So heavy was the mail on these two days that it took several days for workers in the office to open it, to say nothing about sorting it and making necessary entries. Tax (payments via Uncle Sam's mail did not constitute the only means of returns on the days mentioned above as $33,000 was taken in at the windows fn the office on these two days. Another manner of collecting taxes is through the various banks in the county and on the two days mentioned above the returns from the banks reached a $27,000 total.

Coupled with the noise and laughter of the carnival spirit this home-coming angle fits right into the plans of the big annual event to be staged by McHenry Post, American Legion, at McHenry on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, July 8, 4, 5 and 6. It's going to be a Fourth of July celebration, carnival and homecoming all rolled into one. Chairmen for all the committees have been selected by General Chairman Bolger, with reports pouring in that they have started work, full of enthusiasm, resulting in a splendid response from those who have been asked to assist the chairmen in the various booths during the four days and evenings. Fireworks Display Thousands of people visit this Legion carnival and celebration each year and most of them return again the next season. Why ? Because they have been entertained in the way they enjoy. They realize that the McHenry Legionnaires put on the best show to be found anywhere. One of the main events is the huge display of fireworks the night of the Fourth. Don't miss is this year, it will be bigger and better. The kiddies have not been forgotten either; there will be rides for them all. Even Grandpa and Grandma will get a real thrill this year. Perhaps some of the rides will be a little too strenuous for the older folks, but they always get a lot of fun watching and listening to the youngsters. These four interesting dates are not so far away now, so, folks, better make preparations to attend. Scratch off July 3, 4, 5 and 6 on your calendars as a reminder. Remember, the net proceeds from this carnival will all be used to cancel the indebtedness of the Legion Memorial park, located right in the heart of McHenry. Help the boys establish this fine improvement free from any incumbrance. Following is a list of the chairmen of the different booths and shows: General Chairman--Thos. P. Bolger.

Armstrong, State Director, announced this week. Aid of agencieo outside the Selective Service crgattnatioTt is not expected to be required, he said. Although on October IS, 1940--the first registration day--mstty persons and organisations outside the Selective Service System assisted in the task of enrolling more than 1,016,000 potential trainees in Illinois, it is believed that the new registration will not require outside help. Local boards which were in a state of organization on October 16 are now functioning in a routine manner and should be able to register the estimated 60,000 young men in Illinois who have become twenty-one years old since October 16 and are otherwise eligible for registration, Mr. Armstrong said. "When the first registration was conducted laat October we were given the whole-hearted assistance of various persons and agendas* public and private, outside the Selective Service System," he continued. "Without their assistance we cOuld not have conducted the registration with the minimum of difficutly we encountered. "We are everlastingly grateful for their help but are certain that the local boards will be able to conduct the second registration on July 1, as ordered by the President." Local boards will enroll the young men at the offices of the boards. In the event that local board headquarters are situated so that it would be difficult for men required to register to appear, local board chairmen may, with the consent of the state director, select additional places of registration. The registration will he conducted between die hours of 7 a. m. and 9 p. m.

Clarence Smith, who lost his sight through an accident a flew years ago, recently completed a course in leathercraft and has opened a shop in Johnsburg, on the south side of the paved highway, which he has named "Clarence's Shop."

"You've been at it for years now," the inquirer said. "Surely by this time everyone in town must know about you and your stock. Why do you continue to spend money advertising?" For an answer, the merchant picked up a copy of the local newspaper and turned to the column headed "Vital Statistic" . . .and replied : "Here is the reason it is necessary to keep on advertising. Do you see that list of death notices? Some of those people were fine customers of mine. I must replace them from some source. Do you see those birth notices ? That means a new generation coming on--or a generation that knows nothing whatever about me or my merchandise. I must sell them. Do you see those marriage notices? Each of those items means a new household j . . . a potential market for me. These 1 voung couples may know I am in I business, but they have never had occasion to be particularly interested in what I have to sell. But now that they are in the market, I must not overlook tiie opportunity to tell them about my stock. "Add to these reasons I have given above, the fact that people--good customers of mine--are continually moving away from town, and others moving in to take their place. These newcomers don't know anything about me --my store--my stock--my service. I must tell them or I can't hope to sell them. If j don't get s fair share of , their business to compensate for lost j trade of those who move away IH; soon be doing my heavy figuring on the wrong side of the ledger. "8o you see I must advertise my store and keep right on advertising it. .. or . . . the sheriff will advertise the place for aale." < WOODSTOCK ELKS : SPONSOR SPECIAL FLAG DAY PROGRAM In co-operation with the Elka lodge of Woodstock and other patriotic organisations in McHenry county, the following proclamation has been iasued by Mayor Overton.
