Report On July 12, a group of about twelve M.Y.Fers joined the Mc- Henry, Spring Grove and Hebron M. Y. fWs on a trip to tour the state prison at Statesville in Joliet. Our bus left at 3:15 from the McHenry Methodist church. At approximately 5:30 we stopped at a wayside park area and ate our sack suppers. Our tour of the prison began at 6:45 p.m. Three guards led us through the beautiful inmate kept gardens. We were shown a cell house full of prisoners. We were then taken through the sheet metal works factory, the clothing factory, the high school, the vocational school, the bakery, the kitchen, the mess hall and the chapel. It was pointed out that everything worn.by the prisoners was made^ by their factories. All of the gardening and firming is done by the inmates. The maintenance and upkeep of the prison is taken care of by the men themselves. We were told that men of good standing participated in baseball, football, checkers, cburch, choir, art classes, movies and other special activities. Baseball is the only sport actually sponsored by the prison. Teams from the outside are brought in. Our tour came to an end in the beautiful large chapel that serves as a place of worship for five to seven different denominations. Our questions were then answered by Rev. A. A. Sorenson. Our bus arrived back in McHenry at about 10:30 p.iri, Rev. and Mrs. Brenaman made our very interesting trip possible. Next week there will be no Senior Hi M.Y.F. meeting. Linda Low, Sub.

And that's not bad. It's a good idea to get together at least once a year, because it seems that even then there are still some that you have to ask about. This is an annual event and many look forward to it with eagar anticipation, since it is the only time we get to see some of the younger ones. Each family fixed their own picnic lunches, and ate together, ^fter the wind blew, making all our hot food cold, the men and boys got together for a couple of ball games.
