"There are six primary institutions •or departments," states* Mr. Battis, which McHenry, like all other cities and towns about the state utilize in •giving aid to unfortunates in their individual localities. There is the Women's Home and Hospital which is constantly called upon to render service to unmarried mothers and their babies. This situation among rural communities is very pronounced, more than the average person would possibly imagine. In giving aid to these girls, the majority of w?iom are less than nineteen years of age and many •of them not over sixteen, the Salvation Army not only renders efficient and sympathetic care at childbirth, but attempts to effect a complete rehabilitation of the young mother and a readjustment of her social condition that will prevent future embarrassment and hardships to the child as well as the mother. "Another institution which is being called upon at all times by counties outside of Cook is the Women's Emergency Lodge, where stranded women and children miV have a temporary "home while the Army is making some permanent adjustment of their problems. Then' there is the Missing Friends Department, which helps to locate relatives and friends who have disappeared from their homes. Many will doubtless recall the young hi^h school girl athlete from Winnetka who was reported missing and the Army found her within a few days and she •was returned to her parents. TKfere is the Prison Department which makes visits to the jails and prisons to offer «ncouragement to the Incarcerated ones against the time when they will ~be returned home. In these visits they try. to change the attitude of the prisoner about life' and bring •boat a greater respect fo».t"he rights of others, carrying a message many times from a heart-broken mother or father or sister or "brother. Their visits oftentimes result in finding missing friends who have been reported by relatives or friends who knew nothing of the circumstances which were keeping them away from borne. # "In the last two years one of the institutions which has been crowded to capacity is the Mens Emergency ,Shelter, known as New Start Lodge, -where homeless or unemployed men get a new lease on life. Here we find men who have worked on farms and highways, in garages and plumbing shi/ps and having no employment in small towns and villages have drifted to the 'Big City' where the same condition has prevailed and they have sought relief from their cold and hunger at the Salvation Army Shelter.

SENIOR CLASS PLAY ON FRIDAY MAY 13 'THE NSW POOR' AMUSING VERY FOX RIVER RECEIVES WALL-EYED PIKE > I , i *' V. • * Six hundred thousand young walleyed pike were put in Fox river between Algonquin and Oswego, Monday. The shipment, obtained at the Spring Grove hatchery, was stocked at various points. The following can allotments were planted as follows: Dundee and Carpentersville, 2 cans, Elgin 4, South Elgin 3, St. Charles, Geneva and Batavia each 3, Aurora and North Aurora, each 3, Montgomery 2, Oswego 1, Blackberry Creek 3- Each can contained about 20,000 young pike. The young pike were planted in weedy spots along the river, and wherever possible, near the outlets of small contributory streams. These fish are but a small part of the 311- 000,000 being hatched at the Spring Grove hatchery.
