FIFTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of January 16, 1930) Kenneth E. Cristy of Ringwood was elected a director of the McHenry> County Farm Bureau at,an annual meeting of the organization held in Crystal Lake. Harold Cash of Harvard, "formerly a member of the executive committee was elected president of the organization. C.P. Draper, county .veterinarian, has announced that block testing was to start in McHenry county. By block testing Dr. Draper explained that five men would be put to work. Each man goes into a township and all herds that have not been tested in the last sixty days will be tested in the township before tire tester leaves the township. Charles W. Gibbs of McHenry will be a candidate for treasurer of the county, having been endorsed at a meeting of the County Farmers Republican club recently. FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Janaury 18, 1969) The trick weather of the paSt weekend made traveling perilous and almost impossible late Sunday afternoon as people sought lodgings for the night in the city rather than travel in the blinding snow flurries. The snow and the rain which fell froze as temperatures lowered, leaving the roads in a dangerous condition. Bus travel was halted altogether Sunday night. The $127,000 dam south of McHenry is nearing com­ pletion as finishing touches are being made these winter days. Spanning the Fox river, the construction project of the Illinois Division of Waterways replacesUhe old "flashboard controlled" dam. The new dam Wy&s constructed to the height of the old flash boards, and includes an elaborate flood gate system to control the river flow in the event off high water. Some years ago during the water period, the old darnStearly went out. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of January 13, 1955) It was a "red letter" day 'or the McHenry Township ard when members made final payment on a road bond issue of ten years ago for $80,000. The program was approved by a vote of the public at: a time when Joe : "Butch" Freund of John­ sburg was road com­ missioner. The board is now free of bonded indebtedness, having paid off a previous bond issue of about $60,000- five years ago. Under the road programs, almost all oL the blacktop roads which are now giving so much pleasure to motorists were com­ pleted. Wonder Lake continues to be the fastest growing community in the county,, according to a survey recently completed. Only a few sections of the county were not included in the review, in *1953, Wonder Lake saw the erection of 211 new homes and while the figure dropped to 122 in 1954, the total of 333 was still well above that in any other section. TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of January 14, 1970) Sibre Whiting and Frank Rezabek, assessors for McHenry and Nunda townships, respectively, have offered information for senior citizens concerning the homestead exemption forms. Allowances are made for a $1,000 exemption of the assessed-'valuation of a house, duplex or apartment building to qualified persons. Forms are available at the offices of the two assessors. Qualifications state that one must apply on the forms now available; either husband or wife must be 65 years of age as of Jan. }, 1970; they must live in the building a major portion of the year; they - must be sole owners of the real property, as joint tenants, or tenants in common with each other and no other person or persons; also that they must hold title to the property as of Jan. 1, 1970. Judge William Carroll ruled that there Was no basis for complaint in what amounted to a test Case in which State's Attorney William J. Cowlin, representing the people of the state, charged unlawful authority |by the city of icHenry I over several ..akeland -4?ark and 'Lakeland Shores units.
