Remembering When JOSIE SMITH (with long time subscribers) A road construction worker for many years, Josie Smith was born on a farm near Griswold Lake, south of McHenry. He recalled coming to McHenry in the early days on unpaved roads and paths that were just wide enough for one vehicle. These dirt roads wove through the area known as Mineral Springs. He noted that when vehicles traveling in opposite directions met on one of these roads, both would be forced to run half-way into the ditch in order to pass. He also remembered a sign that hung near a building as one rode into or out of McHenry. The sign, as one entered the City, read, "First Chance." On the flip side of the tavern sign, it read "Last Chance" (for a beer). Josie attended grade school in a small schoolhouse that was located on River road in the Emerald park area. The land where the building stood was donated by his father. The farm where Josie was born has since been reclaimed by the trees and is known as Moraine Hills State park. Josie noted, with a grin, that on a field trip to the park, some teachers thought Josie's grandson was kidding when he told them his grandfather was born on that land. (With this tribute to a long time subscriber, the Plaindealer series, Remembering When, which started in August of 1979 and continued on a weekly basis, will come to a conclusion as a regular feature. However, if names are submitted for inclusion, the column may return on an occasional basis). PAGE 3-PLAINDEALER- FRIDAY. NOVEMBF.K 14.1JW0 Park Ridge.

Bush Elementary school gymnasium, from 9 a.m. to 5p.m., the Johnsburg Parent-Teacher's organization of School District No. 12 will sponsor a Holiday-Christmas Bazaar. Usually a part of Break fast with Santa, held in December, this bazaar, due to the enthusiastic response to last year's items, has been enlarged as a new fund- raising project of the P.T.O., as well as being included again this year with the Breakfast. The theme for the bazaar w i l l e x t e n d f r o m Thanksgiving through the New Year. The timing - the S a t u r d a y b e f o r e Thanksgiving ~ will enable v i s i t o r s t o p i t t - c h a s e a t tractive Fall, harvest centerpieces and bcikery goods for their own Thanksgiving table or to bring along as a gift for the dinner table of others; as well as being able to pur chase items for Christmas and Christmas decorating. This project has been a community affair. Many parents contributed their time and others were busy cleaning closets and drawers, searching for odds and ends and bric-a-brac to make bazaar items. Notices were sent home to parents in September asking for such things as sequins, yarn, material, straw flowers, etc. Every Wed nesday since then, mothers have met to work on hand made ornaments. Others spent many hours during the week and on weekends making various centerpieces and holiday decorations. Some of the different areas featured as part of the bazaar will be: Trash and Treasures, where trinkets and 'white elephants' may b e p u r c h a s e d ; A r t s a n d Crafts, including knitted and crocheted items, handmade flowers and plaques, wreaths and centerpieces; Thanksgiving Bounty, where Fall and harvest-type centerpieces, decorations and wallhangings will be available. Also, A Bake Sale, which will include not only the availability of whole baked items, but also the purchase of pieces of cake and-or bars and cookies with a cup of coffee, milk, or juice, for those who wish to relax for a few minutes in the cafeteria; Three Christmas Trees, filled with handmade or naments - some made by the students of Bush School; Live Plants, with or without Fall and holiday decorations; and Jellies, made by the Junior High Home Economics classes. In addition, there will be a s e c t i o n e s p e c i a l l y f o r children, including a penny candy store, a table where children may purchase reasonably priced gifts for mom, dad, brothers, sisters and others; and a chance to guess How Much is in The •Fish Bowl. It is hoped that people will stop and visit the bazaar as they are out to vote. Voting will take place for all citizens of District 12, Saturday, Nov. 22, from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., at James C Bush school, on a referen d u m f o r e n e r g y a n d education.
