SILVER ANNIVERSARY Seventy-five friends, family members and neigh­ bors gathered at the Larry Wiedenhoft home Saturday evening to surprise Joe and Beverly Steinmetz for their twenty-fifth wedding an­ niversary. Joe and Bev were married in Iowa Feb. 17, 1955. Bev's mother, Mrs. Brand, drove from Wisconsin for the festivities. A delicious buffet supper was served, co-hosted "by Keith and Debbie (Stein­ metz) Winn and the Wiedenhofts. A beautifully decorated cake was cut by the honored couple and served to the guests. A highlight of the evening was a "mock" wedding complete with a gun-totin' father of the bride. Par­ ticipants in the "wedding" were Marge and Shorty Sherwin, Barb Crawford, Bev Hardie, Ruth and Joe Anzinger, Larry* Becker, Dee and Larry Wiedenhoft, Ben Jacobs, Sr. and Art Christopher. The wedding party grouped around Joe and Bev while they repeated their vows before the minister. It was a lot of fun and everyone had a good laugh. We all wish Joe and Bev many more years of hap­ piness.

Howe, an attorney of Coldwater, Mich.k This- popular amusement hall, located at I he corner of Fox and Charles streets, McHenry, was given by Mr. Saa} as part payment for the Carbedor apartments located in Chicago.

The com­ memoration of the act dates back to Sept. 19, 1929, when young Pries saved his sister, Eleanor, aged 4 years, from drowning in Lake Geneva. FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of February 22, 1940) An overwhelming turnout, over 4,000 people gathered in the new state armory at Waukegan in tribute to and promising support to Richard J. Lyons, candidate for governor, and C. Weyland Brooks, candidate for United States senator.

The local high school in­ strumental organizations, under the direction of Paul R. Yanda, will present whaW is ardently expected to be one of the finest concerts ever produced by these organizations. The program will consist of numbers by the band, the orchestra, the string and brass quartets, which are very fine en­ sembles, and numbers by several soloists, the more talented members of the band and orchestra. TWENTY FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of February 17, 1955) , The present class on farm policies of the adult farm class has successfully passed the half way mark. Consistant attendance in spite of bad weather speaks well for the ideas presented by the instructor, Farm Advisol* William Tammeus. The outline of the courses, according to William Pictor, local vocational agriculture teacher, was accepted by the local advisory council last fall. The background for it came mainly from at­ tendance at a course offered by the University of Wisconsin last summer. A record number of 261 Scouts and their families attended the father-son banquet held at the local high school cafeteria. Mark Vycital, a Star Scout, served as master of ceremonies. 2 - PAGE 3 - PLAINDEALER - TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of February 20, 1970) At the Lakemoor village1 council meeting, the board instructed Baxter and W o o d m a n , v i l l a g e engineers, to file a form applying for a federal grant to assist a sewer project plan.

Congressman Robert McClory announced that he has been advised of a major new postal service program that will expand home deliveries in Lake and McHenry counties.

Richmond, Spring Grove, Wonder Lake and Island Lake are included in this program. Slate Recycling Day Saturday, Feb. 16, is the regularly scheduled third- Saturday-of-every-month recycling drive. It will be held in its usual location, the southeast corner of the McHenry Market Place parking lot, from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m, with members of Boy Scout Troop 145 on hand to help unload cars and see that the properly prepared material brought to the drive is moved along toward the next step in being recycled. Recycling helps save natural resources, saves space in landfills, and aids the groups working on the drives. An increasing number of organizations and families are becoming in­ volved in what con­ servationists hope will some day become a way of life for all citizens-rmaking con­ servation of natural resources a part of the conscious, daily experience. Newspaper, corrugated board, magazines, clear, green and brown glass bottles, all-steel cans, all- aluminum products and used motor oil are all collected at the drives. A request has been received from Pioneer Center for Exceptional asking if citizens would be willing to leave labels from certain foods and beverages in the specially marked container that will be at the drive each month. The center uses these labels toward purchase of equip­ ment for their sheltered workshop. For further information on the drive to be held this Saturday, on the types of labels being saved by Pioneer center, or on any of the other drives held in the county, call the McHenry C o u n t y ' D e f e n d e r representative at 385-5812. Anyone needing properly p r e p a r e d r e c y c l i n g materials picked up may call the Boy Scout representative at 653-9625.
