Wonder Lake 653-7699 Items Of Historic Interest Receive Widespread Comment At this year's Hospitality Day sponsored for the benefit of Memorial Hospital for McHen- - ry County, many items of his­ toric interest were displayed near the antique jail cells in the Court House. These items were on loan from the McHen­ ry County Historical society, and as a matter of interest to those who viewed these items, and of credit to their donors, the society lists the items of donors in this area. Mrs. Willis H. Gardner of Solon Mills donated the 100- year-old brass, long-handled bed-warmer, and also the 90- year-olrl ting lantern which had b*n used to hang on a tree while skating and also to mark soft spots in the ice. The lead ice mold in the shape of the Battleship Maine (1898) was donated by Mrs. Hazel C. Ewell, of Ringwood. The over 100-year old hand­ made wooden shovel was donat­ ed by Miss Nellie Doherty of McHenry.1 Awards Ceremony For 4-H Members Qf County Miss Malvina Breyer of Mc­ Cullom Lake gave the child's wood and wicker rocking chair, which is over 80 years old. Mrs. Urbin V. Comes, for­ merly of McHenry, and the late Dr. Comes gave the green met­ al doll bed with bedding, which is over 80 years old. The folding tin school lunch box from the early 1900's was donated by Mr. and Mrs. Fran­ cis Muzzy of Marengo, former­ ly of Ringwood. These items are but a small part of the collection of in­ teresting historic items which had been given to the Histori­ cal society, and for which the society badly needs a space large enough to display them to advantage. Many other trea­ sures are being held for the society, awaiting the day when there is a museum in which to display them. The McHenry County Histor­ ical society wishes also to hear from any person who has in his possession or has knowledge of the whereabouts of paintings, etchings, busts or other rep­ licas of persons from this area, who contributed to a significant extent to the growth and development of the area, either financially in the civic fielo or in the fields of education or manufacturing. Question­ naires are available at the so­ ciety headquarters, or may be obtained from Mrs. Dorothy McEachren, president of the so­ ciety. The National Society of the Colonial Dames of Amer­ ica, in conjunction with the Smithsonian Institute in Wash­ ington, D.C., is compiling an index for future use by his­ torians and researchers, of the existence and availability of material of this type which portrays persons of promin­ ence in the history of the coun­ try. They have asked the Coun­ ty Historical society for its help in locating these items. They are not asking that such items be donated, but rather that information as to the whereabouts of such material be listed with them. United States will come to Chi­ cago, Nov. 29-Dec. 3 to parti­ cipate in this event. A 4-H member must be the top person in the state or country in cer­ tain programs to qualify for this award. Bill Johnson, Marengo, was chosen to attend the American Youth Foundation Leadership' Training camp on a Danforth scholarship. This is limited to four members in the state show­ ing outstanding leadership. Jeanette McCullough, Har­ vard, was recognized as being an outstanding 4-H alumni. This award is given to a former 4-H member recommended by lea­ ders, 4-H members, and peo­ ple in the community as one who has contributed to the com­ munity and 4-H program. Bonnie Ocock, Union, and Sandy Scott, Richmond, were given the Key club award. This recognizes general outstanding work in the 4-H program. Many additional 4-H mem­ bers were honored for their work in projects and activi­ ties, contributions to the pro­ gram and general, leadership. The 4-H program-In McHenry county is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the University of Illinois through the Cooperative Exten­ sion service.
