In the high school several new instruments were purchased this year for the use of the pupils and* free les- A cms were given to many. Every- • 'ling is being done by the board of iucation to interest the young peoie in music, but after they are given lis good start by the school .they graduate and no longer can find use ,for thip musical knowledge they hq^e EQUAL SUFFRAGE IS AIM OF TURK WOMEN PriqccM Tell^ of the - Brought by War. From an educational parents are urging that a city band be voted for McHenry. The band tax, which is only one mill on the assessed valuation of property, is a very small item for any property owner to pay, with very few objecting to this opportunity to assist in the welfare of,the young people cf the community., ;^ - If the band .proposition is carried at the coming election ita motive .will be to give the people of McHenry some real band concerts by McHenry talent, thereby keeping the tax money in our own community, Surely no * jfair-i^hilld r. object ' to this. rK;* " ;V:: "' ?•*- . On Decoration day ^nd «t puttie gatherings the stirring music of the, band adds much to the importance 4>f the occasion.

Bucharest. •-- Reopening the Rumania- Soviet frontier following resumption of diplomatic relations, has brought- a parade of Enoch Ardens back to Romania. Former sol'diere, unable • to ^scj»t)e from the U. S. S. K: for years, returned to their homes to find, in many cases, their wives had remarried. Most of the ex-soldiers were believed by the wives to be dead. Postal communication between Rpssla and Rumania was prohibited and the prisoners had no way of telling their relatives that they were alive. In some cases, families refuse even to recognize them, especially In matters pertaining to return of property. The case of Pedor Tofei Is a typical example of these tragic stories. He came home at nlgbt after on absence of 18 years. Looking through the windows he saw his wife sitting at a well-laid dinner table together with a strange man and four small chlldreh. Fedor was tired and hungry. The house and the farm belonged to bim. He knocked at the door and entered. Maria, his wife, gave a frightened shriek hut collected herself immediately, and asked him what he wanted. He replied: "You can keep your husband and your children but I want - my farm bftck." Maria refused to recognise the torn, dirty tramp. He was kicked out of the house. Tofei went to the river which so often appeared in his dreams during his exile. He took out a pencil and scribbed on a piece of paper, "It is better to be really dead than a living corpse," then plunged Into the water and\j>ut an end to his troubles. Police investigating his death, learned his story. -'VS' A capelet that ties Ascot fashion in front and, cascades to the hlp-llne in back adds youthful glamor to the gown of dazzling white, Spanish lace.
