McHENRY CHOWS WON TROPHIES IN RECENT MID WEST DOG SHQW Retaining the characteristic expressionless face of the chow, Linnchow Huchu and Nee Gee Linnchow show little emotion [over the trophies which they won j at the recent Mid-West Specialty j Dog Show, held at Navy Pier.

Huchu was also presented a trophy and a red ribbon second place in "American bred black males" class.

The Women's Auxiliary of the McHenry Post, American Legion, will present this year's fitial showing and sale of veterans' crafts 011 Saturday; Dec. 3, at the Dickow grocery store on Green street. The sale is part of the Illinois American Legion rehabilitation service to our veterans, who need us most and toward whom we must feel a responsibility always. The objects included in the showing and sale come in a wide price range, from thirty cents to ten dollars and are created to meet the demand of today's living. The Women's Auxiliary suggests that among the objects offered buyers will find objects suitable tor party grab-bags, prizes, gifts for personal use and Christmas giving. Mrs. Dickow has made her store window again x available to the Women's Auxiliary of the American Legion for display and the sale on Saturday, that the residents of our community may avail themselves of selecting and buying veteran-made wares so close to home. The sale will start at 10 a.m. and will continue through the day until store closing time; everyone will have a choice of timn of day in which to come and buy. Aid Vet* The Women's Auxiliary feels that it is their constant respphsibility to buy at the veterans' craft sales and to contribute to the veerans' rehabilitation program. The program under the craft exchange helps the men who were not fortunate enough to return to the jobs they held before they w^nt to war, to develop new ^occupations and thus prepare themselves to be in the earning group. In Illinois, the veterans' craft exchange is a pride and a joy. There i« a constantly increasing number, of veteran applicants desiring to exhibit: the skill with which they execute their exhibit projects meets the demand of the most discriminating buyers. The type and quality of the merchandise shown has excited competit'on between communities, to the point of contest and an effort to make enough sales to receive a citation. The Women's Auxiliary of McHenry hopes to be among those at the top. That thev con achieve only through the help of a'l the other people in and around the town.

It is "Our Town", by Thornton Wilder. The little people who make lip the average communitv--what is their secret drama? The merchants. the school children, the housewives? Life is more than inst being horn, living and dying? Thornton Wilder nroved it when he wrote "Our Towi". In this Pulitzer Prize winning play, we meet the town doctor and his family: Dr. and Mrs. Gibbs and their children, George and Rebecca. The audience meets Mr. and Mrs. Webb, the local newspaper editor, too, and children, Emily and Wally. Just two average families drawn from an averagp town, and the play takes them through an average day, and through a lifetime. The humble citizens of "G rovers Corners" find their counterparts in Woodstock, Marengo, Fox Lake--or any small town in America.
