Renich Entered as second-class matter at the postoffice at McHenry, 111., under the act of May 8, 1879. • _ One Year ... Six Months ._...$2.00 v... $1.00 X A. H. M06HER, Editor and Manager Lillian Sayler, Local Editor -- -- -- -- Telephone 197 • Popularity of Lily I» Traced Through History \ In countless instances, wherever and whenever men and women have sought to typify purity, state- 7 liness, graciousness and other of t h e f i n e - f l o w e r i n g a t t r i b u t e s a n d ^ qualities of the human mind, they have turned to the lily foK^ar^ ex- ' ample, for an illustrat,jpn. fofa simile, observes a writer in the Yojrk ^or|d-Telegram. j s e n t i m e n t , w h i c h < i n o u r English speech finds expression in je phrases, "Fair as a lily" and *iire as a lily," also finds lodgnic^ t & the idiom of every civilized "-;_i^guagf. " ~ • ; , T t H ? w o r d s e c h o a universal mj,*"-,agreement; they represent a world- wide ideal; they stand for a com- - monly held creed. Men and women "-v.- for hundreds of years have obeyed 'the injunction of the great Gali- "V'lean. fhe have "considered the • lilies" and ha^e^^u^d^^theiT^^?^ In the world's architecture, its , paintings, its literature (both prose and poetry) the lily always has . been erriployed as the symbol of immaculate beauty and purity. Turning backward in the world's History one finds the lily already in favor as a flovtfer, as a symbol, as decorative art. In the Old Testament there are a number of poetical allusions to it. In the Canticles is one passage known the world over--"My beloved is mine and I am" his; he feedeth among the lilies." The appearance of the lily in Jewish art is evidenced by the description of the great temple built by King Solomon, in which it was stated that Hiram of Tyre wrought in the capitals of the porch pillars with lily work and that he also surrounded the great "molten sea" in the great auditorium with richly • carved "flowers of lilies." "Phantom" Vessel Visits Gaspe Once Each Season , According to a popular belief, a "phantom ship," a sort of "Flying Dutchman," visits the St. Joseph du Cap d'Espoir coast of the Gaspean peninsula at leiast once a year, notes a Gaspe correspondent in the Washington Star. It is generally seen in the twilight of a summer's eve. The sea is calm at the time, when suddenly huge waves rise from the bottom of the ocean and come tumbling in toward the beach. Out of those agitated foam-covered combers there looms ! in the distance the ghostly form of a vessel, all sails set and steering right for the foot of the cape. Her deck is manned by sailors and soldiers in the garb of olden times. On the prow stands the captain, with a white-draped form resting upon his left arm. A clap of thunder, a crashing noise, and the vessel and her ghostly crew are no more. The sea resumes its usual aspeet, a hush lies upon the waters. • • Hyena Has No Friends From ancient times hyenas have been the subject of stj^ange myths. It was said of thetn that they changed their sex each year, that their neck-bones were in one piece and that they were capable of assuming human form. The hyena's cry, like maniacal laughter-, may have given rise to this superstition. The hyena has huge teeth and powerful jaws capable of'cracking heavy bones. He,is as efficient a scavenger by night as is the buzzard by • day, and is said to rob shallow native graves and to kill -sheep, dogs, pigs and calves. He is called a sneak, coward, robber and thief. Even «the aroma Surrounding him is the kind his best friends won' t tell jiim about--if he,, had any friends. " •' " . : Horse Racing" ' " Horse racing goes back - to the earliest written history. The first Olympic games saw chariot races. Centuries later when the> Romans, invaded Britain they introduced "racing which, in our days, has come to be known, because of the expense attached to it, as the "sport of kings," Go back nine centuries and read a chronicler's description, wherein he says: "The horses are eager for the race. Their limbs tremble and they can. not stand - still. When the signal to - start is given, they respond with unrerriitting speed.'" •'Buffalo" atid "Bison" Zoologists say the term "buffalo" is incorrectly applied to the bison. A species riiuch similar to the American bison once roamed most oi Europe. The family was all but exterminated; however, and survives in a few protected parks and in the Caucasus mountains. The plains Indians fought fiercely *to preserve their bison range against the whites, for the bison meant food and shelter to them. His hump was a delicacy better than beef, and his hairy hide would ^ protect them from freezing in the bieakv .northern winters.. V: ' • Marks on Coins. The portions of. a coin which are sunk below'the level of the surfacfe are said to be infuse. The obverse side is the front" or face of a coin. Mint marks are the small letters on coins denoting the place,of mintage. The mint«marks are found on the reverse si 'e of the coin.

