HONORED ON RETIREMENT HAROLD WOHNRADE Harold Wohnrade of ' 3613 Hilltop Drive Wonder Lake was guest of honor at a party \iven for him last Thursday -vcning. Approximately fory male employees of Morton Chemical company attended .he aff-iir. Mr. Wohnrade has been employed in the accounting department of the Ringwood division of Morton Chemical company for - the past eighteen years. Previous to this time he was an accountant for a Chicago accounting firm. He told the group that when he started out in the accounting business he was told to throw away his watch and get an alarm clock. Now that he is retiring the employees presented him with a gold wrist watch to replace the one he threw away. Not to be outdone by the ma'es in honoring a very "favorite" employee of the company, the female employees of Ringwood, plus a few who have transferred to Woodstock and Chicago offices of the company, gathered for a surprise luncheon for Mr. and Mrs. Wohnrade on Tuesday, Aug. 31. Also on Tuesday at 3 p.m., cake and coffee were served to the entire plant at Ringwood. The Wohnrades have three children, Richard of McHenry, Robert of Crystal Lake and Joan Althoff of McHenry; and fourteen grandchildren. In the future, instead of battling the elements to get to work in the winter, the Wohnrades hope to spend their winters basking in the Florida sunshine. ENDS LONG SERVICE He liked commuters, and commuters liked him well enough that one called the Milwaukee rood's public relations office to ask, "What are you doing about John Haddock's last run today?" When the 5:43 Chicago-to- Fox Lake run pulled out of Union station on Tuesday, Aug. 31, the popular conductor, John J. Haddock, was making his last trip before retiring, after eleven years on the suburban trains, after thirty- six years as a conductor and forty-eight years with the Milwaukee road. His other daily run was the Train No. 140, the 8:10 morning train from Fox Lake, carrying some of the same passengers he saw each week-day night. Haddock and his wife plan to continue living at 5715 N. Woodland drive in McHenry, although they'll spend a few months each winter in Florida. The immediate plan of the Haddocks is to take a leisurely automobile trip through the "whole west part of the country." Mr. Haddock, born in Milwaukee Wis., bean working with the railroad as a machinist in the shops at Milwaukee in 1917, becoming a conductor in 1929. He worked for some years as a conductor on cross-country service, including the famous Hiawatha trains, before switching over to suburban service in 1954. Conductor Haddock plans to spend more time on his favorite hobby, oil painting, "and also to do more fishing.
