Mrs. LOST KEYS RETURNED TO LOCAL RESIDENT THROUGH DAY TAG The Disabled American Veterans organization haB returned a Bet of lost keys to F. H. Matthesuis, Rt. 1, West McHenry. Attached to the keys was a DAV Idento-Tag,miniature license tag for key-rings, which is distributed to 30,000,090 motorists each year. The replica of their state license plate enables the DAV to return 5,000 keys a month from' its national headquarters in Cincinnati. In addition to key-loss insurance, the Idento-Tag, through contributions, enables the DAV to maintain its free rehabilitation service for disabled veterans and their dependents. Last year the DAV obtained more than $18,000,000 in benefits for disabled veterans and their families. The organization has the largest staff of national service officers of any. veterans organization. Keys are returned to owners from all over the world. One of the most unusual key losses and returns saw a Cincinnati grainery employee lose his set in a sack of bats. The keys were found when the sack was opened aboard a freighter in the English Channel enroute to Poland and they made their way back via the- DAV. Tags even brought hack' keys from the war zones. For motorists who wish extra Idento-Tags for extra sets of keys, the DAV has established a special order department, which handles more than 100,00 requests each year. The DAV Idento-Tag plant is owned and operated by the DAV Jn the interests of disabled veterans and employs disabled veterans in their manufacture.

Red Cross Hospital Workers HelpSpeedPatieritRecovery A second janitor, in the person of Frank Zimmermann, has been employed to assist with the many added duties brought about by the opening of the new school addition Mr. Zimmerman, his wife and family (two sons and two daughters) reside in the former Conway place, east of the river, which they purchased some months ago. William Weber is this year's president of the Future /Farmers of America. Other officers are Duane Sehmidtke, vice-president.; Herbert Ejigdahl, secretary; Bernard Peschke, treasurer; Clarence Thelen. reporter; Jerry Cristy, sentinel.

Making Beds In making beds, let the top sheet and bedding hang loosely for greater sleeping comfort--just tuck in easily at bottom, leaving free hang* ing sides. - To Mend Rubber Gloves The modern versfon of "a stitch in time" is the use of cellophane tape to mend rubber gloves. Just rim a strip of the tape on the inside of the glove where the bole appears. The job of rebuilding siclrtoodies and minds of servicemen in military hospitals and restoring them to useful life is carried forward by a team--doctors, nurses, and Red Cross workers. The Red Cross worker may be a medical or psychiatric social worker, a recreation specialist, or a combination of them assisted by a Gray Lady. Military physicians and nurses find that restoring the health of a sick man requires much more than medicine and food. The will to live and the will to do do things must be revived before medical treatment can get in its beneficial work. That's where the Red Cross enters the picture. 1 A young soldier, only 23, was injured in an accident at * munitions proving ground. Half of his face and neck were blown away. Painracked and frightened, he had little taste for ordinary hospital recreation. He loved music, though, so the recreation worker brought to his bedside a radio phonograph and then, by mere chance, found she could satisfy a greater longing. The boy reveaied that he wanted iu write to his young wife those tender, personal things that he hesitated to dictate. Under federal statute and regulations of the Army, the Navy, and the Air Force, the American Red Cross furnishes volunteer aid to the sick and wounded of the armed forces and acts in matter of voluntary relief and as a medium of communication between the people of the United States and their arsted forces. WINS SCHOLARSHIP Red Croks hospital workers assist medical officers with welfare and Recreation programs for military patients. 1 A recording machine was brought J to his bedside, And he found the | words to tell his longings to his j distant wife. It wasn't easy be- j cause his injury had damaged his | vocal chords and articulation was < difficult. But after patient prac- j tice with the hospital worker, he finally poured out his heart to the j record and sent it off to his wife, j To the arthritic, the tubercular, | the rheumatic heart sufferer, doomed to long periods of bed care, the recreational services provided by Red Cross ease their burden of restlessness and discouragement. Nearby chapters in cooperation with other local agencies bring into the hospitals young people from the nearby communities, women who serve as hostesses for parties, young people who dance and play games, all reminding the sick soldier that he is not forgotten by those he served. Norman Hughes - Captain Norman J. Hughes, 18, Huntley, has been awarded a one-year Kroger scholarship-to the University of Illinois, it lias been announced by Robert R.

That was unfortunate because the lady who was eyeing it covetously couldn't bear to think of little birds being killed for their ornamental feathers.

"Don't worry about that," said -the milliner, "those feathers were taken from the carcass of an owl. An owl, you know, lives almost ex clusively on mice.
