MARGARET O'NEIL Clerk of the Court (Pub. Oct. 11, 18, 25, 1968) FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Oct. 18, 1928) Five skeletons of human beings have recently been uncovered on Coon Island during some grading that has been in progress there. Coon Island is a beautiful, verdant island, opposite Bald Knob, between Pistakee Bay and the lake. One of the skulls which was found intact has been taken to Chicago for examination to determine whether it is that of an Indian or a white person. The river and lakes region was the home of the famous Pistaqua tribe of Indians many years ago before any white settlers had yet visited this part of the country. The grave of the Indian chief of this tribe is thought to be on Cedar Island. A serious automobile accident occurred east of Spring Grove Sunday afternoon when August Huff and Albert Pepping miraculously escaped death when their car overturned into the ditch. Born to Mr. and Mrs. Edward Nickels, a baby girl Oct. 9 at the Woodstock hospital. Dr. J.A. Street is now located in his office in the Pries building where he will engage in the general practice of medicine. J.J. Ryan, foreman at the Plaindealer office was notified of the death ofthis mother, Mrs. Sarah Maneno at Bradley, 111. The big barn on the Walsh farm about one mile north of Colemar burned to the ground. The cattle and horses were rescued but seven calves lost their lives in the fire as well as a truck, other tools and machinery, grain and hay. The farm is tenanted by Mr. and Mrs. Ben J. May. The development company have several guards stationed on their property in Bull Valley, keeping people from gathering nuts and various other articles. TWENTY - FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Oct. 21, 1943) Hundreds of interested spectators braved the chilly, strong winds of the day to gather on Sunday for the dedication of the McHenry Community honor roll. Several of our servicemen were fortunate enough to be home for the day and their presence added much to the solemnity and dignity of the event. A beautiful bronze eagle, carved by Frank Holmes, Sr., and Frank Holmes, Jr., who reside south of McHenry, is the newest addition to the honor roll, spreading its wings in a protective style above the long list of names. Early Tuesday morning fire destroyed the barn and silos on the Flossom farm two miles west of McHenry. The tenants on the farm were Mr. and Mrs. Albert Schmitt. Damage was estimated at about $6,000. The man who for the past year and one half has setup news about his fellow townsmen is this week part of the news himself. He is Howard Williams, an employee of the McHenry Plaindealer, who died of a heart attack Oct. 18, suffered two days before. Word has been received of Lt. John Boyle of the Army Air corps. The family received notice some time ago he was missing in action over France. It was suspected he was a prisioner of war and just recently they received word stating he and the rest of the crew were prisioners of war. TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Oct. 9, 1958) Six Campion Jesuit high school seniors have been named semi-finalists in the 1958- 59 national merit scholarship competition. Among them is Richard Herdrich of McHenry. He is sports editor of the school publication. Ruth Pahlke of Holiday Hills subdivision suffered a fractured left arm when her car overturned in a ditch on the McHenry-Gris wold Lake blacktop road. William Lee of Rt. 3, McHenry, isamongthe430menand women from twenty states and several foreign countries enrolled at Rockford college this semester. Little Cynthia Mathews, 23 months old, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Troy Matthews of Fritzsche's Estate, died of pneumonia at the McHenry hospital Oct. 7. Roy H. Johnson, a resident of Cooney Heights, McHenry, was recently presented with an inscribed golf pin in recognition of forty years of faithful service. Mr. Johnson is a train messenger for the Railway Express agency in Chicago. The members of the cast of the home talent play "The Road to the City" were the guests of the Mothers' club at a three course chicken dinner at the home of Mr. and Mrs* James Perkins. This play was recently given by local talent under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Choate. The members of the cast were Herman Steffes, Arthur Krause, Paul Patzke, Earl Walsh, Jean Matthews, Mrs. Arthur Krause, Laura Michels and Adeline Perkins. The paving of Crystal Lake road from the North Western tracks to the city limits was awarded to E.H. Merrick for the sum of $11,405.00 The local Smith-Hoover club announces that a smoker will be held at the Legion