"It came to mind that a listing of quotes by characters long gone, but lovingly remembered, would be of interest "Simon Stoffel: (wrathfully) 'By God^e-e-e-el' Kate Heimer: Coming dpwn the street holding up a bandaged finger, 'I found that razor blade'. "Matt Eanen: On hearing of a death, 'People are dying who never died before*. "Our Grandfather: 'Here's a nickel, bring back the change'. "Blessed Father O-Rourke: Finishing ott confessions on a late Saturday afternoon: 'How did the Cute come out?' "A list of this kind could be left open. There could be entertaining additions. "Yours, "K: Brown "4016 Kane Ave.,* "McHenry" Dear K i Sore. We will leave this list open and hope others will add some remem­ brances. I like your reference to characters long gone-- "but lovingling remembered". There are other sayings. As Grandma would say, "Faith, I'm sure". S.I.H. The lady wrote a nice letter, telling me she is a senior citizen and has a little fur piece that belonged to Maude Curr. Miss Curr was a music teacher way, back when, the one who gave roe those two and one half piano lessons. This "never miss" column reader leaves me in the dark since she signed her letter "Guess who7" I'm still guessing. Since Mary Supak brought me that pack of newspapers from Pie and Zoe, those hardy northwoods gals, I have been enjoying them a little at a time. I think Mary has a home up there in the woods. She was a waitress at Snug Harbor for 20 years or more when Pie and Zoe were the owners. Long time friends. The McHenry Plaindealer M12 Waat Ban ttrMt twry W|<MI<1| > *«*cH«wry.

Those children must be little hellers. A tree in the Josie Glosson yard on Center Street is a beauty, wrapped in fall colors. I like to listen to farm reports on radio. One announcer insists on pronouncing holsteins as "bolstines". For an old tarmer, who has sat on a milk stool and had a fly-swatting tail hit me in the eye, the word is pronounced "holsteen". His pals felt so sorry for Tommy Sutton when he arrived at Pistakee Country Club and discovered he had left his golf clubs at home. Others in Tommy's foursome decided to let him go around the course taking imaginary swings while keeping his own score. According to Tommy's count, he had a sub par total. Others in the foursome checked his card and found he hadn't broken the magic 100. The strangest things happen in these parts! "Zeke" rode out of the west last week for his annual visit to his old home town. It was a signal for his friends, the 76ers, to get together again for lunch at McHenry Country Club where "Zeke" played a lot of golf. More than lunch, it was another session of recalling people and events of more than a half century ago. Of the six in their 70's, "Schmaltz" Millar was missing this time. A spell of illness caught up to him. To say "Schmaltz" was missed would be putting it mildly. Boiled down from comments around the table, "Schmaltz" is one likeable guy. The five old friends at the luncheon- gabfest were: "Zeke", Sib Whiting, Gus Freund, "Marty" Conway and myself. (Names taken at random, not necessarily according to age). Four were outstanding athletes. The fifth was an also ran. You figure it out for yourself. As always qualified: God willing, the six good freinds will meet next year.

Not just because it was the first car he owned, but because it was the car that saw him and his family through the depression. It was also the car that my dad and his brothers used when they first learned to drive. Long after it had limped through its.last mile and was a fixture in the weeds behind the tool shed, grandpa used to talk about the car like it was one of the family. For me it was more of a toy than anything else - something to climb on or open the doors and see if the bees would fly out. Grandpa always took care of that Model-T; that's why he got over 20 years use out of it. He often told me that the • mmmmm mm mm mm* mm mm Ifi Andre's ImChampagnes lid WMTK.FiNK.

With that as a background and winter fast approaching, here are a few of the things he told me about win­ terizing a car. The battery is the life of a car and unless you have a maintenance free battery, the fluid level should be checked and distilled water added if necessary. Each battery cell has a water level indicator so you don't overfill. Also remember the battery acid in the cells is very corrosive so don't get any on you. The battery terminals may have a white powder on them. This has to be removed. Loosen the terminal connections with a wrench and clean the battery with an old toothbrush using a solution of baking soda and water. After the terminals are clean, connect them once again and tighten and finally coat the ter­ minals with grease. Very cold weather puts a harder strain on your engine than at any other time of year. If the motor turns over easily and you know the battery is good, your gasoline could use a little help. Starting fluids in spray cans could be the answer for those cold days. Remove the air filter and spray into the throat of the carburetor while someone tries to start the engine. This little boost will usually do the job. Also to prevent gas line freeze- up, fuel-line anti-freeze should be added when temperatures get ex­ tremely cold. A test should be made of the anti-freeze solution in the radiator; most gas stations will do this for free. Fed safe if the hydrometer reading says the anti-freeze- water solution is good for 10 degrees lower than the lowest tem­ perature common in your area. There are a number of other things which can be done also: check tire pressure; change oil and filter and givevthe car a tuneup. The idea is to make the engine as strong as possible through the coldest time of the year. "So long as you are secure, you will count many friends; if your life becomes clouded, you will be alone."
