(Continued on page 5) THE NRY PLAINBEALER SERVING THE CHAIN-O-LAKE S REGION SINCE 1875' VOL 91 - No 31 - 2 Sections Friday, December 22, 1967 16 Pages -- 10^ City-School Boundary Lines Under Discission Discussion of boundary lines between city of McHenry property and the Landmark school was the main issue at the City Council meeting Monday night. Maps from as far back as 1898 were reviewed in an attempt to trace exchanges of property. The possible sale of school property brought up the subject of surveys and the resulting attempt to trace transactions down through the years. In the course of discussion, city Attorney John Looze expressed the thought that all Musin9 and It was good news to hear Riverside drive merchants tell us of the generous service performed in the, spirit of the season by young students from Marian high school. Sometime after closing hours for stores last week, these young folks brought tinsel, plastic balls and other decorations to the business block and decorated all of the trees which mark the parking meters. There is no more fitting season to recognize the many, many wonderful young folks in our midst. The Plaindealer staff greatly enjoys the many cards that come our way during the holiday season. o One of our favorites is always the unusual card that makes its way to this desk from Mr. and Mrs. Elmer "Biff" Meyer of Chicago. This year, in the center of a holiday wreath, the message read: Dear K.A.F.: There are many ways to say and spell Christmas. One of them is the McHenry Plaindealer. To you and your entire staff, Merry Christmas". Another message came from Mr. and Mrs. A.S, Kimbro.now making their home in Tennessee. They are the parents of the late Polly Stevens, who endeared herself Pro our readers as correspondent of the Surinyside Estates column. We have had many "bouquets" thrown the way of the Johnsburg rescue squad, commending the part they play in saving lives in the McHenry area. May we add our thanks for these volunteers. Many admiring glances have been directed to the lovely tree on the island, near the city hall. We learned this week that it came from the yard of Paul J. Brefeld at 3507 W. Washington street, who made this his contribution to the city's holiday viewing pleasure. They tell us that prospects of a white Christmas are decreasing by the day, in spite of the fact that Winter makes its entrance today. The folks who have vivid recollections of pushing stalled cars through the "beautiful white" of two years ago Christmas eve and day will probably willingly forego the lovely look of winter this year of 19,67. K.A.F. possibilities should be considered and recommended that the council give some thought to the sale of the property in which the City Hall now stands, if the school property should be sold. He expressed the opinion that the sale of the present property would derive sufficient funds to permit the acquisition of a larger site and new building for various city offices and departments. The growth of the city indicates that some changes will have to be made in the not too distant future. Re cent thinking and planning has been along the lines of adding to the present building. It was agreed to meet with the school board to discuss the boundary lines and work out a solution in a fair manner. Santa Visits Area Dec. 23 At the request of the Pistakee Highlands Woman's club, Santa will take time from his busy schedule Saturday, Dec. 23. On this date he will be waiting at the Highlands Community center from noon to 2 p.m. and hopes to visit with many Highlands children. All youngsters in the Pistakee Highlands community are welcome to come to the community center and will receive toys and candy. A special treat will be a picture of Santa.