"No, the youngster's allright, but the barrel's impty." SLIP AND SLIDE •TIT"ELL, let's eat." Bob Lintori • V spoke impatiently, though is voice was pleasant enough, lie stdQd iil..^he door of the untidy little living roorfi watched Mary as. she pulled the§T>X$fids hurriedly over quickly made be "nigKt. I'm" ready. Where's my handbag?" Mary leaped over to |5J h^r TioSt IrTtne dressing table mirrtfr as she gave it a last dab of powder, swept a trampled hancU kerchief into the drawer before she pushed it shut with her knee, pulled her hat down over her brown curls witijQiit looking at it, and went into the living room to get her handbag. Bob performed his regular morning task of closing all the windowj, save for an inch at the bot$6rrf and an inch at tl)e top, for fear there might be rain. -- * It was two rooms, bath and kitchenette, really. But, excepting for its tiny refrigerator, where a bottle of milk or a bottle of beer might be kept on hand, for refreshments, the kitchenette did not count in Bob and Mary's life. They had agreed six months before when they weremarried, that they wouldn't try to keep house. "You're right, Mary," Eob had said. "With business in the dumps of course I can't afford to support y o u . Y o u ' r e r i g h t t o k e e p y o u r job." "You'd Jae selfish to ask me to give it up," Mary had said. "We'll save toVard a future when I needn't go to an office, if you want--" his radiant smile answered her' without words-- "and we won't try to keep house at all. We'll just have all the happiness of marriage with none of the worries." "Oh, the same old junk," said Bob, as he and Mary, a few minutes after leaving their rooms, sat down at a drug store counter for breakfast. "Gosh, am I tired of this joint." Mary interrupted him, a bit acidly. His criticism of the breakfast menu seemed a criticism of her. "Don't know what more you could expect. What do you want, anyway? Jack's waiting for our order. Give me tomato juice, toast and coffee." When they separated at the "subway entrance at the corner--Mary' took a bus, because her office was much nearer than Bob's -- they were both a little snappish. "Where'll we meet for dinner?" Bob's query was given as if he didn't care whether or not they met. "Well, how do I know--now? Call me up later and I'll let you know when I can get awatf," Mary's tone was impatient. "All right -- all right. But you needn't bite my head off just be* cause I ask a civil Question." So they separated And five minutes later each was "thinking of the other -- Mary with tears in her eyes, Bob* with regret in his heart. " "It's just because we haven't organized this thing right," thought B o b . " T h e p l a c e l o o k s l i k e t h e ' devil. Mary hates untidiness, and heaven knows I'm untidy." "It's because we'd be happfer if we didn't eat our meals all in restaurants," Mary thought. "Bob hates it.." When hq^ -telephoned her after lunch, she said, "Oh, Bob dear, I'll be late-tonight. ' Meet me uptown at the subway corner at half pas town." And Bob answered, "O. K. I was just going to suggest the same thing. I've got to work late, myself." At five o'clock Mary Jet herself into the apartment with her latchkey. After telephoning Bob, s h e had pushed hurriedly through the day's work so that she might go home early. Her arms were full of bundles, for she had stopped at the butcher'^ and grocer's, on her way in. As she started across the living room to the kitchenette she stopped in fright. Somebody was in the bedroom making such a noise that her own none too quiet entrance had evidently been unheard. She stood still for a moment, then pushed open the bedroom door. "Why, Bob Linton, whatever are you doing?" ' She looked at Bob, in shirtsleeves, with a scrubbing brush in one hand arid a cake of soap in the other. Bob, from his knees, grinned up a t h e r , " C l e a n i n g u p , " he s a i d . ".Knew you didn't like this 'messmostly mine, too. So I dug everything out of this clorset and I've got 'em all sorted. Now I'm scrubbing the floor." -- "Bob, you darling!" Mary let, a clutter of parcels drop to the bed as she went down on her knees beside Bob to kiss him. "I do think you're sweet." "Well, what's all this?" Bob inquiringly picked up a brown paper bag. "That? Oh, that's dinner. I .bought a steak and some vegetables and things, and coffee and cream and rolls, and stuff for a salad. Thought we'd dine in tonight. I knew you'd like it." Bob jumpecj to his feet, upsetting the pan of water from which he was w a s h i n g t h e f l o o r . He t o o k Mary in his arms, still brandishing the soap and brus*. ;|X«u're sweeter, he said. -*W-- • Bill and wish him luck with that and family visited at West Chicago on „ ..... Sunday.

