Adam and William Musgrove were two interesting: and unique characters in the dreamy days of McHenry. As I look back at them, I fail to see- Where they had any- fun.

Because he had hold of his father's hand? Yes--but something more--that contact gave him confidence. Confidence always conquers fear. During the last four years, fear has taken its toll of tragedies, an experience which was not confided alone to the under-privileged cias?. On all of life's levels there was expressed this lack of confidence to ride the storms; a lack of confidence in the inevitable adjustment of the laws of right and wrong. > The cause of fear is lack of confidence which Is due, in many cases, to ignorance. The savage fears the thunder because he does not understand. We tremble at life's uncertainties because we think "ive are not able to cope with them. XVe forget that victories are always won within the imagination of some general before they arewon on battlefields. ' . The men and women who dreamed dreams and had the confidence in themselves to make those dreams tome-true have been the real heroes of history. We are daily reading of the return of confidence throughout our entire country. We rejoice in statements of men,of large and long experience when they declare their confidence in the s p e e d y r e t u r n o f p r o s p e r i t y a n d ' t h a t "in the future we shall have a return of the "good tunes" which existed before the "crashLet us remember that a cathedral Is built in the mind of an architect long before the corner Stone is laid.

QABBY (jERTIE "Don't owe you a damn cent; never owed anybody a damn cent." "Pay for it or go to court.' Settle for half if, you pay now." Not being able to read, they might settle, depending how much "synthetic" whiskey they had drank. Then out the door, raving and c.ursing, the fun was on.1 First, Ad climbed into the buggy which seemed to lean'perilously then Bill got in, righting it, and they were off for Irish Prairie. It cannot be told. It should be heard. "Ten thousand dollars in thfe damn hole. . The damn heH hole. The. hell hole. Com§ on home Bill. Come on home." And so on until out of ear- shot: Part of the foregoing is hearsay. I do not actually know it to be true, but I well recall one time, when I was about twelve years, and in a store where Ad and Bill were. A scene. I discovered a fat roll of bills on the floor, and handea it to a clerk. He said, "Give it to me and watch the fun." Upon discovering their loss, Ad and Bill began yelling, and the, usual exit from town. • » I never knew if the "money was ever returned to the Musgroves. I never heard of it again, but I am confident they never saw it again. What would you have done if you had been that clerk ? Ad and Bill exemplified to my satisfaction, that one does not have t.o be a chin up, high-brow in order to accumulate riches. Years ago, my wife and I visited an acquaintance in the county hospital. While there we were startled by the mean voice of a head nurse. "Clark, what is the matter with you?" The old man, refined looking, settled back on his bed of pain. I turned to my wife and I said, "Do you know why that nurse snarled at that poor creature?" "Why no, I didn't see him do any-, thing," she replied. "It's because he is a pauper, hasn't a dollar," I said. If he was a wealthy man, the nurse would have minced over to him with a--"Is there something I can do for you Mr. Clark, you know we will gladly do everything possible, etc." v Disgusting, isn't it?" A wealthy society woman in Minneapolis once said to me, many years ago , "My boy, if you live to go through a long life, like I have, and have acquired one friend,, who loves you, just because you are you, you will be rich in love.

We coiild get all' the skim and hatter milk we wanted at the cheese factory just for the asking. To the tune of "Home on the Range" and other songs a gang of Scouts ambled with eyes turned west toward Sherman's Hill. And an industrious bunch we were, at that, fox as soon as we "hit" the incline, fires sprang up and tests were passed. I tested someone's swell pancakes. Most of us soon grew tired of what the English call "indulging in food," so a football game commenced and I'm not kidding it was plenty tough. I can still feel minor bruises, but I'll pay that price for a little fun. After some final preparation of putting out fires and getting coats, of course, we went home. Monday saw some fire building (flint and steel method) by Jack Hess. He hit a piece of flint on some steeV^whose friction caused a spark that fell on a piece of cloth. This he blew on and with the aid of baked tinder, he made fire. Pretty good, I'll say. Well, we sang some more of thoso new songs, which certainly are playing havoc with our liking of songs. Who cut the sleeves from father's vest" and "One finger and one thumb," whose motions caused a bit of exercise. Also that one about "1849 and Orry Orry Ay" was quite a comedy. There are so many different kinds of voices and so many of us it's hard to keep in unison, that the noise, shall I say, is actually hil arious, but who cares. We get into groups of a few and sing just as we wish and it surely is fun. You know, we all hold our notes a little longer, than we should, but as I sky, what of it! Remember the - game at DeKalh, November 16, and the requirements you have to fulfiill on all hikes and attend all meetings. Remember to get in a new recruit or a new scout, as it were. The county wide Court of Honor might be here, so I urge you you to make McHenry "A-l" of all the troops in the county. But you know it means all of us should get our tests passed.

They must be arrived at by a study of their resnlta, and from what Is known of temperature effects and of chemical, physical, fluvial and other natural processes Involved. The study of the results of these, and of all the other forces operating In the transformation of parent materials Into t?ue soils, Is usually referred to as the science of "Pedology."

A A P CELEBRATES 76th ANNIVERSARY THIS WEEK "Way back in 1859 one little A & P store was established in New York City. George Huntington Hartford, father of John A. Hartford, began his business through the importation of a quantity of tea which he sold direct to his, customers. Thus the first channel of direct to the consumer merchandising was accomplished. Today, 76 years later, there are almost 15,000 stores which are performing the same function. The only reason thkt these stores increased from'one to 15,000, making. A & P the largest retail organization in the world, is because housewives wanted them. Their daily visits to the A & P stores testify to the sincerity of their desire. v • There are approximately 2000 A & P stores in the Middlewest serving both urban and farm communities. The method of buying direct from producers and what is saved through this direct buying is passed on directly to the customers in lower prices. After all ,the Hartford idea is so simple and natural that it has been readily^ accepted by the consuming public. This week A & P is celebrating the confidence their customers have placed in them by featuring many well known brands of merchandise. The newspapers throughout the country will carry the bulk of the advertising copy that will ' present these values to the people. Seventysix years is a long time to be in business , and the foundation upon which this business has been built is no doubt sound and fundamental to enable them to have such an outstanding record."
