V ' ** • HEN Wilma Wentworth had * * had a few very successful years of interior decorating in New York the longing for home and all that home meant swept over her. "Home Sweet Home," she said in her letter to the folks at home in a thriving young city. "I'm coming along as soon as I can arrange it and build up my business there near you. I have saved a considerable sum to start with but know it won't take long--hot with the New York stamp!to my credit," So Wilma had stepped off the train from the East and into the arms of her devoted family. She almost took their breath away with her lovely clothes and the undoubted joy. of home-coming. " L "You've not grown> away from us then, dearie, with all your success," •aid her mother. "Our Wilma ipn't that kind," said her father. "I ajways knew she'd fly home to the heist." "We haven't eveb pulled down your old play house that--" "And I'm glad you haven't," interrupted Wilma, because all the way out on the train I was thinking that it could be turned' into an adorable studio-shop--that is, with slight improvements." "You'll have to get the original builder to put on the additions," laughed Irma, the younger sister. "You decorators can't mix up your period design, you know." Wilma laughed. "You were too young so you won't iremembejr |he designer of that play house--it was Lanky Dickinson, mother, you'll remember him--I seem to see him now with his long legs and lanky black hair." "His folks still I've .in the old house," said Mrs. Wentworth. "I heard Lanky had turned architect and had made good somewhere or other. He certainly ought to be proud to see his first effort at building." "I'd simply love , to have him see it," said Wilma, and in her eyes was the memory of that tall fine boy who had been her playmate. "He's hardly been home except for short visits while making his fortune and name," her mother told her. "And now, we'll have to be busy planning sonle grand parties to show off our own homing bird." And so th£ next few weeks were spent in a round of the most wonderful times. Wilma found herself the center of devoted friends. Then, the urge to get to work again assailed her and she inspected the little old play house that the loving family had not for a moment thought of demolishing even though childhood days of the big family had passed some ttn years. It lay at the edge of the garden on the side street and would be in an ideal spot for a studio-shop. Lanky Dickinson, who had built it, even then in his teens had shown promise of the big work he was to do in later life as an architect. Wilma gazed at the quaint little fireplace, the small windows draped in some lace that her mother had salvaged from the scrap bag, the small door on real hinges and the porch. That porch had been Lanky's especial pride, and he and Wilma bad planted a tiny shoot of rambler rose with hopes that had been more than realized. It had been only with generous pruning that the rose had been prevented from swamping the entire dwelling with crimson flowers. As Wilma stood contemplatively •within her oii play house where she and Lanky had spent so many joyous days, memories swept over her. "I simply won't nave anyone but Lanky touch -this place, if he's not to be found I will just build an entire new one," she told herself and wondered how best to get in touch with Lanky. The problem solved ' itself, for Lanky, now known as Lawrence Dickinson, had also come home. ~ Wilma was making a before-breakfast tour of the dew-laden garden when looking up she saw a longlegged man with a strand of black hair straggling across the sunniest of blue eyes gazing at her over the hedge. ri^ "Lankyl'V-ww) "Snub»!M s V A second Miter-tie was over the hedge and was holding both Wilma's hands and looking into her eyes wtth much the same look he had always kept for Snubs when they had played as sweethearts in days gone by. "But I'm not Snubs anymore," said Wilma blushing hotly. "I'm Miss Wilma Wentworth, decorator." Lanky laughed a boyish, warmhearted laugh. "And I am not Lanky, Miss Wentworth, but Lawrence Dickinson,' architect, F.L.G., P.H.I., etc., etc,* They both laughed and unconsciously moved to Ward the play house of memories.' "Lanky--I \yant it mad« a bit bigger, and t don't: Wimt anyone but you to--" ' t f-; "Snubs--If you let anyone but me build a stifk on 4that house I'll--" "Mind your head, Lanky--remember you've grown upward a bit." "Upward maybe btit not away," said Lanky, when they were both within the tiny house, "and remember, Snubs, you were my sweetheart then and I'm not giving up anything thai was mine."

Incidentally, these great birds, which can be buffeted for days by ocean gales, become very seasick when standing on the dock of a moving ship. Heat in Bedroom Turning off the heat in the bodroom at night will save fuel, but will not make much difference in sleep, according to Dr. Donald A. Laird, author. On extremely cold nights, however, sleepers are restless unless there is heat or flannel night garments. In pioneer days the tomahawk was a favorite weapon of both Indian and settler. It also was used by the Indians as a ceremonial symbol. They buried the hatchet when they mad* peace and dug it up again on tfcii| tweaking out of war.

The tenacious grip of the Gila monster cannot be broken by a man, without a prying instrument. Dollar Sign Origin The dollar sign, believed by sofne to have originated as a monogram of "U. S." has been traced by others to the writing of "p" over "S" in an early abbreviation of pesos.

