. PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 9,1973 Grandma Sez , MEET THE WINNERS - Mayor Joseph B. Stanek presents three winners in the costume contest held in conjunction with the Halloween party at East campus last week. Their identity was unknown to the Jaycee auxiliary, which co-sponsored the event with the City Council. About 450 youngsters att^iti?»d the party, which may become an annual celebration of Halloween in McHenry. Hal-o'-'een is gone an' we're on th' way toward Thanksgivin' day. Th' year rolls around so fast, these days, e'en th' young feel like it's here an' gone afore ye know it. Seems t' me that it's th' fast pace we're a livin', this modern race t' git somewhere, an' then sit down. I can't see this generation livin' long, like the one afore us. They, a great many o' 'em, reached ripe years afore they passed on, an' God bless 'em, a good many made th' effort t' be able t' do fer 'em selves, pretty well, wi' a little help. Th' spirit o' independence beats strong in th' hearts o' th' elders, now th' gran'mas and gran'pas, an' I wonder how independent will be, th' young folk now in their youth, not a knowin' how it gits, as time takes its toll, an' weakens th' limbs an' sometimes th' mind. It grieves me heart t' hear o' so many o' th' senior generation, left alone t' fend fer 'em selves. This granny's a pretty lucky oP lady, in that r'spect, an' it ain't a day go by wi'out a thankful little prayer in me heart. Here I go, talkin' about th' late years, but this time an' season, wi' th' beauty o' nature, glorious in th' termination o' th' fertile fresh green o' summer, magnificent in th' ripeness o' maturity bring t' mind th' mellowin' years o' life, fer so many o' us, these days. I wonder how many o' us realize that th' work in research has given many o' us elders a good many years o' pretty fair livin', affordin' us, who may not ha' made it, a little longer lease on life. A trip, last weeeknd, south- westward in th' state, revealed breath-takin' beauty an' reminded us that we live in this lovely state, wi' its rivers, gently flowin', polluted, though they may be, an' its prairies, verdant growin', th' fields brown, now, wi' th' stubble o' th' after-harvest, lfendin' an' atmosphere o' th' job done, fer this year. God's been good t' us/ ne'er th' less, an' we c'n be thankful fer many things, so far, an' pray that th' ones control o' th' material destiny o' th' country, may be guided by a true Christian endeavor t' build a secure future fer us, an' th' rest o' th' world.
