T INTERESTING NEARBY NEWS The first of a series of radio broadcasts depicting life in earlyday Illinois, recently inaugurated by a Chicago station, concerned a Lake county "country doctor." The hero of the story was Dr. John Kennicott. Dr. Kennicott came to what is now Lake county over the Des Plaines Valley trail in 1887, and for many years he ministered to the county's pioneers. More than one native resident of this section will remember him. Wm.

' - This was promised by Livingston Otfcorne -4 of - Highland Park, director of the state department of fish and game conservation, at a banquet staged in his honor by Fox Lake village officials and business men last week. Five Acres Reqaired The proposed building, which will be located on a site of five acres, will cost approximately $80,000. Aside from its administrative and training school purposes, it will house a museum of fish and game common to this section of the nation. The site of the building will be designated aa a state park. In outlinitig^ the policies of his department he declared that it is his plan to take the appointment of fish and game wardens and other employes out of politics. Only men of 45 years of age or younger who are capable of mental and physical strain and who oossess a sincere desire to give the utmost in service will be apnointed to undergo a period of training for these positions. A rigid form of civil service examinations is to be adopted he said. Township, county officials and sportsmen in Lake county were praiaed by the speaker for their co-operation with the state department in the observance and enforcement of game and fish protective laws. The McHenry County Sportsmen's club sent the largest delegation to of its members, headed by Ben Marshall of Harvard, vice president of ths county organisation, occupied a large table which had been set aside for them. Location Undecided While the proposed conservation department building will be located in -or near Fox Lake, the site of the structure has not yet been determined. A half doaen possible locations have been inspected by representatives of the department and discarded. Mayor Amundsen of Fox Lake has been working quietly with the department for more than two months in the inspection and review of areas regarded as suitable sites. Village officials have been assured that the institution will be erected as soon as a suitable site is obtained "WSQDIHOSFttXS" TO BE PRK8BOTD rWDAY Evsmao, HrtfXMBEE 14 The Juniors in the McHenry Community High school have a now comedy of memory lapssa and mixups for tomorrow evening. "Wadding Spells'* has to do with the lliauli 1 of Steve Arlem (Martin Basnn) to find his lost bride in the wilds of New York society. His goad friend, Charlie Cooney (Charles Adams), and his faithful butler, Reeves (Robert Wiedeman) do their bast to help the befuddled bridegroom who prefers the quiet of the jangles to the anxiety of city life. Although Steve realises that one of four attractive girls may be his wife, he is stunned when a fifth appears. The setting, the apartment of an independently .waalthy giqbe t?otte*, lacks the dusty realinn of the hotel lobby in "Danger in the Desert," has a bachelor look, holds no clues for finding the missing bride. The characters include four charming society girls, a widow,, and a mysterious stranger who doesnt kelp Steve solve his problem XIUS SHOPPING HINTS GIVEN TO VHENRYBUYERS RESIDENTS UR&ED fO SHOP Only forty-one days until Chfcstmas.

Although forty-one days may seem in the distant future, the time seems to slip upon us with lightning speed each year and in soite of good intentions Christmas Eve never fails to find the stores cro«wded with last minute shopoers.

McHenry county farmers who volunteer their help in producing the incresaed quantities of hogs, eggs, evaporated milk, dry skim milk, cheese and chickens sought in the 1942 Farm Program will have the protection of new Federal Farm legislation against price collapses for these particular commodities, Bert Bridges, chairman of the County Agricultural Defense Board pointed out last week. The new act of Congress, known as the Steagall amendment, requires that, whenever in the present emergency tha Secretary of ' Agriculture finds it necessary to encourage the expansion of the production of any nonbasic agricultural commodity, he must issue a public notice calling for the expansion. The same law also directs him to use funds available to him for the disposal of agricultural commodities so as to support the farm price of the commodity of not less than 85 por cent of parity.

By shooning at home you are making the holiday season in the communitv a more prosperous one as well as saving time and money for yourself. In spite of any arguments to the contrary even the thought of being pushed around m crowds is sn unpleasant dream--*he realisation is a ^ightmare. In addition to this, take into account the f»xtra time and money necessary to travel twentv-five or W*v miles to shop and we think you will readily see that the bright lights and tinsel Milch make large city store® so slluring are only an outward attraction. Gift Hxchanging Problesp - *-The matter of exchanging gifts should not be forgotten either; AnM*. who survive ths pre season city shoppinr rush may not be so lucky when causrht among the crowds who frequent the stores following the holidays. Even those who are so filled with the Christmas spirit as to be cheerfully pushed hither and yon beforehand, will hardly regard the same treatment so calmly when the holiday spirit has faded and the one desire of everyone is for rest and quiet. The exchange of an article is not a pleasant task at any time or place but there is no comparison in the aase with which it may be don* ia town and away from home. As was mentioned a few weeks ago. the parking problem in the business section, which is difficult now. will become even more serious with the coming holidays. It is hoped that the townspeople will eo-operate by occupying this parking section only for shopping purposes. We again suggest the Legion parking lot for those who intend to leave their can for several hours at a time. Bv suggesting these many aids to Christmas shopping in advance it is hoped that many may profit by them. If the holidays arrive this year and vour shopping is not completed or you find yourself lost in the city crowds, remember--we told you aa.
