfully entertained a gathering of relatives and friends at their home on John street last Saturday evening. Bunc<$ games and music made up a most enjoyable evening. A pretty wedding was solemnized ^at^-Str-Mary's Catholic church here at 9 o'clock on Wednesday morning of this week, the contracting parties being Miss Margaret Pearl Freund and Mr. Frank M. Masquelet, both of McHenry. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Charles S. Nix, while Sister Cantia played the wedding march. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of June 22, 1939) Mrs. Kate Howe Fay of Elgin, a former teacher in the McHenry public schools, retired from active teaching with the conclusion of the current school year two weeks ago. Henry Heuser, 45 years old, died suddenly Monday morning while on his way to work. He was employed at Regner's Grocery and Market as a meat cutter. He had not been ill and his death came as a complete shock to his relatives and many friends. A slogan contest for juvenile members of the Royal Neighbors of America is being conducted as a feature of the annual summer juvenile membership campaign of the fraternal benefit society, according to an announcement by Maud Rothermel,' recorder for Camp No. 6618. Friends here await news of the fate of Dr. Glover C. Hanson, prominent Havana physician, whose inexplicable disappearance last Wednesday has aroused much anxiety for his safety. The case evoked unusual interest in this city because Dr. Hanson's wife is a McHenry girl, the former Agnes Fox. An all-day picnic with gobs of fun and merriment and, of course, refreshments, was the order of the day at the J. C Bender home located south of this city Saturday. The spacious grounds surrounding the home served as an ideal spot for 250 picnickers, employees and their families of Mr. Bender's Ahlberg Bearing company in Chicago. Mary Ann Noonan, young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Allen Noonan of this city, narrowly escaped drowning when she fell in the waters of Pistakee Bay Sunday afternoon. She was visiting her aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. Pink Harrison, when the near tragedy occurred. She lost her footing when attempting to jump from the pier into a boat and fell into eight feet of water. Her brother, Anthony, pulled her out of the water. George Then of Pistakee Bay sustained a broken leg in an automobile collision which occurred Sunday morning at the intersection of 111. Rt. 31 and Johnsburg road. Having received the commission probationary lieutenant in the Salvation Army, Margaret E. Sundquist, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Victor Sundquist of West McHenry. soon will begin her service as assistant at the East Chicago corps. Mrs. Ralph Bennett entertained friends Sunday in honor of her sister, Eunice Marshall, who will be married June 24. TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of June 24, 1954) Six future senior students at the local high school are attending Boys State at Springfield this week. With 1,200 youths from throughout the state, they are learning first hand the various phases of government operation. Eight were selected by a vote of the faculty to attend, but two were unable to make the trip. The eight chosen included Jack Pearson, Howard Useman, Francis Oeffling, Gregory Nowak, Dick Kloepfer, Carl Poedtke, Terry Reid and Ralph Patzke. Excitement brought a crowd to the McHenry Beach on Riverside Drive when a young teen-age girl from Carpentersville had to be helped to shore after high waves carried her under the surface for a few moments. Waves from a passing boat made the water rough and she became panicky when she swallowed a quantity of water. The community was saddened to learn of the death of George Worts, local businessman for many years, who passed away unexpectedly Sunday after noon, June 20, at the Woodstock hospital. The happy, noisy laughter of 200 children replaced the quiet which reigned at Villa Marie, Catholic Charity camp on Pitakee Bay, with the opening of the summer season last Monday. The youngsters saw for the first time two new buildings which were only recently completed. They are an 80-ft. rereation building and a beautiful chapel, both of grey cement block construction. Richard, son of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Stilling, has received a full four-year scholarship to the university of Miami at Coral Gables, Fla. He was an outstanding athlete in high school. Four full months of pheasant and partridge shooting at the Pistakee Bay game farms near McHenry is the attractive lure offered sportsmen in this area by a newly organized rod and gun club. A very lovely wedding was McHENRY GIRL IN GOLDWATER ROUND-UP JULY 2 GAIL MARQUART Thomas Davis, McHenry county chairman of the 12th district voters for Goldwater, has announced that Miss Gail Marguart of McHenry, 12th district Miss Goldwater and first runner-up in the state-wide contest, has been invited to participate in a gigantic Goldwater Round-up. The Goldwater Round-up is scheduled for Thursday, July 2, from 1:30 to 5:30 p.m., at the Triple R Ranch, Frankfort, III., located on Chicago's southwest side, less than one hour from the Loop, south of the intersection of Rt. 45 and U.S. 30 (maps on the back of the tickets).
