Mrs. Theresa Schultz is the local chairman and has a crew of about eighteen women who will be working with her to make this an outstanding yiear 'I for collections. Our village, along with the city of McHenry, has an excellent record according to the national figures and it would be wonderful if we could TOP past performances.

If you will not be home, your donation can be left in advance at the home of Mrs. Schultz or at the home of your reporter. Envelopes will also be left, and these can be mailed to McHenry State Bank.

One-third Around the World! %) This was the distance travelled by Lt. Cmdr. Jake Levesque on his recent tour of duty with the Navy. The children and I met him at Glenview oil Saturday afternoon as the three R5D transport planes came, in for a landirig. An nil' of festivity prevailed all around base operatiors with a hut;e sign mounted over the door proclaiming "welcome home"! ® Squadron VR724 wns based at Port L.vautey in th£ city of Kepilra, Morocco. (Seems a<? though the French part has been eliminated). Being well versed in the French language, "our hero" had no trouble making himself understood and created much good will with the natives. Although he was busy as exa ecutive officer of the squadron • which required him to spend a good deal of time at the siation, he did manage a trip to the lovely city of Madrid, roamed through the "medinahs" -public market places in Rabat, where he saw Zachary Scott, (he film star making purchases. Jake and his party also viewed the changing of the ^ Black Guard in front of the palace of the Prince of Morocco, son of Mohammed V, who died last year. An impressive visit was the one to GibralteY which is built on the rock of! Huge walls of • granite surround the city and embattlements are located in the walls about 300-400 feet high and can noi be visited or approached. £ Some of the other fellows were able to visit Rome, Naples. Palma and Pisa in Italy. Jake says it is rumored that. Conrad Hilton is going to purchase the leaning tower and then it will be known as the "tiltin* Hilton"! Could this be v. --. Some of the "weekend warriors" managed a trip to Nice, France. All in all, it was a spectacular journey, and one which doesn't even happen once in every lifetime. Page Nine true' Village Board The next meeting of the president and trustees will be held Monday, Feb. 26, at 8 p.m. in the beachhouse. These meetings are open to the public. Slips, Fall and Breaks Herb Roeske has good reason to curse the violent winter we have endured. Saturday, while visiting a local lumber yard, he slipped on the ice, and fell and broke his leg in three places. He was taken to McHenry hospital where he was still a patient on Monday morning. Tanned and Rested Jean McDonald's wrist is much improved due to the therapy of the baths at Hot Springs and the warm sunshine of Miami, Fla. She and Hughie returned last Thursday in time to be greeted by Sunday's snowstorm. Judging from their lovely suntans, they didn't have too many, cloudy days. Jean is concerned because she hasn't heard from "son" Edward Caron, who is stationed in Germany, in quite some time. Maybe this will bring results. During the McDonald's absence, the "store" was well tended by May and Butch Kennenberg. Speaking of May, she was thrilled beyond words with a lovely Valentine from grandson, JohtfHPadgett, who is stationed at Fort Knox. A thoughtful gesture, indeed!

Every citizen is-- or should be-- concerned wiih this public problem. Many of our people are making things that are sold in competition with imported items. Everybody buys and uses things that are produced in other countries. WHAT DO WE IMPORT? We import thousands of items and materials,, ranging from abacca (fiber for rope and twine) and automobiles, to wood pulp and wool. We import annually food and beverages valued at $3.2 billion. The big item is SI billion worth of coffee. We also import substantial amounts of sugar, meats, fruits, vegetables, nuts, cocoa, dairy products and many othet;.«foods. Imports of other' (nonfood) consumer goods amount to $2.4 billion a year. Imports of other products (mostly industrial supplies, materials and machinery) amount to over $9.0 billion annually. These include petroleum and it s products, worth $1.5 billion: paper, $1.0 billion: and many other, materials. All together, in the fiscal year ending last June 30, we bought foreign products worth S14.7 billion. We bought them because some were not available from domestic sources. Others were cheaper, or better, than corresponding items produced here. But foreign trade is not oneway traffic. Last year we exported more than we bought. Our exports were valued at $19.4 billion, or nearly onethird more than we imported. WHAT DO WE EXPORT" Tn the latest fiscal year we exnorted farm products valued at. S1.S billion. We sold other consumer goods worth $1.3 billion. But the biggest sales to foreign countries were $6.1 billion worth of industrial materials and $6.4 billion of machinery, transportation equipment and other capital items. WHY DO WE TRADE WITH OTHER NATIONS? We trade because it is the easiest way to get many of the things we need and want. Each nation, like each community, has certain natural and acquired advantages over its neighbors. For example, we have big advantages over Japan in producing cotton, over Canada in producing fruits and vegetables, over England in producing tobacco and over the Netherlands in producing soybeans and corn. We have advantages in producing many industrial materials and manufactured items wherfc we can use cur natural resources and big machines. People in other countries have some advantages over us. Seme have climatic advantages favoring the production,of coffee, cocoa, bananas, sugar, rubber and hemp. Others have minerals that are scarce in this country. Some countries have advantages over us in producing manufactured items requiring large amounts of labor-- such as watches, cam'eras, dishes and toys. We can live better and easier by producing -and exporting-- the things for which we have advantages and buying from others the things they can produce more cheaply than we. If we buy less from other countries, they will be forced to buy less from us. The result will be unemployment in our most efficient industries and highly paid occupations. Most other countries are smaller or less well developed than the United States. Therefore, they are most dependent upon foreign trade than we are. If they are restricted in their trade with us, they will be forced to trade more with, and become more dependent upon, other nations--including those not friendly to the United States. Surely, it seems to us, it will be to our advantage to reduce our tariffs and other barriers to trade with other nations. L. H. Simerl Department of Agricultural Economics NEW INSECTICIDE An insecticide that will kill , some leaf-eating insects when applied to the Soil, injected in the trunks of trees, or painted on the bark has been reported by the Illinois Natural History Survey. The material still is being used experimentally and is1 not on the market. The new insecticide has shown great promise against the bagworm, the mimose webworm, and other pests of the honey locust, an important shade tree nowbeing widely planted in Illinois. It has given good control t^f juniper midge on juniper. On the basis of preliminary studies, entomologists anticipate that its use may be extended to insect pests of oak. elm, and perhaps other trees and shrubs.
