STATE FARM INSURANCE COMPANIES HOME OFFICES: BIOOMINGTON. ILLINOIS STATE INSURANCE BARBERSHOPPERS RECALL YEAR OF FOUNDING IN '49 February is a significant month to Woodstock Barbershoppers. It was in this month that the idea for a local men's chorus took root in 1949. In May of that year, the chorus had built its membership and its repertoire to the extent that it was able to give its first program and secure its charter from the S.P.E.B.- S.Q.S.A. (The Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barbershop Quartet Singing in America). Before it went into eclipse a few years later, this group produced some outstanding "Barbershoppers". Some became famous in quartet work when they moved to other sections of the country. Lyle Pilcher made his mark as coach for such quartets as the International Champion Four Renegades and the 1968 Illinois State Chorus Champion, the Arlintones from Arlington Heights. In February of 1968 the group was reactivated with Karl Koch as president and Miltoii Decker of Cary as director. The Woodstock Barbershoppers are anxious to build their membership sufficiently to be able to exchange their license for a full charter from the national S.P.E.B.S.Q.S.A. They lack only a few singers to achieve this goal Membership is not limited to Woodstock residents. Chapter has members who come from as far as Waukegan. Any man over 16 years of age, who enjoys singing, is eligible. The next scheduled appearance is for the Methodist Men's club on April 1. Although the chorus holds itself in readine'ss for appearances any place at any time, tKis performance is especially significant. It will be in the nature of a "thank you" gesture for the use of the practice room which the Methodist church has made available for the last six months. The chorus meets there every Monday at 8 p.m. and all interested men are welcome to attend.

Fischer, Hutchinson, Minn.: I remember the good old days on the farm when herding cows was a regular chore. As soon as a crop was off the field, the cows were let out to clean whatever left that was eatable. Feed for livestock was scarce in those days and every bit had, to be salvaged. There were no fences in those days, so it was our job to keep the cows within the confines of a particular field. After school, Saturdays, yes, even on Sundays we had to herd cows. It wasn't too difficult because the cattle were usually hungry enough to spend their time eating instead of running around and when they started wandering it was time to bring them home. We would bring a book or a game and spend the time pleasantly absorbed while escaping some of the more unpleasant tasks at home. Some times we would become a little too absorbed and look up to see the cows in a nearby cornfield which involved a merry chase to get them back where they belonged. We usually had the help of a well-trained cattle dog who would round them up for us. Once in a while, he would get too enthusiastic and stampede the herd and they would head for home at full speed. Spring was a pleasant time to herd cows. When fall brought the cold winds, it became quite uncomfortable and we were glad when snow came to cover the fields and end our chore for the season. 2® ?o® hIA.c*ed|t "•--"".CARDS I 8 Pale - 16 oz. & w/GASOLINE PURCHASE iS, McHenry Market Place CITY POLICE INVESTIGATE SIXCRASHES Numerous minor accidents have been investigated by city police.

Family Can Enjoy Fine T ableware Beautifully-set tables are a source of pride for special occasions--but they're meant for family enjoyment, too. Many a homemaker finds that a table set with lovely accessories has a beneficial _ effect on family dining. The woman with a growing family often cites the influence on her children when, instead of "any old flatware," she uses her sterling silver. Not only do children learn to use and appreciate fine table accessories, but such an atmosphere actually seems to promote better manners. It's a wise mother, of course, "who keeps her fine china and crystal safe out of the reach of toddlers and young children, but once they're grown to the stage where they can be trusted with breakables, there's no reason why these beautiful things can't be enjoyed by the whole family. In the case of sterling silver flatware, there's little need to worry about wear and tear. And despite its seeming fragility, it's durable. Constant use, in fact, helps sterling grow lovelier, as any display of antique silver proves. Gifts of beautiful table- ware aren't the prerogative of the bride alone. For instance, homemakers who weren't lucky enough to receive a usable set of sterling when they married, are often able to add to their set later on. There's no need to be shy one place setting when it can mean the difference between a table set beautifully for the whole family and one at which one member has to "make do" with other flatware. Serving pieces, too, such as tablespoons, serving forks and ladles, are often the missing links in an otherwise usable set of solid silver. With a few adroit hints to family or friends, these items can be gradually acquired as birthday or anniversary gifts. These days, when pretty tables are more and more part of the scene, lovely table accessories should be on view FRI. FEB. 28, 1969 - PLAINDEALER - PG. 3 Little Girls Step Softly, Prettily, As Pumps, Sandals Gain in Favor Soft and pretty is the leather shoe look for little girls this spring. Toelines generally are softly rounded, and even in school and play styles, a lower cut is starting to replace the sporty hightongued look. Keeping to the soft, pretty mood are American shoe leathers and colors. Pastels are pale and creamy -- pink, blue, yellow. Deeper shades are clear but not hard -- among th6m, red, lemon, emerald green and electric blue. Lots of brown is in prospect -- an integral part of the leather look. Choice of leathers is wide, with smooth, grained, brushed. antique, lustre and patent in the picture. Pumps go light and breezy, making their point with cutouts! Appearing at .the vamp or side, these openings might be geometric or in petal designs. When the pump is closed, it's trimmed with buttons, bows and appliques. Other slip-ons keep to the line of hardware and high tongues. Sandals return to favor, showing straps mostly in narrow widths. T's, crossovers and halters appear. Laced, leather oxfords offer many fashion treatments: saddles and kilties, spectatorties in varied color combinations, soft ribbon laces. The leather moccasin remains the classic. This spring it features modified hardware, kiltie fringe or tassels, monk straps and hand-sewn stitching. There's a choice of toe shapes -- squared or rounded. Back on the little-girl fashion scene is the leather ballet slipper. It comes in various colors, is flat-heeled and may as often as possible. And who but the family is most entitled to enjoy them? have a bow or cockade • trim. > Play-minded sandals coijie in bared styles with a strippy look or sporty air.
