Our team has some sise this year. That's a change. Most of the boy* have had some experience* , Tnat helps. --I-- No need of giving you a lineup this early. Some jobs are still open. For instance--one end position seems as .wide open as Joe E. Brown's nuyh. We've looked over all the candidates for that spot and have picked a man. He's in condition, brown as a berry, put on a few pounds' through the summer and seems to know just how the position should be played*. .

They beat us 14 to 8 in the first game. L*at Sunday it took them ten innings to nose us out. We're improving. That was really one of those whooperdo games last Sunday. Action galore. --I-- We look for a raising good crowd at the game next Sunday. W the McHenry diamond. I Johnsburg has a ball team. Make no mistake about that.

LONG SMASH BY KORB SMITH WINS GAMS FOK JOHNSBURG IN TENTH It took ten innings last Sunday to settle the second game of the Johnsburg- McHenry series, Johnsbnrg winning the game to lead 2 to 0 in the series. NorbSmith, Johnsburg second sacker, settled the issue with a hard smash to deep left center, driving in the winning run. Norb circled the bases and was then nearly mobbed by an admiring group of teammates and fans. There has been quite a bit of investigation about that drive. Your writer is following the rule of accepting the home team's score as ofcial, but will explain the situation. The McHenry team reports that the hit cannot be scored as a home run because the batter failed to touch esc ond base. Their report is that they called this failure to the umpire's attention immediately--Bennett touched the base with the ball in his possession-- and the umpire called the batter out. There was only one out at the time so the runner on base scored the run. No question about that. It" is just a question of whether Johnsburg won by a 9 to 7 score or 8 to 7. Norb is satisfied that he drove in the winning run. It was a peach of a drive. Johnsburg scored seven runs in the first three innings, then didn't score again until the tenth. McHenry scored three in the fourth on a long home run by Richard Freund. They scored another in the fifth and three in the seventh to end their run production. For action and interest the game was hard to beat. The two teams will clash again next Sunday on the McHenry diamond. If Johnsburg wins, the series will be all over. If McHenry wins the battle will continue. Next Sunday's game should be the best of the series. McHenry A. Anderson, 8% . J. Wiser, sa ....... P. Louis, c B. Rudin. rf ...... Larkin, if ... R.

Another session of Scouting began Monday night, September 11, when the first troop meeting of the school year was held. * Meat of the beys who made up last winter's record-breaking troop were baek and several new Seouts were present. We were glad to see Mr. Schoenholtz back at the head of the troop. He has been in Colorado all summer, while Howard Ensign has been very ably conducting the Scouting affairs in his absence. The meeting came to order with the repeating of the Scout law. It was announced that a Board of Review will be held next Monday night bi conjunction with the regular meeting. Our chances of winning back the advancement banner are very bright. Practically every Scout has promised that he will meet the requirements for a number of Merit Badges, or to advance in rank. The Belvidere troop finally wrested the banner from us during the summer months. A number of songs were enjoyed everyone singing with the usual enthusiasm. Two games, "Question Baseball" and "Steal the Bacon" were played. The Scoutmaster's benediction was given to end the meeting. The Scout of McHenry wish to take this opportunity to welcome Scout Martin Baum of Highland Park to oar troop.

HARD TO CATCH By John Harvey Furbay, Pm.D THIEVES AND ROBBERS ARE NOT THE MHE THING Although the two terms "thief" and "robber" are used rather interchangeably by most people, the truth is that they are not the same thing at al^ A thief is one who takes the property of ^another without the use of force or violence; while a robber is one who uses force. A burglar is one who breaks into another's building or abode to •teal. (Public Ud|er-1mtl Service.)

