KLQNTZ Fifty years in the practice of medicine is the record achieved this year by Dr. C. W. Klontz of 3G03 W. Waukegan roadf McHenry. Forty" of these years have been spent in McHenry, where he has served the needs of a growing population and earned the respect of thousands of patients and the community in general. It was in 1916 that he graduated from the Chicago College of Medicine and Surgery, now known as the Stritch Medical college. He is a native of Mc- Connell, 111., a graduate of Freeport high school and attended the University of Illinois between 1909 and 1912. Fgllowing two years of internship a:t St. Anthony's hospital, Chicago, he set up practice in Richmond in 1917 where he remained until moving to his present home in McHenry nine years later. He recalls with a smile that it was on Jan. 26, 1926, and the temperature was 26 degrees below zero. Assisting him through the years has been his wife, the former Luly Swanson of St. Charles, a registered nurse whom he met and married during his internship^ in Chicago. Another important" day in their life -- a second fiftieth anniversary -- will be marked on Oct. 19 this year when they observe their golden wedding day. Dr. Klontz is a member of the McHenry County Medical association and the American Medical association. He maintains his practice, mostly by appointment, and continues his favorite hobby of gardening. Musin' & Meanderin (Continued From Page 1) changed, for we can't remember a time when almost every school *found it necessary to issue a dress code. One answer may be the greater numbers of students to follow the leader. Another may very well be that a good many parents haven't much control over the actions of their sons and daughters today. 'Tis a sad fact, but true. ATTEND CHURCH SUNDAY DEAR PUBLIC: Every department in our store is filling up with new EXCITING MERCHANDISE. Don't miss out on our BEST SELECTION available at this time.

I When we first sent our cars into this country we ran into a sad situation. We had, as we say in France, sold the • skin of the bear before having put him on the ground. Our cars were not fully prepared to meet the demands of America, where sustained high speeds are normal, where a heavy foot with the clutch is normal, and where people are not used to fixing their own cars. | More than a fair share of things went wrong with our cars. Less than a fair share of our dealers were equipped to deal with what went wrong. | Well, that is actually water over the ' dam, so to speak. i After all, Renault has a reputation to protect as one of the finest and oldest f (1898) and largest (7th) manufacturers of ! automobiles in the world. \ So with all our hearts and with all ; our strength we set out to protect that ' reputation. i We began by selecting our raw materials more carefully. We used a steel of thicker gauge. And the paint and the rust- /proofing and the undercoating we used i more thickly. y We improved also the quality of our quality control, and we added another 25% of fine inspectors. The next step was to improve our dealers.before we sign on any new dealer, we require that he use only Renaulttrained mechanics. * And we make it certain that not one of our cars is sold in this country unless every part for it is available. And, of course, we developed a fantastic car, the Renault 8. But before we introduced it here we ran it around Europe first. And then very quietly on a small scale we brought it here a few years ago. And when we were sure the car was perfect, we improved it, and now this is the car we are talking about. It is the Renault 10. It is probably as comfortable as any " automobile you will ever sit in, "and you can toss in aBentley Continental or a Rolls if you care to," said one critic, but we don't know if that is not too much for us to say.! It has a five-main-bearing engine that you can drive all day at top speed (84 mph) and not do it injury, so.finely is it machined. a . It will average an honest 35 mpg. ^ It has a liquid cooling system that is infinitely quieter than air-cooling, yet it will not boil or freeze. < The Renault 10 is equipped with four doors, four wheel independent suspension, and disc brakes on all four wheels. ' Yet it costs only $ 1647* ; ' ; Now the bear is on the ground. ' If you do not at least test drive the1 Renault 10, you shall have only yourself at whom to swear.
