LADISLAUS CHERNEY   cemetery #44

Cherney Retires As Engineer at Kingsbury Plant
After serving 33 years as engineer at the Kingsbury Breweries Co. rotund, 
jovial Logic Cherney, 67, 1413 South 11th street, retired this week just 
to "take it easy."
Last evening he was guest of the "boys" at Reifs Mills, and Cherney's face 
flushed with pride when the gang presented him with a big overstuffed 
armchair as a retirement gift.
High tribute was paid to Kingsbury's chief engineer by President E.C. Badger 
of the company when he told the gathering that Cherney had never failed at 
his tasks. He should be called "Mr. Fix It," Mr. Badger suggested.
Cherney was born and reared near Mishicot, and when he was 14 years old went 
to work as a brewer for the old Mishicot Brewing Co., since dissolved.
When the Spanish-American war broke out in 1898, Cherney showed that he had 
the blood of a soldier running through his veins. He enlisted.
Following his release from service around the turn of the century, Cherney 
went to work as a salesman for the Smalley Manufacturing Co. of Manitowoc, 
but in 1912 he returned to the brewery business as an engineer.
Cherney Was Retained
He started working at the Schreihart Brewery Co. of Manitowoc then located 
at 10th and Washington streets. In 1918, the Schreihart Co. and Manitowoc's 
two other breweries, the Kunz-Bleser Co. and the Rahr Brewery Co., 
consolidated under the Manitowoc Products Co. and Cherney was retained in 
the consolidation.
In the early '30's the Manitowoc Products Co. changed its name to Kingsbury 
Breweries.
And then near-beer went out of existence when Roosevelt was elected in 1932, 
and Cherney was back in his old trade-making good beer.
Cherney and his wife, Anna, live alone at their home on South 11th street. He 
said he has been married 45 years and in five years he and his wife will 
celebrate their golden wedding anniversary.
Always Had A Joke
His son, Roland, has been a fireman at Kingsburys the past 13 years, and his 
daughter is now Mrs. Alex Baltos of Manitowoc.
All the gang knows Cherney as a good-natured Mr. Fix It who has never let them 
down. He worked hard and he had a sense of humor, fellow workers said. When the 
going was difficult, Cherney would sweat and become flushed in the face, but he 
could always come up with a joke about the situation, the gang said.
King Cole, sales manager at Kingsburys, started off the singing, following the 
dinner, and everyone joined in with the old fashioned songs so popular in 
Cherney's day.
Cherney's eyes were a little dim a few tiems during the meeting because this 
was the culmination of everything he had worked for all these long years-but 
the hardest part of retirement was leaving all the boys.