"What's the matter with the hancT --fight? "No, argument with * .revolving door." Hei* Best The car swerved across the street, mounted the. pavement, and crashed into the plate-glass window of the big shop. The driver, a young and pretty girl, climbed out of her seat, to be questioned by the stolid policesergeant. "Surely," said the limb of the law sternly -- "surely on a wide road like this you could have done something to avoid an accident?" "Oh, but I did!" said she tragically. "I screamed as loud as. I could."--Answers Magazine. How Too Look at It The chemist was in a bad temper* He had told his assistant to have a new sign painted [outside the shop, and when he saw it he was furious. "You're a fool!" he raved. "But the sign is beautifully done," said the assistant, puzzled. "It may be," snapped the chemist. "But who's going to rely on us when our signs read, 'In making up our prescriptions we dispense with care.'" A Consistent Attitude "What are your opinions on this momentous question?" "I haven't changed my mind," replied Senator Sorghum. .

C.--Migration of 59,000 families from the drouth damaged farms'of the great plains was recommended in, a- population survey of that area by Dr. C. W. Thornthwaite, former university of Oklahoma climatologist. * His study, published by the University of Pennsylvania, contended that wind erosion had damaged 65 P^f cent of the plains region, extending from {he Canadian border into the Texas panhandle. A long range government program for the return' of millions of acres of wheat land to its native sod, he said, might be the only means of checking the devastating cfusl storms? 1 • ---- Observing that long dry spells have been frequent in the history of the plains, Thornthwaite predicted that "the present drouth might be prolonged for 20 or more years." Evidence from tree, rings, lake levels, and other sources was cited in the survey to show that a 40 year drouth began in 1825 and was interupted by.only occasional wet y§iU&. The weather experts estimated that a minimum of 12,610 families should move out of Montana, the s t a t e i n w h i c h he r e p o r t e d t h e greatest "surplus population." He urged a migration of 12,200 families from T&as and 7,360 frcuri North Dakota. j Heavy removals al§o were suggested for South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Wyoming, and Colorado. School census returns indicated, he said, that 36,000 families have left the great plains since 1930. "The ideal situation in the great plains," he said, "would be a virtually complete return to a grazing economy wherie pasturing on the range is supplemented by the raising of feed and forage crops. "This does not mean a re-establishment of the great ranches and the restoration of the cattle kings, but rather "an increase in the size of farms to a point where cultivation and grazing can both be controlled." ' • 4 Washington Statue Is Damaged by Renovators Philadelphia.--George Washington's head was saved. But it \ook strenuous action by Giuseppe Donato, a prominent "sculptor, to rescue it. Donato found a group of WPA workmen busy sandpapering the two-ton statue of Washington in the city hall. He became furious, ordering the men to stop. They did. Donato tried to summon the art jury to an emergency meeting. When that failed he hastened to Mayor Davis' office. halted. Sandpapering is not good for granite statues. Donato had explained. Appointed by the mayor to finish the job, he did not know whether he would use acid or resculpturing. The statue, carved in 1869 by J. A. Bailey, was financed by school children's pernios and formerly stood in front of Independence Hall. , HAROLD BACON N&W HEAD COUNTY BANKERS .Harold J.
