Taylor As will be seen by a notice which appears elsewhere in this issue of The Plaindealer, the Chicago North Shore and Milwaukee railroad has filed with the Illinois commerce commission an application for a certificate of convenience and necessity to operate a motor vehicle for the transportation of passengers between the cities of Waukegan and Woodstock, passing thru the village of McHenry. This action on the part of the above named company seems to indicate that the motor bus service between these points is to be inaugurated just as soon as road conditions between the given points will permit an uninterrupted service. The company, it is only reasonable to assume, expects that the cement road between these points will be completed before the opening of the spring season of 1924 and therefore feels quite well assured that when once this service is inaugurated same will continue without interruption. Just how soon action of the Illinois commerce commission may be expected is not known here, altho it appears like a safe guess that permit will be obtained by the railroad company in ample time to allow them to prepare for the opening of the new service* According to reports from Waukegan, the company placed orders for the construction of several large motorbuses several months ago, some of which will very likely be used on this route, altho the company will also open up a new route between Wauke«an and Kenosha at a very near date. In establishing the service it is expected that the compan^ will be obliged to build up a business slowly. The winter months, quite naturally, will be vet-y slow, altho the business FOR SALE--Ear corn by the ton. Inquire at this office. 26-tf FOR SALE--Baby rice popcorn, guaranteed to pop.

In every unit the use of the sewing machine attachments has been demonstrated and many women have remarked, "Why, I've always had • those attachments and never knew how they would save time and seams for me." These demonstrations have been given by the local leader in each unit. These women were trained in the clothing school for local leaders. Then, too, the women have learned how to test samples of dress material before making selection. ^ T^iis will, if prac ticed by the Home Bureau women make them more intelligent buyers The merchants and clerks want to give you their best service. Considerable time in selection will be saved if you know the proper tests and properties of fibers; several trips to the store will be avoided and more enjoyment of our clothing will be realised. This is what Home Bureau is trying to do for the women. In January we plan to study commercial patterns. The tailored shirt waist will be used to determine which make of commercial pattern is best for each individual. Pattern alterations will also be taken up. These will be all day meetings. The get-to-gether proves pleasant and profitable. Several new members have signed up this month and we would be glad to have others take this step. Pattern Exchange Far Members A pattern exchange for members has been established with Mrs. Fred Baier, county clothing chairman, as leader. Children's patterns will be made a specialty since many of them are necessary and when bought ire quite expensive. Any modern patterns - tiflit are no longer of use to you and are in good condition and have the envelope in which they came may be left at the Home Bureau office or mailed to Mrs. Baier, Woodstock, and she will handle the exchange. Descriptions will be fbund in the Home Bureau letter and newspapers and the postage each way will be all the expense. Help us make this a success by sending in the patterns you won't use again. Drees Forms Hie Home Bureau will make dress forms for non-members for $5.00. Home Furnishing School For Local Leaders -February 20, 21, 22 and 23 is another red letter date that you want to mark off on your calendar as soon as you get it- These are the dates of the home decoration school for local leaders conducted by the university specialist in home decoration, Miss Wilkerson.
