DICK KLEMM Republican for State Representative / 33rd District spurgeons MCHENRY COUNTY AUDITOR Qualifications & Experience Count! Re-Elect ALBERT M. Remembering When (with long time subscribers) MR. AND MRS. JOHN HOGAN Both born in Michigan, John and Ua Hogan have lived in the McHenry area for the last 42 years. Ila said she met John after her family had moved to Walworth, Wis., and "It was just one of those things." John attended Ringwood school and at age 12 began his life as a successful farmer. He worked a number of farms in the area before he bought the farm he now owns. The Hogan family moved onto the Barnard Mill road just before the Christmas of 1944. He remembered when Ringwood was "a lot bigger than it is today." Some of the businesses present in Ringwood's more prosperous times were a general store, a garage, a bank, a meat market, a dairy, a bottling plant, a blacksmith forge, a feed and grist mill, a drug store and a post office. In about 1912, John attended Ringwood school and he recalled that Clarence Pearson and Mary Butler were both in his class. Years later, all seven children would graduate from the same building and to this day, all but two live within 13 miles of the Hogan farm. John and his two sons have been farming nearly 1,800 acres, of which they own 375, for a good many years and no doubt they will continue to do so. rnuc..i-riJiinii Planning Insures Carefree Trip Harvest Party Pal The cool, crisp days of Autumn are here! A time to breathe deeply Fall's in­ vigorating air, to mull cider, harvest corn, decoraite pumpkins, contemplate lliankggiving. It's also a time for parties, country fairs, community functions and school dances. Anyone looking for an attention-getter should try making a felt scarecrow. The little charmer fits right in as a table decoration, a welcome sign on the door or a show-off centerpiece. Felt, a non-woven polyester material that is crush-resistant, shrink-proof and colorfast, is easy to cut. It can be glued with surface tension adhesives and can be painted, stenciled or marked with ball point and felt tip pens, magic markers, fabric crayons or any other type of marking device. Available in different colors that appeal to young and old alike, felt can be purchased by the yard and in 9" x 12" pieces, wherever craft products are sold. The scarecrow is a fun project needing no expertise, just a little patience and a minimum of inexpensive materials. To get started, the following materials are needed: eleven 9" x 12" pieces of felt - 5 old gold, 1 turquoise, 1 tangerine, 1 lime rickey, 1 sunny yellow and 1 black; a quarter yard of glue-by-the-yard; thread; thick white glue; scissors; ruler; paper stapler; iron and press cloth. To make arms and legs: First cut 4 old gold pieces lengthwise into thirds. Then fold each strip in half length-, wise. Tack or staple three together at one end. Braid. Tie with thread about an inch from end to secure. Repeat procedure to make four braids. Cut tied ends to make fringe. Cut remaining piece of old gold into thirds crosswise to make 4" x 9" strips. Fold each into thirds lengthwise. Repeat above procedure to make braids. Tack both ends and do not fringe. Attach unfringed ends of the two long braids to one end of short braid for legs. Then attach one long braid to each side of opposite end of short braid for arms. . To make trousers: Cut turquoise piece in half crosswise and fold up cuff on one short end of each piece. Stitch long edges together to make tubes. Hand sew or machine stitch having seam at back. Slit folded edge at opposite end of cuff. Then pull braided legs through each tube through slit to fit body. Glue to secure. Following the photograph, make a little sleeveless jacket of lime rickey felt. To make head: Fuse together two pieces of tangerine, using glue-by-the- yard. On separate sheet of paper, draw outer section of pumpkin head ap­ proximately 5" wide x 4" high. Then make center area 3V4" wide x 4M> long. Use patterns to cut 2 pieces each of head and center section. Glue large pieces together and smaller pieces together. Then glue center section to large section as shown in the photograph. To make hair: Cut fringes of sunny yellow. Tie bunches at one end and glue to each side of top of head. Cut features of the face in black felt and glue to center section of head to make face. To attach head, glue strip of scrap felt to the back of head to make neck. Secure neck to body inside jacket with glue. To complete, cut patches of sunny yellow and glue to jacket and pants. The felt fellow will measure 20"-21" tall when standing. However, simply a d j u s t o v e r a l l measurements to conform to height as desired.

Flights, hotels and resorts during ho'^iy times and peak vacatu periods are often booked months in advance, so one should visit a travel agent early to confirm reservations First, it is best to decide what both would most enjoy - - a beach resort with all kinds of sports action; a famous city with sight­ seeing. theatre and shop­ ping; an exotic island to explore; or a foreign country, even if it is Mexico or Canada. Travel agencies and airline offices offer a wide variety of tour packages to exciting places and take away much of the worry and planning. A proof of U.S. citizenship is necessary when going to a foreign destination. Al­ though passports are not always required, they are the most convenient proof of citizenship. It should be applied for about a month in advance of the trip. Other acceptable proofs, however, are birth certificates, voter registration cards and naturalization papers. A tourist card or other documentation may also be needed. The best way to safeguard money is with traveler's checks. They are not only insured against theft or loss, they are welcomed almost everywhere. It is a good idea to keep a list of the check numbers in a separate pocket or wallet throughout the trip.- Money should be budgeted when considering a place to go, remembering to include a little extra for those special mementoes and dinners for two. Before the pre-wedding rush begins, a list should be made of all the things to do, buy and pack for the honeymoon. Once everything is written down, there will be no worry about forgetting things at the last minute. C u r r e n t b a g g a g e allowances for airlines are very generous. Each can carry a small bag aboard the plane that must be stowed under the seat or in the approved overhead com­ partment. Larger suitcases must be checked through to the destination With today's security precautions, most luggage is inspected. The travel agency or airlines can ad­ vise on weight and size limits to any destination. Although quite a bit of luggage is allowed, traveling light does simplify the trip. PAGE 3 - PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY. OCTOBER 31,1980 documents, traveler's checks, cameras and jewelry should be carried while enroute. Once at the destination, it's a good idea to lock valuables not being used in the hotel safe. A soft-sided empty bag slipped into a larger packed bag, to use for things bought during the trip, comes in handy. Also, an ID tag must be attached to every suitcase that is to be checked. When heading for a warm- weather area, drip-dry cottons and cotton blends are ideal. For cooler destinations, synthetics and wool knits usually come out of the suitcase ready for wearing. One should plan the honeymoon wardrobe very carefully and not take everything in the closet or drawers. For easy access and security,_ tickets, travel A travel agent will be able to answer any questions about the destination An agent can advise about special low fares which may be combined with the ground arrangements for an economical honeymoon package with air or bus transportation. They are paid by the airlines and other organizations they represent, so usually they will be able to help without any fee or charge. JOHN F.
