•S3 i* i)' «v f t - 7: HERE AND THERE IN BUSINESS The McHenry State bank has passed a milestone among financial institutions, with assets totaling more than $100,000,000. The bank has been In existence since lMt, and continues to serve the needs qf the community from its location at the corner of Elm street and Green street. New Milestone a ^ Achieved By McHenry Bank Back in 1906, when McHenryites Simon Stoffel, Joseph W. Freund, Frank Wattles, and George and S.B. Hanley among others, established the McHenry State bank, they could never have imagined the growth which has taken place in this city, as well as in the bank theyA helped found. Yet, just seventy years after the bank's doors first opened, the city of McHenry is prospering, and McHenry State bank is prospering right along with it. Recently, the financial in­ stitution passed a milestone of sorts, with total bank assets surpassing the $100,000,000 mark. The $100 million milestone is certainly a long way from the $31,988 which the bank started with under its first president, Edwin Wagner. But through* community confidence in the bank, and quality leadership provided by bank presidents such as Dr. C.H. Fegers, Parker Webster, Carl Stinger, Simon Stoffel, Gerald Carey, Robert L. Weber, and present president, Thomas F. Bolger, the bank is, more than ever, a mainstay of the community. V • In noting the milestone just reached, the present bank president reflected on some of the beliefs and philosophies which the bank has maintained throughout the years. "I believe the! milestone reached is an indication of the McHenry community having confidence in the businesses in our town," Bolger said. "The people prefer to have their money be put back into their town. The deposits we receive are put right back into the community," he added. "There is a philosophy which we live by here that the bank is built on service," Bolger ex­ plained. "We believe that when people come into a bank, they come for financial service, not for give-aways.X*erald Carey was the chief executive officer of the bank for forty years, and he believed in that philosophy, and I do too. * "McHenry State bank achieved its present position by serving the McHenry com­ munity, and believing that the most important account in the bank is the one we are serving -v right now," he explained. "We feel we can do a better job just serving the McHenry com­ munity. We don't believe that 'big is better', and we have no intention of changing the philosophy of, the bank." Bolger did note that some of the growth the bank has ex­ perienced can be attributed to inflation, plus the fact that during strenuous financial periods, persons tend to save money rather than spend it. While the bank's location at the corner of Green and Elm is familiar to everyone in the area, it wasn't always there. When the bank was founded in 1906, the building, was located in the Brefeld building on the south side of Main street. In 1914, the bank was moved to a Stroke Club Of County In Discussions The second meeting of die Stroke club was held Friday, June 24, at Easter Seal. Sandy Barcus, a registered physical therapist from Easter Seal, gave a talk on the im­ portance of daily exercise for stroke victims and guidelines cm safer and easier methods in performing daily routine ac­ tivities. An open discussion regarding individual problems and ideas followed. Arlette Rietesel of McHenry then gave a personal account of her accomplishments and problems relating to her stroke, stressing the importance of individual worthwhile ac­ tivities and goals throughout the continuing process of recovery. She also noted the Wearing one shirt over another, instead of a sweater, is a style picked up from a European country. The top shirt should be collarless. Quilts are "in" for the bedroom this season-better than a spread and better than a blanket-so if there is one of grandmother's in the chest, get it out or better yet, if you have the time, make one.
