Covalt, the popular manager of the Wilbur Lumber company at this place, is one of the cusietet^men in '"this man's" town , at the present' time. It's stock taking time at Wilbur's. The p4rty who stole chickens from the Mrs. E. M.

Another boy arrived at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Patzke. nils is the eighth boy to arrive in the home and we believe that the family is eligible recognition from "Teddy" Roose velt. On account of the heavy holi day miil there will be no back stamping of mall at the McHenry as well as all other post offices in the United States be tween Dec. 20 and Jan. 3. There is still a scarcity of houses in the village. Just as soon as a home becomes vacant, there are always from two t> half a dozen applicants for them. A clean, moral show for ladies, gentlemen and children can always be seen at the Central with the "movies" on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. The carpenter work on the W. F. Bassett new home was started last week. Mr. and Mrs. Bassett are very anxious for the completion of the home. Mr. and Mrs. Math Freund moved into their cozy home' on Pearl street last we^k and since then have been entertaining their friends therein. Willie Worts, the 10-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. John A. Worts, was drowned in the pond here at about 3 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon of this week. The drowning took place in what is known as the channel, where, owing to the strong under current, the ice was very thin, less than a half inch in thickness. TAX CHANGES A Wider application at the state Bales tax, made necessary by a recent decision of the State Supreme court, went into effect thAmghout Illinois December 13, 1952, according to Clifford E. Halpin, Director of the state Department of Revenue. Under the changed regulations, sales to persons who are engaged in service occupations and who incidentally transfer the property to others in connection with rendering service will be taxed. For example, sales of any kind of building material to contractors for use in constructing houses or other improvement to real estate will be subject to the tax. Crying bitterly from disappointment, this refugee woman said just before this picture was taken: "There is no 'life' for us refugees, there is only slow, living death." The scene was Uelzen, Germany, Where processing camps for refugees from the east are maintained. Through CROP, American farmers may restore hope and faith In the thousands who are as deeply despairing as this woman.
