The committee held a meeting in the high school on Monday, May 18, and plans were outlined for the drive which will start, on Friday morning, May 20, and will last for one week, ending Friday, May 27. Each representative on the committee has been asked by the chairman to select at least two members from and have them morning at 9 o'clock at appeal headquarters, City Hall, to receive the kits which they will use in their canvass. "It should not require more than two hours of anyone's time," remarked Chairman Weber at the meeting on Monday, "and surely all should be glad to devote that much time to a cause that is so worthy of our support. The Salvation Army officers are sacrificing their lives for the good of humanity and stand ready at all times to administer aid to any person who may be sent to them from McHenry county. Past records disclose that there have been many. According to Mr. Battis, educational director of the Army, who addressed meeting Monday night, there have been as high as fifteen cases in one year at one institution alone resulting in an expenditure of over $4,00Q, three times as much as has ever been contributed from McHenry county.

The abandoned Studebaker with a bad blowout was evidently parked in McHenry early Monday morning and was kept at the garage all day without any attention being paid to it or any suspicions being aroused for it is a common occurrence for commuters and other motorists to park their cars at Overton's for care and service during the day, to be called for at night. The car remained until Tuesday morning when an investigation was started and some startling clues to a murder case were soon disclosed. It was also learned that the men who abandoned the Studebaker had helped themselves to a local car and t"e | had made their get-way to Chicago in Peter W. Frett's Buick, which had not been missed until a call from the Chicago police to Mr. Frett Tuesday morning apprised him of the fact that his car was gone.

Any girl or lady who will devote a few hours time to aid this worthy project is asked to get in touch with Mrs. Schaefer immediately to receive her tags and boxes which she will use on Saturday. In his talk to the committee on Monday evening, Mr. Battis expressed great appreciation on behalf' of the Salvatibn Army for the efforts which the people of McHenry were malting in helping the Army to carry forward its great work for the unfortunate. "If every person in McHenry," said Mr. Battis, "will do their part even as the members of the committee are doing, I feel certain that we "will exceed the contribution of last year, and it is greatly needed because of the increased demands being made for Army service." I Frett started his day's work and went downstairs and to the Morrow garage, which he has rented, got his truck and started out on a drive into Wisconsin after produce. . Only a few minutes after he had^gone downstairs Mrs. Frett and Edward heard the Buick start and supposed that Mr. Frett was taking it down to the Morrow garage to leave for the day and so the robbery worked out without a suspicion that the car had been stolen until Tuesday morning when Mr. Frett, afi ter reaching home late the night before, received a call from the Chicago police checking up on his license numbers and informing him that they had his car. The surprise of the Frett family can be imagined, but it was no doubt a pleasant surprise after all, and a day and night of worry over the missing car had been spared them. Aft&^receiving the message, Mr. Frett's aleft mind began working harder than ever piecing together clues concerning the stolen, cars and news of the murder which he had learned on his trip inlo Wisconsin the preceding day.

The-body was found about 8 o'clock Monday morning by two school boys near the Witte Brothers farm and headquarters were notified An investigation of the Studebaker disclosed blood stains on the door and cushions and two pieces of gas pipe on one of which was also blood stains. Mr. Frett soon saw the possible connection the car might have to the murder of his friend, notified Sheriff Finn *f Dane county, Wisconsin, who, with several deputies, arrived on the scene in McHenry in a very short time. The sheriff brought with him a license plate which had been picked up near the murder victim which corresponded with the single plate on the abandoned car and fitted onto the broken front bracket of the car from which the license nlate had been missing. This alone pretty definitely identified the ear as the murder vehicle, but further evidence was obtained from the gas pipe on which wjw found jtwo years with that organization. More than one year was spent in France, where the deceased saw much active service in the front lines. Following the war he warf employed in the Woodstock Typewriter factory.
