A New York editor sent one of his sob-sister reporters to get a feature article about the great man. Naturally the young lady was keenly interested in finding out, if die could, why the author was a bachelor. He happens to be a somewhat reticent individual, and inwardly he regarded her questioning as somewhat impertinent. But he didn't show it. He merely used his imagination. Putting on an expression of great sadness, he said: "As a very young man, I was madly in love witha beautiful girl. So great was our -love that when fate separated us fbr a few weeks and sent me on a prosaic 'mission to a distant city, I telegraphed messages of my devotion and affection every morning. "The few weeks which I expected would accomplish my mission extended into several months. But my devotion never flagged. Every day the same messenger boy knocked at the girl's door at exactly the same hour, bearing my message of undying love." He paused and ^gazed reflectively into the distance. There were tears in his eyes. The sob-sister, with pencil poised, was deeply affected. There were tears in her eyes, too. Finally she broke the long silence. "Go on," she said. "Tell me what happened# Did she die?" "No," said the author, grimly. "She married the messenger boy." ROUGH STUFF WACSarge--Your gas mask is on wrong. WACPrivate--What do you mean?

This bland tropical fruit is no. longer a luxury,* but has become a staple American food. The avocado has traveled up from Middle America and found new homes in California jand Florida. It still thrives in the lands from v/here it traveled; the mountain valleys and fringing plateaus of Honduras; the westward lowland plain of Guatemala and large sections' of Mexico. The Mexican avocado is highly resistant to cold, making it exceptionally desirable for North American planting. The West Indies-Guatemala avocado Js remarkable for its unusual quality and size.

The Lilymoor Property and Land Owners Association is planning; a Mid-Summer Dance to be field at the . Lilymoor Country Club August 4. The committe promises us even a better time than we had at their last Hallowe'en Dance. (And we had a wonderful time there.) Remember the date, folks, August #4. A sweet dark haired baby girl made the acquaintance of her Lily Lake neighbors this week. She, is the seven-pound daughter of Betty and Roy Pierotti, born Tuesday, July 10, in the Wbodstock hospital. So many pretty names have been suggested for her, that, as yet, little Miss Pierotti has no first name. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Meehan officially opened their lake home with an "open house" for over 100 guests Sunday. As friends and neighbors from Lily Lake, McHenry and Chicago came in during the day, Ed proved himself a master at concocting Baccardi cocktails, while Mrs. Meehan's buffet luncheon came in for a goodly share of acclaim. Lilymoor neighbors presented the Meehar.s with a beautiful Cory coffee-maker on a mirrored tray. There were so many other lovely things received that we just couldn't mention them jail. The Meehans wish to take this opportunity to publicly thank all their many friends. Mr. and Mrs. Schandlemeyer, Mr. and Mrs. Harold Meehan, their two children, and Miss Virginia Meehan were among the Ed Meehans' house guests for the week. We hope to be seeing quite a lot of WAC Pvt. Louella Wallis since she has been stationed at the Walter Reed hospital in Chicago. . WAC Pvt. Cicily Ryan stopped in Sunday to say hello to everyone, and to tell us that she is also stationed close by--in Michigan--where she is attached to the R. A. A. V. A1 Ryan and his daughters, Mary $nd Jane,, are spending the week here. That folks around here are considerate of servicemen was attested again last Saturday when Wm. Lipson, at the bus station waiting for his nephew, Pvt. Wm. Lipson, of Chanute Field, was met by John Dreymiller. "Say," said Jonn, "if you're looking f^r a soldier, he's up at your house." It. so happened that, when Pvt. Lipson, could not get into an over crowded bus, he hitch-hiked out h^re. His lift carried him to Crystal Lake. In getting back from there, who should pick him up but Mr. Dreymiller, who has been a friend of the Lipson family for over sixteen years. Then, on the way to the bus station Sunday night they passed the Gilman home. "If that soldier is looking for a lift" said the Giimans, "we have room for him in our car." Pretty good people, those Lily Lakers, eh? Among the other Lipson family guests were Mrs. Lipson's brother and his family, Lt. Comdr. and Mrs. Maurice J. Plensker, and their son, Harvey, out for the weekend, and Miss Rosilyn Elkin, who is spending a two-week vacation with the Misses * Jeanne and Myra Lipson., The results of the Ladies' League election of last Wednesday are as follows: Pres., H. Einspar; vicepres., H. Lannes; sec., G. Milinac; treas., K. Wegener. We wish all the officers success in the coming year. The ladies are planning a card party and luncheon for August 25. Their annual dinner party will be held at Rudy's place tnis year. August 8, at 7 p.m. .All paid-up members are invited at the club's expense. Others may lAtend by making arrangements to cover the cost of their dinner. Reservations must be inlby August 1. Phone or send them to Helen Lannes, Route 2, McHenry, phone 674-M-2. "Wte were very sorry to hear that Mrs. Estelle Boro was rushed to a Waukegan hospital Sunday morning, seriously ill. Take care of yourself 'Stelle, and get well soon. Weekend guests at the Joe Yaeger home were Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Yaeger, who were joined Sunday afternoon by Mr. and Mrs. Frits. That broad grin on our boys' faces Sunday evening was because they had won the afternoon's baseball game, 7 to 6, from the Camp Duncan team. Keep up the good work, fellows. " Mary and Vine Schiavoni'aft place will cease to be a familiar landmark under that name, starting Friday, when thyp new tavern owners will take ovw.

