35-Pound Fish The above picture Shows Stanley Jtulison and his granddaughter, Mary Evelyn Price, with Mr. Rolison holding a 35-pound fish, which he caught last Sunday off the pier in front of the summer hone of Mr. and Mrs. Duane W. Pricej on the east shore of PJstakee Bay. » Mr. Rulison was fishing for blue * gills and using a No. 4 hook. He was surprised when this large carp took the bait and had small hopes of landing the whopper with such small tackle. However, after tiring out the 28-incher, he was successful in landing him wi^h a net. Mr. and Mrs. Price have taken the Mrs. Chas. Aronson home on the Bay for the next two seasons.

SCARCITY OP HOGS : fRINGS FfelCSS UP The consumers resistance to high pork prices resulted in a slow trade for hogs at the stockyards last week and brought prices downta shade. Beef, however, benefitted by the boycott of high priced pork and the housewife now finds prices of both beef and pork climbing almost beyond reach. Experts say that the pork shortage will continue until next winter as a result of the scarcity of corn. Farmers have been selling corn and cutting down theii* breeding herds and it will be necessary to grow another crop of corn before breeding herds can be rebuilt. It has been possible for many months to get more by selling corn on the market than by feeding it to hogs. Most hog raisers figure that it takes from ten to twelve bushels of com to produce 100 pounds of pork.

Whiting Deering Thurlwell ; Kreutzer ......... C. Anderson ... Gracy Freund . McHenry county has 490 people who are recipients of old age assistance, according to a statement by Superm-p^dee tendent James H. Andrews. The amount of payments for this county totalled $8,163, or an average of $16.65 per recipient. Seven downstate counties exceeded the state average of $16.46 per recipient. Cook county's average was $20.90, necessitated by the higher cost of living in the metropolitan area, Andrews said. This amount was almost $3 higher than the mean payment of $17.99 for Rock Island county, the highest downstate. Other downstate counties exceeding the state average were, Cass, Champaign, Henry, Kane, Macon and McHenry. Only one county's average was less than $10. In Washington county, the average payment to 822 benefiearies last month was $9.96. Putnam county had the smallest number of benefiearies given aid in May with 124 approved applicants. St. Clair, most heavily populated downstate county, had the largest number downstate with 2,905. Totals 1- 0 r 0 0 yf 0 1 H 0 2 I 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 3J . "Gabby" is still the old personality kid.

We had planned tp make a correction this Week about Harrison being so well fitted to head our new Liars Club, but along comes an unsigned letter expressing surprise that we are so verdant in not knowing more of the boy's talent in the way of prevaricating. The letter says there is no one living in this great country who is even worthy of blackening his shoes. "They claim that people listen to him and then buy sodas to keep their strength.
