The carbon copy creations can be purchased in both dressy and informal styles and help to instill in the small set a real appreciation of clothes and their care. Many mothers wisely make washing, ironing and mending a joint chore and this is, of course, much more fun when both costumes are identical. An example of the pert sets now available may be seen at left in the floral printed percale fashioned in Florida. Both dresses feature a dainty bodice ruffle and crisp pocketed organdy apron. For lounging, the cotton housecoats at right ring the bell twice. The ladylike robes are .done in a brilliant floral print on a dark ground, bound and buttoned in contrasting color. Full, flattering skirts finish (he luxurious quilted robes. If a number of big-small sets are kept on hand, your daughter may be encouraged to cultivate taste in choosing a costume for the day. In any case it is certain that when mother* and daughter travel together in identical costumes, they will win approving double-takes wherever they go, .A'-. •'T S'\" " . _ n- f' 4 1 , nor w. itsi • s •mm McHENRY PLAINDEALEP * I PUBLIC PULSE ^fPEWER FEDERAL STAMPS 'J?; % ' It was disclosed this past week that federal gaming stamps for slot machines issued in Mc- Henry county for the year ending June 30 dropped more than 80 per Cent over the preceding year. There were fifty-four addresses listed as compared to 248 for the previous twelve months. The decrease throughout the twenty-six counties that ~make up the Internal Revenue district of Northern Illinois wis 75 per cent.

I could not, under existing_con- ; ditionr. execute my duties in the ' best interests of the people of Lakemoor. Not one piece of paper pertaining tfc the workings of the vi'la^e was given me to cftrry out the duties of my office as prescribed by law. I have in my possession a letter dated June 7, 1952 (election date was June 3, 1952) that was handed to me, which would authorize another perron to perform my duties had I signed it. It seems that the office of village clerk is for an individual who will perform the clerk's duties, only upon the dictates of others; . Those conditions I could not ac-v cept and kee) face. I am deeply grateful to the people who supported me in the past election. THOMAS P. BUDIL AN OPEN LETTER TO MAYOR FREUND Mayor George P.

I understand that there are lifeguards staticned at the beach during the week when swimming lessons are given. er of cotton in the western hemisphere. Most of its achievements have been since World War II, according to statistics. Mexico's I95I- 52 crop is the largest fri her history Would it not be possible for the j --approximately one and a quarter city to suppport lifeguard service on weekends and after Aug. 9, when swimming lessons' are c6ncluded? If this is impossible surely the people of McHenry would be willing to sponsor the project through popular subscription. I fear that such an accident can counteract the good will we are trying to cultivate through our annual Marine Day celebration. Trusting^ that you will place million| bales. Even so. Mexican yields are considered rather low compared to United States production. Mexican yields average about half-a-bale an acre. What has boomed cotton output has been the tremendous increase in planting acreage. It has doubled in the past two years.
