) < 1 Mrs. Dan Cameron Geft), co-chairman of Holiday Hospitality Day, Oct. 1, given for Memorial Hospital by the Woman's aux­ iliary, joins Mrs. Vernon Barber in displaying two of the milk cans they have helped paint and decorate. The Farmer's Market, to be in the James VV. McCulloh home (open to the public that day) will have the cans and many, many other items for sale. Holiday Event Is Benefit For Area Hospital You will meet everybody - including Farmer Brown - when you visit the "Farmer's Mar­ ket", one of the many features of Holiday Hospitality Day, Wednesday, Oc. 1. The day is presented by the Woman's aux­ iliary of Memorial Hospital for McHenry County each year to raise money for hospital equip­ ment and to augment the build­ ing fund. A Farmer's Market is a spot in which the housewife, cooking expert or anyone looking for a hostess gift can satisfy any desire. For the antique lover there are old iron skillets of all sizes carefully wire brushed. Gear wheels (excellent for the flower arranger) and flat pieces of iron for candle holders and flower arranging will be nearby. One important item that will greet the appraising eye is the collection of large milk cans, hand painted and having the Wil­ liamsburg eagle with flag de- calcomania on them. One milk can is in antiqued gold with large spread wing gold eagle and gold stars. The cans come in blue, burnt orange, black, white and the antiqued gold. What will catch the decor­ ator's eye for her kitchen are boxes of baggies and plastic wrap each covered in a color­ ful contact paper so durable that future "purchases can be taken from their boxes and put in the covered containers. They should last for years. Their corner of the Farmer's Market will be the gayest in the place! The herb garden has not been forgotten. Home grown herbs of all kinds will be packaged in attractive bottles too gay to be put in a cabinet! Live potted herbs for the kitchen window- sill will be sold in bright, col­ orful coffee mugs. The dining room table has been included - washable bur­ lap place mats, available in five different colors - natural, gold, green, blue or coral, are extra large, hand hemmed and have attractive hand drawn work in the center of each. They could grace any party table. Flat, 3 inch in diameter, key chains have been painted in all colors with whimsical, pretty or primitive designs on them. They'll be easy to find in those busy handbags. Debbie Varese of McHenry, a graduate of Mar­ ion „ high school and a^ art / . student, is doing some of the key chains. Especially for those "green thumb" experts, fresh rainwat­ er is being gathered for use on house plants this winter and will be sold in attractive gal­ lon containers. There will be hand-decorated wall switch plates (double or single) - some done in deco- page - burlap hugable animal pincushions - stenographer's note books covered in gayly printed fabrics for use on the kitchen desk for those "must be remembered" items-and a few old wrought iron flower de­ sign wall hangings. No farmer's market would be complete without fresh things from the garden. Fresh apples, tomatoes t ( attractively pack­ aged), squash, zuccini, etc., will be everywhere. Homemade French salad dressing will be sold to take tare of the to­ matoes and greens on the din­ ner table. Good old cider by the jug and by the drink - plus the appropriate doughnuts will be nearby. Gourds, pumpkins (Halloween won't be far away!) and Indian corn will be in abun­ dance. The birds haven't been for­ gotten - unique bird feeders, recommended by the Audubon society that can be folded flat and put away for the summer have been made in large num­ bers to meet what is expected to be a big demand for them. | Legion Auxiliary News i UNIT 491 by Kay Luing McHenry council joint instal­ lation was held in Huntley, on Saturday night, Aug. 9. v Those installed were pres­ ident, Mrs. Robert (Audree) Wagner of Cary, first vice- president, Mrs. Roy (Laur­ etta) Homo, McHenry; second vice-president, Mrs. Charles (Marion) Karlove, Crystal Lake; historian, Mrs. Gordon (Becky) Gabli, Fox River Grove; secretary, Apn Smith, Cary; treasurer, Mrs. Willard (Faye) Carlson, Algonquin; chaplain, Mrs. Robert (Mable) Schultz, H u n t l e y , s e r g e a n t - a t - a r m s ; Mrs. Joseph (Margaret) Mikota, McHenry; assistant sergeant- at-arms, Mrs. Eldon (Marguer­ ite) Moncelle, Hebron.

A very enjoyable evening was had by all in attendance, v ^ CONTACT LENSE VALUE The decision as to whether or not contact lenses should be worn should be made by an eye doctor according to the Ill­ inois Society for the Preven­ tion of Blindness. The use of contact lenses involves placing a foreign object in direct con­ tact with delicate eye tissures. Properly fitted contact lenses, worn as directed, can be com- forable and safe, however. Im­ proper care of the lenses and poor wearing habits have been known to cause permanent dam­ age with loss of vision, the society warns. If, after the breaking-in period, any dis­ comfort in wearing contact len­ ses is experienced they should be removed and an eye doc­ tor seen immediately. GRASSHOPPERS Grasshoppers seem to have survived the earlier rains suc­ cessful^ and are present in some legume and soybean fields. They can also be found in fence rows and ditch banks. If large numbers are observed, spray marginal soybean rows and adjacent grassy areas with 3/4 -pound of carbaryl (Sevin) or 1-^ pounds of toxaphene per acre. County Dairy Princess To Compete In State FAIR HISTORY RECALLED BY MURRAY HANES Murray S. "Hanes, retired Springfield architect, remem­ bers a lot about the Illinois State Fair's history. Why not? As a toddler he went to his first Fair there in 1887 with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. S.J. Hanes--and he's mis­ sed only two of these annual expositions since then. The first was in ,1910 when he was away attending summer school and the second was in 1918 when he was in the World War I American Expeditionary Force in France, he recalls. Hanes remembers when the State Fair was held on grounds now occupied by Sacred Heart Academy and Convent, 1200 West Washington street, "and a big beer garden surrounded by a 7-foot board fence was located south of the fair­ grounds." This wasinthe'80's. In the '90's after the Fair had been removed to its pre­ sent site, Hanes remembers that it stood in "open country" north of the city and the Wa­ bash operated shuttle trains 'carrying visitors between the grounds and Springfield. Pre­ viously an earthen roadway that turned into a quagmire in rainy weather, what is now 8th street, was paved early in the '90's Hanes said. As chairman of the Sangamon county board of supervisors in 1925, he recalled that he was instrumental in thwarting moves to transfer the Fair to Chicago or Kankakee. The Springfield site had been pro­ vided by the people with a FRI. AUGUST 15, 1969 - PLAINDEALEK - PG. 3 PATRICIA RILEY BETROTHAL ANNOUNCED -- Dr. and Mrs. Robert Riley of 809 W.

No definite; wedding date has been set. proviso that it would be the permanent location. "It appeared that the legal blockade to the proposed re­ moval could be nullified if the supervisors' chairman signed the bill of sale," Hanes chuck­ led. "This I refused to do and the scheme fell through." He also pointed out that hi£ first architect's office was in the former location of Spring­ field* s historic Lincoln & Hern- don law firm and that he oc­ cupied it for 72 years, moving out in June, 1967, making way for restoration of the location at 6th and Adams streets.