Hostesses for the next Lilymoor Ladies get-together will be Mrs. Warner and Mrs. Sunde. * The regular monthly meeting of the L. L. B. C. will take place Saturday evening, July 21. Everyone is urged to attend. The Walter Einspars' guests during the past week included Mr. and Mrs, Howard Voile and Mrs. Lottie Bransford. ' .

There is Erwin Sarley who celebrated on July 7; Miss June Evere t, who entertained the John Milihac family in Chicago, Sunday, in. honor of her birth date; Jirpmy Meehan, who celebrated his thirteenth birthday anniversary with d party at Mrs. Landl's home (the ice cream* and birthday cake were really super-jelicioUs); Victor Bassi, Sr., who received congratulations on July 17, and, last but not lea$t, Swenski, Jr., who'll celebrate his twelveth birthday July 21.

U ARRY shovad through the 11 crowded streetcar and got off just a Mode from tha Recorder's office. A lady shopper's bag, full of hard objects, caught him in the side as ha squirmed through the mob on the platform. He grimaced and proceeded across the street. There was always something about Washington, ha thought. Lucky if nothing worse happened to you. Then he remembered, on the verge of lapsing into the old bitter thinking. "Peg!" he said aloud, and her name rang a ball in his heart. Of course everything was different now. When he reached the building, he peered through tha heavy lenses of his glasses at the lettering over the lintel. The myopia that had put him in 4-F made it difficult to distinguish the words, but finally he read: "District of Columbia." Harry pushed open the door and went in. He was thinking: Well, it won't be tha Mime old queuu here, because the papers say this busi-i ness isn't rushing. When he saw the sign his mind raced back over the year he'd been in the Capital. Ona word was responsible. "Recorder's Office: Follow the Line of Arrows," the poster said. That word "line"! It seemed as if it had haunted him ever since he'd come to a Government Bureau. His life had been bounded and hounded by lines from the time he'd stepped off the train at Union Station. Right then and there it had begun. He'd gone to the baggage room for his luggage--and waited his turn for an hour. "Sorry, it isn't here," the clerk had told him finally. He'd gone back three times--and always stood interminably--before he retrieved it. Each little bit of daily routine was slow and difficult. You were held up everywhere. He'd heard the city was appalling, but he hadn't believed it was as bad as all that--until he'd lived, if that was the word, through six months of it. You came to your job halfwhipped. And them, if you worked for the Administration . . . but he'd promised Peg he wouldn't think that way any more. Again her name made his heart ping. Peg had lifted, him out of it all. Just over a month ago he'd been ready to leave, to shake off the whole sickening business. There was the time he'd stood for a solid hour and a half before his favorite restaurant, waiting to treat himself to his once-a-month steak in the swanky Brillon cafe. He'd been famished and almost drooling in anticipation when the head waiter beckoned. "One, sir? This way, sir." When Harry gave his order, what he heard was, "Steak, sir? No steaks, sir. Sold out. Now, the cheese souffle. . . ." What was worse, he was pursued even to the office. Harry soon discovered that here, too, there were lines . . . imperceptible . . . of red tape and protocol and frustration/- You tried to push an important piece of work--and you ran into invisible barbed wire that stretched everywhere and you couldn't find your way out of the maze. Then, oddly, it was red tape that had brought him and Peg together, just when he had been planning to quit. "Mrs Herbert?" She was very businesslike--a- brisk little figure in a simple, attractive brown linen dress--when she first stood before him. Harry looked up--and immediately was enchanted. "Yes, I'm Herbert," he admitted. "What can I do for you?" "I'm O'Brien, from Procurement, Mr. Herbert." She waved a sheaf of papers and her tone was sharp. "Do you realize that this agency requires five copies of authorizations and you've prepared only four?" - "And so tha war effort will bog down,, eh?" "Mr. Herbert, fbr your information, documents prepared here must follow a certain line. You must, adhere to it." y The^vtford "line" did it. "Sit down, Miss O'Brien," he said earnestly then. And in no time at all, because her sympathy was as Irish as her name, she'd been won over. She said impulsively, "I'm an oldtimer. I think I can help you, if you Jike." He hadn't known, of course, what was to come, the love that would grow between them, but he'd reached in his desk when she'd gone and, taking out the resignation he had written, carefully destroyed it. Following the arrows, Harr^y rounded the last corner. This would be it! He didn't feel a bit nervous. He and Peg had laughed when tliey read about weddings dropping off in- Washington. "It's one place you won't have-to stand in line," she said, "because it says here that for months the Marriage License Bureau hasn't had enough to keep it busy." . A guard's heavy hand came down on Harry's shoulder. "Just a minute, buddy," he said, "fall in line over there, if you want a license." "Why, why," Harry stuttered, .blinking at all the people ahead of him. "I thought. . . ." '"Yeah, I know," the man said patiently, "but this is June, buddy." ,ItilMB . at 'iMarast tha lHae af the af Years Ago a sart of Mrs. W. aai w<lF be pleased SIXTY YEARS AGO Tha steamboat. excursion to the lakes on Sunday was an enjoyable affair.