BARTON SOME years ago I found myself writtogirery often about the liver ancrgwl bladder. I felt that as the liver was really the king of the organs (from the standpoint of work and of health), I could not write too often about it. I decided to write about the liver about four to six times a year, % As mentioned before, the healthy liver keeps us free from many symptoms that would make lite miserable because it filters poisons from the blood, stimulates bowel action, thus getting rid of wastes, stores up sugar for future needs, puts rich, fat foods into condition to be digested and helps to build the blood. Naturally when the liver itself or its adjoining gall bladder containing concen- Dr. Barton trated bile is disturbed the entire body feels the effect; the skin may be jaundiced, stomach upset by gas pressure, the head aches, the bowel is constipated, the nervous system becomes dull or depressed. So much can an upset liver and gall bladder upset appetite, digestion and bowel movement that phyaicians agree that most disorders of appetite, stomach arid intestine are not caused by any condition in the mouth, stomach or intestine but by these disorders of the liver and gall bladder. I Animal Bile Used. ^f As these disorders interfere with the manufacture of bile, many physicians are using preparations of bile obtained from animals in the treatment of disorders of the stomach and intestines. Dr. J. M. Winfield, Detroit, in the Michigan State Medical Society Journal, records his use of dried bile (obtained by drying pig pile in high vacuum) in 27 cases in which there appeared to be no loss of bile in the patients (by drainage) but in which there were symptoms which might have been due to a lack in quantity or quality of bile in the intestine during digestion. The chief symptom for which the dried bile was given was loss of appetite. When the feeding of the bile proved helpful the increase in appetite was evident usually within a few hours. Also the other symptoms usually present--belching, gas distension (fullness) and constipation-- were corrected in the majority of cases. It should be remembered, however, that bile pills or capsules need only be taken by these unable to exercise. ' _ v • • Allergic Persons Inherit Tendency* A few years ago a physician doing special work in allergy--sensitiveness to certain substances--used about 23 different substances in making the skin tests. Among these substances were rfegweed, goldenrod, horse hair, cats' fur, eggs and whole wheat. • Today-he uses over 400 different substances and it is likely that in the days to come there will be many more found that cause hay fever, asthma, head oolds, eczema, hives, stomach and intestinal upsets and other symptoms. This sensitiveness (allergy) to various substances runs in families just as do tuberculosis, rheumatism and other ailments. It is now believed that almost two of every three sensitive or allergic individuals have inherited this "tendency" --not the ailment itself. Thus the grandparent may have asthma, the parent hay fever, and the grandchild eczema. There is thus said to be a "hay fever, asthma, eczema complex*' in some families. Cause Can Usually Be Fennd. The point to remember is, of course, that these sensitive individuals, although they have the "tendency," will not suffer with any of these ailments--stomach upsets, asthma and others--unless they eat these foods or breathe in these substances. Many drugs, soaps and face powders are responsible for symptoms. There is always some definite substance causing the symptoms, and this substance or substances can usually be found if searched for long enough. This may mean, as mentioned above, a great many 6kin tests or other tests before the offending substances are found. The tests are made by making tiny scratches on the skin--usually the forearm or thigh--and the substance in the form of a powder or paste is applied to the scratch. By avoiding the foods or other substances causing the symptoms the individual would likewise avoid these symptoms. However,, as many of these substances must be eaten to sustain life or cannot be avoided because they are in the air and are breathed into the lungs, treatment is given by injecting these offending substances under the skin. >v;:iiirrt*bt.--'WKU 8*r?lcc. v IHTERESTme NEARBY HEWS TAKER FROM OOLUMH8 OF OVR EXCBATOH Mrs. Ella L. Burr, 98, affectionately known as "Crystal Lake's oldest be/by" died last Monday at the Woodstock hospital where she had been a patient since June 20 with a broken hip suffered in a fall at her home. The eastern sky was brilliantly illuminated last Tuesday night when flames raged through the cattle bfrn on the farm occupied by Ward Flock. Routes 22 and 14 just beyond Fox River Grove were crowded with cars, spectators viewing the terrific biases which destroyed the building, a hog, hay, grain, and farm equipment, for a loss estimated at several thousand dollars. & Four grass fires in a span of four days cost the village of Barrington and the rural fire department together an approximate amount of $72, said Fire Chief Victor Rieke, who [last Wednesday afternoon made his annual appeal to residents of the community to guard against carelessness in starting brush fires. Edward Pettis, 12-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. E. V. Pettis, who moved last weekend from Western Springs to 1104 Arlington avenue in LaGrange is confined at the isolation ward :jf| the Cook county hospital with a case' of infantile paralysis. Edward was taken ill Saturday, August 26, and last Wednesday when his ailment was diagnosed as infantile paralysis, he was rushed to the hospital. Hunters in the vicinity of Huntley are looking forward to a very fine pheasant shooting season this year. The ring necks are reported to be more plentiful than any of the past few seasons and with the four day longer season hunters should have some great sport in November. It was John Wilson's turn a week ago Friday to go around saying, "I told you so!" to skeptical friends who had heard or read his prediction that war would start on Friday, September 1. These same friends are equally hopeful that the rest of his prediction which appeared in The LaGrange Citizen two weeks ago to the effect that "there isn't any chance of our being involved" will also hold true. No arrests. No accidents. No injuries'. No fires. That was the record of Marengo for the Labor Day holiday, according to Police Chief Fred Nelson, who reported last Tuesday tliat everything was "peaceful over the holiday here except the radio broadcasts received from Europe." Libertyville's only public swimming beach on the east shore of Liberty lake closed ojlficially for the summer after Labor Day without a single drowning. The services of Lifeguard Allen Hudson were discontinued and anyone swimming there from now on will do so at his own risk. Only one serious accident was reported in the Harvard area over the Labor Day weekend, although the traffic was the heaviest it has been in many weeks. A pedestrian, Cecil Wilkinson, 67, :W^Chuuuig figured in the one case. Mr. WjWinaon, in the Harvard CommvottMbmtal with internal injuries of a.Mrtaqs nature, was struck by an aato 'dmeti by R. A. Larson of Poplar Grove at 7:15 a week ago Monday night when he walked across highway 178 neaf his home at Chemung. Workmen on the new road south of Lacon found the skull and horns of an antelope and being unable to identify the species, it was taken to R. M.

Miss Macaitis was treated at the Jane Dowst Emergency hospital by Dr. R. H. Rbbbins. A gash over her left eye- necessitated twelve stitches. In addition, her left leg suffered abrasions. Epiphytit Epiphytes are plants which grow upon the surface of other plants for mechanical support* but which do not obtain nutriment from their sap or growing tissues as do parasitic plants. They are most abundant in warm, moist regions. Various mosses and lichens are epiphytic, as are an immense number of tropical orchids.