club room Oct. 19. A radio will be hooked up to listen to the address of A1 Smith to be delivered in Chicago. Rev. Bonham of Chicago will be the pastor at the Methodist church for the coming year. A full house of spectators eager to see themselves as others see them were present at the Empire theatre when the pictures of people in town and school children were shown. The novelty idea appealed to many. For the first time in history live fish were shipped by airplane last week when ten cans of bass were sent from the state fish hatchery at Sjpring Grove to Champaign. A big 12 passenger army plane from Chanute field at Rantoul was used to transport the cargo. The high school girls have been busy practicing for a tennis tournament. There were „ sixteen contestants in the tournament and on Monday night the number of contestants was reduced to eight. On Tuesday evening after the round of play, four of the superior players remained. On Wednesday evening the last day of the tournament, Marion Krause displayed her skill by defeating Dorothy Fisher by a score of 4 to 2 in a four game set. TWENTY - FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Oct. 21, 1943) New honors were bestowed ; on McHenry county's super- i intendent of schools, Roland. McCannon, when on last Friday he was elected president of the Northeastern division of the Illinois Education association. He succeeds Miss Helen Hunt. Pvt. Leander Lay received a medical discharge from the U.S. Army, due to an injured knee which he suffered several years ago. On Oct. 11 two local people were united in marriage in an early morning ceremony at San Buenaventura mission, Calif. Pvt. Ralph M. Justen, son of Stephen Justen of McHenry, now stationed at Ojai, Calif., and Miss Rosemary M. Wiser, daughter of the Joseph Wisers of Volo, who is now employed at Ventura, Calif., exchanged vows before Rev. Fr. Daniel Hurley. TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Oct. 9, 1958) William " Woody" Stamer, 11 of Pistakee Bay made his TV debut recently on Channel 7 as one of several north and northwest side youngsters to test drive a new midget racer for youngsters 4 to 14 years of age. The homecoming at McHenry high school which attracted hundreds of students and alumni chose Mary Etheridge and Terry Brady as the reigning pair. Sharing honors with the homecoming king and queen was Charlene Freund who was named queen of the band during half time of the game. In the absence of director Paul R. Yanda because of illness Barbara Krickl capably led the band. Mrs. Donald Richardson of John street found a money bag containing currency and silver on the street in McHenry. She turned it in at the Certified store where upon Ray Mendyke, manager, took the bag to the McHenry state bank and within minutes identification was made through a number on a deposit receipt issued earlier in the day. The money was returned to its rightful owner. Mr. and Mrs. Peter Adams, Sr., of Richmond will hold open house on Oct. 12 at the home in observance of their golden wedding anniversary. SCHOOL ISSUES POLICIES ON "SNOW BAYS'9 The Administration of McHenry School Districts 15 and 156 has announced the policies concerning the closing of school during '< snow days". The road conditions will be evaluated early each day and then on a day-to-day basis by the Director of Transportation and a decision to close the schools because of inclement weather will be made by 6 a.m. each day. The only exception to this rule would be those times when school would be in session and become shortened because weather conditions become worse. As soon as a decision is made concerning the closing of school, the following television and radio stations will be notified: WGN Radio, 720; WGN Television, Channel 9; WMAQ Radio 670; WNBQ Television, Channel 5; WCLR Radio, 850; WSTK Radio 105.5; WKRS Radio, 12.20. Because of the 6 a.m. decision time, any telephone calls concerning school closing made in the afternoon or evening hours would be fruitless. Please try to aid the Administration in relating this news to the public by not calling District 15 and 156 schools for information during snow storms. It is most important that all telephone lines be kept open for instant communication on weather conditions. FRI., OCT.. 25, 1968*- PLAINDEALER-PG. TV Time To Spare By GERALD ANDREWS - Retirement Adviser CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SERMON "Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him." This verse from James is pari; of the Bible Lesson - Sermon titled "Probation After Death" to be read in all Christian Science churches this Sunday. In Christian Science Society, Lincoln