COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS The Farmer's Truck : ^Phe Ford one-ton truck may well be classed as an agricultural necessity, it fits, into and fills so many wants on the farm. It is a reliable bearer of farm burdens, not only doing the work of several horses ^ quicker and better than the horse, and does not "eat its head off" when not working. The aggressive farmer has only to consider the possibilities of the Ford truck and he is ready to buy one, We judge this to be so-fgoafr the way farmers are buying them. STAR GARAGE 'Phone 39 John R.

Mr. and Mrs. Fred W. Fejt*. The only information thus far available regarding the injuries of Robert Martin is to the effect that he received machine gun wounds while in. action. More detailed information is. anxiously awaited by McHenry and Chicago relatives. George Heimer, son of Mrs. Helena Heimer,-who a short time ago underwent a successful operation for appendicitis at the army hospital at Camp Grant, is home on a furlough. George looks none the worse as the result of the operation and apparently is regaining his strength rapidly. Peter Neiss, spn of Mr. and Mrs. John Neiss, is now at Camp de LaRampe, near Brest, France. Peter left McHenry about Mayl of last year and passed the summer in training at Camp Fremont, Calif. In recent letters to his parents here he writes that he doesn't expect to be' home until about the first of May. Private Joseph Meyers, son 'of Mr, and Mrs. Henry Meyers, has received his honorable discharge and is again at his home here. 'He passed igost of his time in service at Fort Sheridan in the capacity of a coast guard. Mrs. Henry Meyers received a telegram last week announcing the safe arrival in the East of her son, Nicholas, who has been over In Fiance* Nick was called to the colors while employed at, Kenosha, Wis., and left with a Wisconsin contingent late last summer. Sergts. Lester Bacon and George Stoffel arrived at their homes here last Wednesday from Camp Custer, Mich., where they received their honorable discharges from service in the U. S. army. The two young men left McHenry to enter the army nearly two years ago and for a long time were stationed at Camp Benjamin Harrison, Ind., from which place they were transferred to Camp Custer, Mich. The boys, during these months in service, have made a record for themselves, of which they have eVery reason to feel proud. PROVIDE Vv KSs;' rK want turnovers, not leftovers. This sign is reported to hang 11? T r?H unlet: A liyn western retailer. Anyway, it's a big UUK'UIOHS message in understandable business language. A retailer's profit depends very largely upon how often he turns his .stock and how r ^..^Uch business he fcan d6 upofl the least amount of capital. Turning stock an extra time in any year is like finding mtiney, because Jt^does not take additional investment to make the extra profit. The money already invested simply works faster and produces accordingly. But, stock can't be turn by luck. Judicious buying, intelligent and forte ful sales methods, and an exact knowledge of the facts concerning the business, made possible by Accurate business records, are all vitally necessary to accomplish the extra -'turnover In the' face of mew business prcfr lems resulting from the war. t >; «> Slow sellers and overbuying^ are the greatest enemies of turnovers. They tie up profits ori, the shelves and offen absorb net gains made by quick moving lines. The answer is to stock quick moving lines in quantities just large enough to take care of the trade, and their to get behind . them with all the sales push possible. Quick. sales at small profits on a minimum investment are the big ideas in war time retailing. What this bank has learned concerning the "better business" prwttftw of the most successful enterprises--methods of proved value for meeting business problems brought on by the war--we are ready and willing to share-with any firm in this community.
