Atty. F.E. Eckert of Woodstock delivered the address of the day. Franklin Adams, better known as "Skij^py" of radio fame, was a guest at Bidder's hotel where his presence created considerable interest. The members of the Little Ger­ man Band played at Round Lake, where they furnished music at the church carnival. There is a total of 530 wheat growers in McHenry county, practically all of whom are eligible to take part in the government's wheat adjustment program and receive the cash benefits, according to a county list which has been compiled by Farm Adviser W.A. Herrington for uAe in the campaign. i\ .*• ' Forty Years Ago (Taken from the files of August 26,1943) Sunday, August 22, will be remembered by folks at Lilymoor for some time. At that time a flag raising and dedication of a beautiful honor/ roll on the lot of W.P.Ruckheim was held. Th6 celebration was well planned by President Frank Keller and the weather, too, was favorable. A group of people who gathered at the schoolhouse were escorted to the place of dedication by the McHenry County Drum and Bugle Corps. The beautiful honor roll and flag make a fitting decoration for the com­ munity. The many friends of N.H. Petesch in McHenry will be interested to know that a fine collection of fiction and reference books from the Petesch family library has been presented to the McHenry Public Library, having been sent recently in care of Mrs. C:W. Goodell. Mr. Petesch also sent his complete musical library to Mrs. Goodell, who was a close friend of the family. Mr. Petesch is now making his home in California. Twenty-Five Years Ago * (Taken from the files " of Sept. 4,1958) The distinction of attaining the highest average and being the youngest member of the graduating class belongs to 13-year-old Madonna Casey of Country Club drive, McHenry, when she graduated from St. Mary's school, Mundelein. Eligible to receive a scholarship to Holy Child High School, Waukegan, because of her scholastic ability, Madonna was not content without entering the com­ petitive scholastic exam being sponsored city-wide by the Chicago Firemen's Post, No. 667, Educational fund. As a result of this examination four scholarship awards were presented at Resurrection parish church and Madonna merited a $700 four-year award to any high school of her choice. The young lady will enter SKCTION 2 - I*A<»K A - I'I.AINI>I<:AM- Mother McAuley High School in Chicago. A devoted: postal career begun long ago by George W. Christensen of Mineral Springs Park, ended in retirement on Aug. 31 according to a recent announcement made by Chicago's postmaster. . Ten Years Ago (Taken from the files of Aug. 31,1973) The board of education of District 156 has approved the recom­ mendation of a McHenry resident for the newly created position of Dean of Students at high school's West campus. O. Gregory Johnson will assume that role by working closely with students, faculty and community to maintain a positive climate for the education goals of the district. Approximately 60 persons at­ tended the informal open meeting at it - WI:I)NI;SI»AY, AI:<;t;ST3I. U«3 city hull to hear a presentation on the proposed annexation of 229 acres of land east of the river, knowri as Port Royal. Mayor Stanek stressed * that this was an informal meeting and not a conference as prescribed by the zoning ordinance. In regular meeting the trustees of McHenry County College were in­ formed by Dr. Davis that the Illinois Bureau of the Budget is delaying construction of the college campus. The Bureau is not convinced that McHenry County College can meet its enrollment projections. Your cat bathes himself regularly with his own saliva, which has remarkable cleansing and deodorizing properties. You may find an occasional bath appropriate if your cat seems especially dirty, if he needs a flea bath or if the weather is ex­ ceptionally warm (over 100 degrees). me: aces* ic stow NOW THRU SATURDAY, SEPT. 3!
