PO* 14, sic. I - PLAINDEALER - JUNE 15, 1967 Lawrence watched as the duck, carefully led her brood through the high grass to a pond not far from McCullom Lake, always looking back to be sure the nine were following. Mrs. Lawrence was left Tuesday afternoon with the task of keeping watch over the one egg which remained unhatched.

We feel fortunate to have j0saa!^ some of these people to have been the recipient ,jkat their generous gratitude for :• association which we are f'suire was more valuable to us A wonderful two-week reunion came to an end Tuesday of this week when Volborg Jeppesen left by plane for her native Copenhagen, Denmark, af- *ter a visit in the home of her fcro&er, Jeppe Jepsen. It was hsr first trip to this country. Hie attractive Miss Jeppesen stopped in our office before departure. Although she was unable to converse in English she flashed a broad smile and managed a convincing "wonderful" when we asked how she liked the United States. As we watched the antics of old time comedians in a TV broadcast of "The Golden Age of Comedy" last Sunday, following so closely the televised UN peace negotiations, we were prompted to ponder that if the world had more of this type comedian possibly there would be no war! Of all the businesses and professions, teaching probably offers more satisfaction in retirement simply for the reason that one is always meeting someone from "way back when" to whom he taught his A, B, Cs. We suspect that former Supt. C. H. Duker, residing so very close to the school he served as administrator for many years, must very often enjoy memories of another day as he meets again just such people. One of those occasions came last week when Anna PoppStowell of California visited the community she left long ago. A former classmate, Alex Justen, accompanied her on a visit to see Mr. Duker, who remembered her even though the time interval had been forty years. 'hers will recall when father Bernard Papp operated a shoe repair shop in West McHenry in the building which now houses a tailor shop. Both Anna and her younger sister, the late Rosa, were budding clarinetists in the school band and later the city band. Besides her visit with Mr. Duker, Anna enjoyed seeing a classmate, Charles Vycital, solotrumpeter in the same aggregation. "Old Home Weeks" are probably the most rejuvenating experiences of all! Docks and ducklings seem to lie in the news these days. Mrs. John Lawrence of West Shore drive, Lakeland Park, reported that three "youngsters" were hatche^L on Monday and six aO Tuesday in the Lawrence yard.
