DORR SHERMAN 338-2410 Woodstock, 111. 3-7 thru 6-6-63-TF Twice Told Tales Fifty Years Ago Taken FronrThr Fltesi Of March 6, 1913 Prof. F. M. Goodman* who maintains a beautiful home near McHenry, has resigned his position as professor of botany and materia medica in the U. of I. School of Pharmacy in Chicago. Prof. Goodman was a member of the second graduating class of the old Chicago College of Pharmacy, the class of 1871, and was the1 only student graduated that year. In addition to his ability as a teacher his talent as an artist has often been recognized and he has presented several portraits in oil to the school. From "Quarter of a Century" comes the item that friends of John Blake were somewhat alarmed at his strange actions on Friday morning last. They watched him harness his cow and attempt to milk his horse and when he took a pail of water and tin cup and passed it around insisting that all should take a drink they immediately summoned a jury and were about to try him for lunacy. But when he struck up and sang "Where Is My Boy Tonight" the mystery was solved. A ten pound boy had arrived at his home the night before and father and son are doing well. For heaven's sake, will we ever have protection in McHenry? It was with this sort of feeling that the audience left the Central opera house after the performance of St. Elmo last Sunday evening. Such loud talking, whistling and general disorder as was displayed by a few pin heads all but put the show out of commission. Members of the company declared that they had traveled all over the United States but never saw such disorder during a performance. Isn't this a grand reputation for McHenry? Manager Smith informs the village that if he isn't given better police protection McHenry will be given a jolt from which she will not recover soon. Deaths the past week intruded Mrs. Kate Thuriwell Who died at the home of her son, Frank, in this village Friday evening after a lingering illness. Mrs. James Hughes, mother of six children, who passed away on Sunday at the age of 39 years and Mrs. John J. Buch, a well known citizen whose death occurred Sunday morning at the age of 52 following a long period of poor health. Forty Years Ago Taken From The Files Of March 8, 1928 From quarter of a century news comes the item that the Nichols block, the first story of which is occupied by the Plaindealer office and the second story by Dr. J. L. Abt, as a residence and office, has been sold to Jacob Justen, consideration $2,000. Mrs. John Karls, daughter, Evelyn, and Miss Rosina Karls, who are quarantined in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Nicholls with scarlet fever, are on the gain and the quarantine is supposed to be lifted soon. Charles G. Frett, a former McHenry business man and now a resident of Aurora, has returned to his "first love" and is once more conducting a meat market having completed a new store building in the city recently. The custom of opening the two banks here on Saturday evenings has been discontinued. McHenry was the only town in McHenry county which enjoyed the Saturday night banking privileges. The regular monthly meeting of the Altar and Rosary society of St. Patrick's church was held at K of C hall March 1, with newly elected officers presiding. After business transacted the ladies busied themselves tying comforters for the fall bazaar after which a delicious angel food cake, donated by Mrs. McCabe, was raffled and won by Mrs. Peter Doherty. The ham donated by O. B. Oberstad raffled at the home of the president, Mrs. M. J. Walsh, on Feb. 22, brought the neat sum of $25 and was won by Mrs. H. J. Schaefer. John Scheid, Sr., who disposed of his farm near Ingleside, has moved onto one of the George J. Sayer farms. He has purchased the Stephen Heimer house, formerly the Waite cottage, and Green street where the family plan to make their home eventually. Miss Marguarite Frances Bonslett, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Bonslett, passed away at the family home Friday, after a year's illness at the age of 22 years.

L. Gordon Features, 9th floor, Resor buildings 37 W. Seventh street, Cincinnati 2, Ohio, sending along a stamped self-addressed enwlnna * Q. How can I restore an aluminum skillet or pan which has become warped cn the bottom and does not rest level on the stove? A. Heat the pan until a drop of water dances on it. Then take it to the workshop and turn it upside down. Place a board on it and hit the board quite hard three or four times. Your pan should then be as flat as when new. Q. How can I improvise a substitute hot water bottle? A. Pour salt Into a skillet and heat it in the oven until it's almost at the smoking point. Then pour the salt into a bag, and you'll find it will serve as well as a rubber hot water bottle. Q. What can I do about some grease spots which have been allowed to become well set in some fabrics? A. Try combatting these with more of the same! Rub some fresh grease into the spots, then wash immediately. Q. How can I add more life to my nylons? A. By giving the hose a freezing treatment. Wet them, put them into a plastic bag, and placc in a deep freeze or in the freezing compartment of your refrigerator. Take them out after they have frozen, and let them thaw. Then squeeze out, and hang up to dry. Q. Is there any way I can remedy a broken coil on my hotplate? A. Try hooking the two ends of the break together, putting a pinch of borax on the joint, and turning on the heat. The coil will usually weld itself together very nicely. Q.

Q. How can I stiffen the bristles of a hairbrush after washing it? A. Dip the bristles Into milk and water, ^using equal parts of each, then dry, preferably before a fire. Dipping the bristles into a strong solution of alum water is also effective. Q. How can I keep cheese at Schaefer's alleys and a turtle stew as important parts of the entertainment.

Entering tfie Department of State in Washington on July 11, 1929, as an editorial assistant, Mr. Barron immediately evidenced the qualities that led a former employer to describe him as "a shark for work and a deep student of history and economics, earnest, loyal and efficient." Tickets for this program will be available at the door.

STATE UNIFICATION A regional unification plan will integrate the administrative services of the Department of Public Health, Youth Commission, Illinois Public Aid Commission, Division of Services for Crippled Children and Division of Vocational Rehabilitation. The plan will be effective July 1. "When the unification plan is completed," Gov. Otto Kerner said, "we feel confident that it will result in more efficient and better integrated services to the' people of Illinois. "In many instances," Gov. Kerner said, "a family literally had to run all over the countryside before it caught up with the proper agency to handle its case. This family not only lost time, but the agencies involved were duplicating their efforts, especially if a family was eligible for more than one state-administered program.'.'

Open Saturday and Sunday 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Daily 8 to 5 pan. or Ph. 338-4332 -- 338-2110 The Drivers Seat According to a recent report by an association of insurance companies, there is only one patrolman for every 120 miles of rural roads in the United States. Such scarcity of highway patrolmen is one of the contributing factors in the high rural death rate. Last year, according to the National Safety Council, 27,700 died on rural roads and 10,500 died in urban accidents. Some states--notably Minnesota and Iowa have tried "saturation" programs, which call for sending a large number of policemen into a certain area to put heavy patrols on those roads and make every driver aware of many police looking over his shoulders in case he violates a law. But this doesn't solve the highway patrol problem. To safurate one area, you must reduce the number of police in others. This means that one problem is solved but others might be created. Some states use airplanes to aid patrols, but on-the-ground cars must supplement any effort by airplanes, for it does no good to spot a violator if you cannot stop him on the ground. Too, airplanes are relatively useless at night. The solution seems to demand that overall police forces be increased, with enough available to give adequate patrol for all areas and saturation patrols for some. This costs money, but then so does an accident. Last year, according to available statistics, the United States lost $7,300,000 to automobile accidents. DR. HENRY FREUND OPTOMETRIST v At 1224 N.