road and Eastwood lane, the service will begin at 10:30 a.m. One of the related passages to be read from the denominational textbook is the following: "During the sensual ages, absolute Christian Science may not be achieved prior to the change called death, for we have not the power to demonstrate what we do not under - stand. But the human self must be evangelized. This task God demands us to accept lovingly today, and to abandon so fast as practical the material, and to work out the spiritual which determines the outward and the actual." (Science and Health With Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy). Be fPise Shop In McHenry Proclamation WHEREAS, our Illinois Consitution is forcing our State Government into inefficient, uneconomical methods of working; and WHEREAS, there is a direct relationship between a state's constitution and its ability to attract industry, create jobs and reduce the cost of government; and WHEREAS, the rigidity of our antiquated, out-of -date State Constitution creates severe obstacles to the solution of many state and local problems, including those peculiar to our growing urban areas; and WHEREAS, Illinois citizens will vote at' the November general election on a proposed call for a Constitutional Convention at which possible changes in the State Constitution can be studied and recommended to voters for approval fit a subsequent election; now THEREFORE, I, Donald P. Dohertyi Mayor, of the great city of McHenry, do hereby proclaim the week of Oct. 20-26, 1968, as Blue Ballot Week and urge our citizens to utilize this period to become informed with regard to the proposed Constitutional Convention and with regard to the importance of voting on the Blue Ballot at the Nov. 5 general election. Programs for and About Seniors All of us have moments when we grumble that the whole world's agin u#^the government, our fellow citi z e n s , the l o c a l p r e s s , our neighbor's cat, even the weather! And I won't deny that a good honest grouse can o f t e n make a man feel quite cheerful again, as soon as he's let off steam. Another, more positive cure, is to have a look at what's being done for us by government agencies and others. Far from being neglected, it seems to me, we seniors may end up as the most studied, investigated, cosseted group of the lot-- or at least give the teenagers some competition in that respect. This thought is inspired by the August i s s u e of Harvest Years Magazine, which I've just finished reading. It's packed with information on the subject. 'l'o begin with, there's an a r t i c l e by Commisssioner William D. Bechill of the U.S. Administration on Aging, who tells what state and local programs are doing for our benefit, with funds made available under the Older Americans Act: providing social services, multipurpose centers, homemaker services, volunteer and social employment opportunities, recreation, transportation, jobs. It's an impressive list. Mr. Bechill goes on to cite r e s e a r c h and d e m o n s t r a t i o n programs, training programs, programs fot consultation with, and technical assistance to, private senior groups, and so on. Says the Commissioner, who's still not satisfied: "We have a long way yet to go. But I believe this particular moment holds more promise for older people than any previous timie in our history--for we can, and will, do more." So much for the government, the story doesn't end there. Next I turned to an article called "'Good Neighbors' Help Each Other," describing one community's way of solving two problems at once: the problem of help needed in private homes, and that of jobs for older women. A good illustration, I thought, for Commissioner Bechill's general survey. And finally the Harvest Years' educational series, "A Time For Learning," devotes its August article to gerontology, the science of aging: what the schools and universities are they're coming up with, their conclusions about aging, and also steps they're taking to involve seniors themselves in the field. It all makes interesting reading. If you'd like a copy of this issue of Harvest Years, send 50c to: Harvest Years Publishing Company, Dep't. A, 104 East 40th Street, New York, N.Y. 10016.

Old Fruit Oranges are about the oldest fruit known to man. At first, according to history, no one thought to eat them, probably because the first oranges were about the size of a berry and quite bitter. ATTEND CONVENTION William Diedrich, of B & D Automotive Supply, and his wife returned home Sunday evening from three days' attendance at the tenth annual convention of the Automotive Wholesalers of Illinois, which was held in Springfield.