Not so long ago, Florenz Ziegfeld opened his "Follies" on the roof of the New Amsterdam theater. Florenz Ziegfeld is now merely a memory and his "Follies" are produced by the Schuberts. The New Amsterdam theater is stili on Forty-second street near Seventh avenue, but instead of housing revues or dramas, it is now a "grind movie" house. A block away at Forty-second and Broadway is the Knickerbocker building. It was once the Knickerbocker hotel. Caruso lived there as did other notables. Many a New Yorker, a bit gray about the temples now, recalls the Knickerbocker bar. It always overflowed at cocktail hour, gentlemen gathering there to imbibe before the picture of old King Cole. Old timers also remember the Roman Gardens. Today there is a flea circus where the Roman Gardens attracted elite patronage. OGLE & HO gNTEBS RACE FOR OOUiprYTREASURER There were several legitimate theaters on Forty-second street in the past. Today, the legitimate theaters have been turned into burlesque houses. The name "burlesque" is taboo in New York. So what once was "burlesque" is a "girly show." The jokes are about the same and the girls, who work the same long hard hours, look just as tired. Also the same class of patronage is attracted. The same morons, or maybe replacements, still stare at pictures out front or in lobbies. Uniformed young men, usually tall, chant before the doors just as they have been doing through the years. They go on and on, re peating the same phrases until it seem»-tnat they must be operated electrically or at least wound up. There is one difference, however Strip teasers are no longer featured on Forty-second street though they have made their appearance in night-clubs. Panhandlers, hard-faced' women, furtive-eyed men, chiselers, confidence men, touts, bookmakers and down-and-outers abound on Fortysecond street, especially in the long block between Seventh and Eighth avenues. After nightfall, there is noise, confusion and hard bright lights. Pedestrians usually move along slowly. Diversion seekers are plentiful, their destination usually one Of those "grind houses" where films, old on Broadway, are shown without intermissions and a seat may be occupied for hours for only a dime. Song sheets are in demand on Forty-second street and sellers of the Hobo News find many customers. Pitchmen also do well. Pushcart men are usually chased by cops. But there are bootblacks every wheraw. • * Between BrbStf^sy and'Sixth avenue, there are no "girly shows," museums or "grind houses." There is only one motion picture house in the block. The stores and shops resemble those of, Broadway. For many years Drake's restaurant was an essential part of the block. A big place, it ran through to Fortythird street. Labor troubles brought an end to its career. Another restaurant that also ran through the block has moved over to Broadway. The basement restaurant of Bunn Bros., where Teddy used to dish up the most delectable oyster stew in town, is now also a memory though there was a time when more than 8,000 customers were served during the luncheon period. From Sixth avenue for a considerable distance on oast, Fortysecond street really goes metropolitan. One of the largest department stores in the city is in the block between Fifth and Sixth avenues, also various office buildings, including Salmon Towers. Going on east, there are Grand Central, the new airlines terminal, the Commodore hotel, the Channin, Chrysler, Lincoln and other big office buildings. The street deteriorates again beyond Third avenue and finally there/are tenements and the Ea«t river. / Westward from Ninth avenue, Forty-second street quickly shades off into old brownstone fronts almost all of which are rooming houses, hole-in-the-wall business placfs and at 'Ik st the - piers of the Weehawkfn Jerry well known to some thousands of Jersey residents. * • • • In Irving place is an old tavern O.

Howell of Woodstock will be a candidate for the Re< publican nomination for Treasurer of McHenry county at the April primaries, to succeed C. Frank Daly, who will retire next December and cannot succeed himself for that office. A week ago the newspapers made the announcement that Supervisor J. G. Stevens of Richmond will also be a candidate for County Treasurer in the Republican primaries. Mr. Howell was raised on a farm. He came to this county with his parents from Ogle county, 111., as a young lad, locating on a farm near Woodstock. He attended the Woodstock public schools. Following his high school, graduation he was employed in the State Bank of Woodstock for about a year, when he left with Company G for service on the border in Texas during the trouble with Mexico. This was from June, 1916. to February, 1917. Only a few months later Howell was again called out with other members of Campany G for service in the World war. He entered this service as a private in June, 1917/and was finally discharged following the close of the war and his return home with the rank of Second Lieutenant. Soon after his return home Howell entered the employ of the J. P. Alt Clothing company, and after six years he purchased the business from Mr. Alt in 1925. He discontinued the business during the acute months of the depression seven years later. Since that time he has been employ' ed with the Standard Oil company and more recently as a representative of the Prudential Life Insurance company, in which work he was very successful, but for the last few years he has been in partial retirement under the care of a physician. During this period of partial idleness he has given much time to the work of service officer of McHenry county for the American Legion, having charge of relief work among veterans and their families under the provisions of the Bogardus law. Last summer he was elected Commander of Peter Umathum Post of Woodstock for the current fiscal year. Mr. Howell has always taken a prominent part in public affairs, but has never before sought public office He is an enthusiastic Republican. Mr. Howell'B friends believe he is well qualified to perform the responsible duties of Treasurer of McHenry county. He has had much experience in clerical responsibilities, beginning with his first employment in the State Bank. He fully appreciates the importance of the office and if elected he pledges to give the best of his ability to the proper performance of its responsibilities. Mr. Howell's family consist* of himself, his wife and two sons. Mrs. Howell is a daughter of Mr £, A. Sanger of Woodstock.
