He is being bothered by some of these dogs, and beginning the first of March he is going to take matters into his own hands. If you read this and you know someone who lets his dog run, ask him to read this item. It's a shame an animal may have to suffer because their owner does not respect the rights of other people to protect their properties from damage caused by their animal. So please let a word to the wise be sufficient. BIRTHDAYS A very happy birthday wish goes out to Donald Leske. He will be celebrating on Jan. 31. HOSPITAL NOTES Friends and neighbors of Dovie Franks will be very happy to hear that she is home from the hospital and praises the McHenry Rescue Squad for the services they gave in removing her and Edna O'Donnell from the automobile following the accident.

Girl Scouts Brave Coldest Weather On Camping Trip It proved to be the coldest weekend of the year when Girl Scout Cadette Troop 421 of Wonder Lake packed their sleeping bags and took off for a camping trip to Chapman Hills near East Troy, Wis. The temperatures dipped to nearly 30 degrees below zero on Friday night and with the accompanying winds, it was impossible to keep the lodge warm enough to be com­ fortable. The Cadettes gathered near the roaring fireplace to[ play games, puzzles and cards and had fun despite the cold. Though the girls proved to be of sturdy pioneer stock and were ready to stay on, the troop leaders were more prac­ tical and brought the group home a day early, on Saturday. r C\\\c^®nS GRADE A 30* WHOLE FRYERS CUT UP m FIELDCREST CHICKEN 1/29/72 coupon Breasts 6-12 oz. ij# DEAN'S COTTAGE CHEESE MELLO CRISP BACON 49* /M.HIJ.l'lf/# HILLS BROS.
