c PAGE 2-PLAINDEALER-WED.. JANUARY 13, 1971 Historical Society In 0p® Door Review Of Recent Gifts Hear T^Taik FIVE GENERATIONS -- Representatives of five generations of the Silk family enjoyed a family gathering recently. They included the youngest member, Wendy Sue Dose, born June 6, 1970, held by her mother, Norma Mae (Swearingen) Dose of Chicago. Sitting next to them is the great-great grandmother, Mrs. Mary Ellen Silk, 86, of Chicago, and standing in back are the great-grandfather, William J. Silk,. and the baby's grandmother, Mrs. Mary Swearingen, both of Wonder Lake. Again this Christmas season, Loren Thompson of Thompson road, Woodstock presented a large evergreen wreath to hang on the door of the McHenry County Historical society head­ quarters. The wreath was in memory of Mr. Thompson's mother, Cora Carr Thompson, one of the county's earliest res­ idents. She arrived inRingwood in the year 1831, from York­ shire, England, coming with her grandparents, Matha and Sarah Clark Carr. Other recent gifts to the Mc­ Henry County Historical so­ ciety, include, from Chester Gould, an autographed copy of his* book, "The Celebrated Cases of Dick Tracy". The Gen­ ealogy of the Marum family was given to the society by Edward C. Marum and Miriam Marum De Breau, now of Des Plafnes; also the christening coat made for the father of the donors, William Joseph Marum of Woodstock, in 1896. The so­ ciety is interested in receiving femily histories of early res­ idents of the county, as there is no one volume where all the names of early settlers can be found. The society's file of names is growing, through clip­ ping the obituaries of everyone noted as having been born in the county. Forms for making a family tree will be furnished to those requesting them. Phil Frederick, of Crystal Lake, donated a history of the Congregational Church of Crys­ tal Lake, an Orange and Black bulletin for 1923-1924, a com- v mencement program for the May 12, 1924 Crystal Lake High School graduating'Class, and a program for the class of 1912. Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Owens of McHenry gave the society trousseau and wedding clothes in the name of Mr. Owen's moth­ er, Mrs. Allen Robert Owen, who was Ethel May Phillips of Hebron. Their marriage took place in Hebron in 1910,andthe wedding dress of lace inserts was made by Marshall Field & Co., as was a brown silk dress and an afternoon dress of sheer material. The trous­ seau also included her wedding nightgown and camisole, em­ broidered with monogram, and wedding slippers and openwork stockings. Mr. Owen's wedding suit . has striped trousers, waistcoat and Prince Edward style frock coat of fine covert cloth. All the clothes are in fine condition. The McHenry County Histor­ ical society welcomes donations of interesting memorabilia of the county's past, and also the interest of citizens in creating a museum to house them. At the last meeting of the board of directors it was voted that annual membership dues be raised as of May 1, when all membership dues should be re­ newed. JANU.

Christmas was lacking for many of us. were all so busy trying to select the right kind of gifts and have elegant decorations that we forgot what we were really celebrating--and that A was the birth of our Lord who l ived a simple sinless l ife and who taught us that love should be the most important thing in our lives. And that'love is the kind of love that forgets self and thinks of kindness and comfort to others. If we follow the .teachings of Jesus Christ we will learn that happiness is found, not by demanding things for ourselves or trying to buy good will and- love with material things, but by unselfishness and the ex­ ample we set by the" way w^ live; by our thoughtfulness of others, by the kindness and tolerance we show to people who are less fortunate than we or to those who are dependent upon us. Do we control our tempers and keep back the hasty words that are so devastating, when we become irritated" Do we have patience with our chil­ dren and try to build up con­ fidence in them or do we scar them with words such as "stupid" or "idiot'"5 Do we tr^r-to discover the good in others Jor are we eager to find their .Faults and gossip about ttem"5 pq we find hidden insults in remarks when none were meant' - • A little art*c4e,by an anon­ ymous, writer comes to my mind when I think about these things. Here it is: ^ "Its a funny thing buf^true that folks you don't like don't like you. I don't know why this should be so, but just the same ^always know, if I am sour friends are few; if I am friend­ ly folks are too. Sometimes I get up in the rn wishing I was never born. I make a cross remark or two and then my family wishes too t h a t I h a d g o n e s o m e o t h e r place instead of showing them my face. Bat let me change my little tune and sing and smile, then pretty soom the folks around me sing and smile, I. guess 'twas catching, all the while. Yes it is a funny thing but true that folks you like will sure like you." This is one thing we might think on when making our re­ solutions for the New Year. Happy New Year.

Very full pants suits of materials such as satin or chif­ fon are for evening wear. Many girls are buying pants which harmonize with mini- garments that they own. They wear the mini-dresses over the pants and have an up-to-date costume. The new length for skirts, which seems to be catching on in some areas,is the "Gibson" look, influenced by the Gibson Girl pictures that were so pop­ ular in the early nineteen hun­ dreds. The skirt hems are several inches above the ankle. Another popular length is just about the top of th|knee. Boots are worn with practical­ ly everything. Heavy clothes call for heavy shoes or boots.

Wine Enhances Beans and Franks Pants suits are smart when the jacket and pants are made of the same material. The jack* ets should cover the hips. One of the easiest ways to discover how greatly wine improves the taste of food is to combine it with some everyday foods. The enhancement of their familiar flavors is immediately not­ iceable. A cook becomes an immediate success. A casserole of baked beans and frankfurters is one good ex­ ample. This is the kind of quickly prepared dinner that many young wives serve when they hurry home from work or com­ munity activities to find a hungry husband waiting. Maybe he has brought guests with him. With a few extra touches, the beans and frankfurters can be turned into a very special din­ ner. California red dinner wine, such as a Burgundy, or a white dinner wine, like California Sauterne, will flavor the franks and provide a little extra sauce for the beans. There will still be enough wine in the bottle to serve with the meal. In a situation like this, wine is doubly welcome -- as the festive beverage and as a flavoring -- to set the mood for an extra-special dinner. WINE SAUCED BEANS AND FRANKFURTERS (Serves 4) 8 frankfurters 2 cans (1-lb.) barbecue </3 cup California red or or baked beans white dinner wine Prepared mustard • 1/3 cup grated^eddar cheese Place frankfurters in saucepan. Add wine^^over and heat to simmering. Turn off heat and let stand a few minutes to plump up. Cut a lengthwise gash in top of each frankfurter. Turn 1 can of beans into casserole or baking pan. Arrange half the frankfurters on top, and add half the wine from cooking. Cover with remaining beans; place remaining frankfurters^iftop and pour on rest of wine. Bake in moderately hot oven m5 degrees) until hot and bubbly, about 20 minutes. Brush slits in top of frankfurters with mustard and fill with cheese. Return to oven about 5 minutes, until cheese melts.
