PAGE 10 - PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY. JANUARY 14, 1977 CHURCH SERVICES SOUTH OF THE SAHARA Does He iong for the hot breezes and wide spaces sbuth of the Sahara? Can he remember the feeling of free air rushing past, as he ran with his fellows? «• Oh ts a lovely zoo, wide and airy. The giraffe's home auplic<.ies his native habitat But, as he nibbles among the tree- tops, I wonder. DoesJie wish for a quiet stream? I know w^at it's like to feel displaced. When first I came to this country, i was not at home with the language and unfamiliar h its customs. Often I felt confused and bewildered. The cne place that was no stranger to me was my church, h-^re. tiithough the words were foreign, I recognized well-known melodies and litanies and the sure feeling of God's love. If you feel disturbed and disoriented by events in your life, turn to the one place that knovfs no aliens. Your church has a' welcome for everyone. God's love is universal.

Robert Weber i Retires From McHenry Bank An historic chapter in the chronicle of an area bank ended recently when Robert Weber, a long time resident of McHenry, retired from active service Jan. 1. Mr. Weber was an employee of McHenry State bank for over fifty-one years, retiring from its highest position, chairman of the Executive committee His retirement completed an Horatio Alger climb up the ladder of success, from bank clerk to vice-president to president to his final chair­ manship. With retirement, Mr. Weber plans on .devoting more time to his hobbies, which include gardening and stamp collec­ ting. "Gardening is my major hobby," he said. "But I also enjoy traveling, and riding around in Wisconsin just looking at the scenery." "He also loves to listen to classical music," Mrs. Weber said. "He also loves football and baseball. He's been a Cub fan all his life " In his fifty-one years of service, Mr. Weber has many fond memories of the bank. But the two incidents which stand out most vividly in his mind are two rather unusual ones. ® "I remember my first year at the bank, we were held up and robbed," he said. "And then there was the time during the depression when the bank was closed for a few days." Awards for his many years of service have poured into the Weber household. "He received a fifty year pin from the Illinois Bankers association," Mrs. Weber said proudly. "And the employees of the bank gave him a television set for a going-away present." Mr. Weber has always been very interested in the youth of McHenry He knows the name of every bank employee. He is also in favor of the growth the city has made in recent years. "I know there's both good and bad about it," he said. "But it's good for the businesses, and the community is prospering, so I think the growth is goofr." What's the best thing he has to say about retirement? "I don't have to worry about getting to work on time," he laughed In actuality, Mr. Weber isn't exactly going to enjoy the leisurely life of the retired person. He is still active in the bank through his role as a member of the board. Mr. Weber is up for reelec­ tion as a director Wednesday, but as a bank spokesman said, "He will be reelected for sure. He'll keep contributing to the bank in a meaningful way even though he is retired." Even though he still will be on the board of directors, Mr. Weber won't be showing his smiling face at the bank every morning. And for that, and a lot of other reasons, ^the bank employees and citizens of McHenry are unanimous in this feeling: Robert Weber will be missed. RETIRES Robert S. Bradley, has taken early retirement from his position as vice-president and treasurer of Modine Manufacturing Co., to pursue personal interests, it has been announced. He concluded thirteen years of association with the company at the beginning of this year.
