'McHenry County Title company, Woodstock, has announced that the company has purchased property located at the northwest corner of Jackson - and Throop streets in Woodstock. The land, which was purchased from the First Baptist church of Woodstock, will be used for construction of new offices and title , plant of the McHenry County ^ Title company. The First Baptist church will stay in possession of the property until Jan. 1, 1957, and services will be continued until that time when the structure will be torn down. American Legion sponsored Explorer Scouts of Troop 162 and Post 662 spent a weekend as members, of the Kishwaukee Kloud Kapers. They pitched their tents and performed their explorer activities entirely in the clouds, high up on the Blue Mounds of Wisconsin. They came down out of the clouds to' visit Cave of the Mounds and Little Norway. Their good turn was in saving the life of a lost dog and returning it to its rightful owners. One of their problems was a lost boy hunt in the woods in the clouds. This took a strange turn and became so realistic that Knute Nielsen, district leader in charge, became frantic, or something bordering that, with fear. Mr. Kirk took the McHenry group and said they endured the clouds, the cold, the rain and other hardships like veteran campers. For Better Results McHenry.
