Mrs. Shepard was born Ruby Claxton, on the farm now owned by Jimmy Lennon, east of Mc- Henry. Her late sister was married to our well known Mc- Henryite, John Dreymiller. Mr. Shepard is employed, as engineer at the Edwal Laboratories in Ringwood. He takes a justifiable pride in making modern improvements in this gracious 100-year-old home of theirs which was ontfe the Bradley home. He has modernized the kitchen into an up-to-date room but left it with a spaciousness that is reminiscent of the kitchen of a generation or two back, which was really the center of family activities. Thus he has happily combined the best of the old with the finest of the new. The Shepards have a son, Howard, now living in Memphis, Tenn., and a daughter, Mrs. Alan Ainger, of Hebr6n. There are four grandchildren to enjoy their doting grandparents. Mrs. Shepard finds time to take an active interest in the affairs of her church and belongs to the W.S.C.S. S*e is a member of a comrr.'jaily organization known as the Home Circle and the lighter side of her nature revels in the meetings of a bunco club, which, was organized twenty-seven years ago and still has many of its charter members. - Mrs. Shepard has one otbei deep passion and that is fop flowers. This reflects another facet of calm and pleasant personality that is Mrs. Shepard. Marriage Licenses John Wolowic, Druce Lake, and Dcirothy Blake, McHenry.

This registration will give the Civil Defense administration a large pool ,of women experienced in volunteer service work on which to draw to fill various posts in the civil defense organization. All 14,000 local Auxiliary units have been asked to register their members with the local civil defense director for assignment to training and duties best suited to the; individual's abili ties. . •' ' On the registration cards the civil defense volunteers list the occupations, and any training, experience or hobby they may have of value for civil defense service. They give their physical handicaps, if any, and the hours at which they can be available for training. The Civil Defense administration has called for 17,500,000 volunteers to complete the nation-w i d e organization needed in this country. Civil defense is everybody's job. We all know the danger that the long-range airplane and atomic bomb have brought to every part of the country and it is time we did something about it. By civil defense organization and training we can be ready to save lives and minimize the effects should an attack come. The better prepared we are the less likelihood' that .an enemy will launch an attack against us. Everyone should register for civil defense service. In McHenry, Al Blake and M. L. Schoenholtz have been actively investigating means of defense. They have sent students to the Red Cross classes and have checked on fire-fighting equipment for the "different sections. They have found pi ft raj where ahy injured may be framed and have done other things; to safeguard us as much tia possible in • the event of an attack which we sincerely *pray may never occur.
