It was one of Mr. Jnrten't chief aaarces of enjoyment to kit in front of Ike furniture stare and visit with his 'various acquaintances. Many a person. both old and young, will miss his kindly philosophy and the reminiscent tales <>f earlier days which the old gentleman t*»d to those who chanced ta pass his place of business. The deceased was born on April 15, 1860, the son of Nicholas and Mary Jnsten, on the old homestead about a safle and half north of town.

Harold Lyle, Barringon township farmer, carried off first honors in the annual Cook county corn-husking contest, held Monday, Oct. 27, on the Walter Senne farm near Palatine. The contest had been postponed twice because of unfavorable weather, and muddy grounds handicapped huskers when they finally did swing into action. Lyle had a net harvest of S7.1 bushels of DeKalb hybrid corn. Residents of Crystal Lake were interested last Sunday in hearine on an Aurora radio station Arthur Njaa and a group of five Senior students of the Crystal Lake Community High school who participated in a, broadcast on the subject, "'What Is the American Way?" This was one of a series that different high schools are putting on for tile National Youth Forum. Mr. Njaa is chairman of the groun. the students being: Kenneth Kohler, county state's attorney's office, started in the circuit court in Woodstock Monday morning. The suit has been pending for more than a year. It was filed in MeHenry county because one of the defendants lived in Crystal Lake. C. Russell Allen, Cary attorney, represents the plaintiff. The plaintiff charges in the complaint that the policemen Illegally removed furs and jewelry after forcing their way into his Chicago apartment without a search warrant on January 28. 1988. It i« claimed that the furirier later was convicted on a charge of receiving stolen property, but the Illinois supreme court reversed the conviction. In an answer on file in the case the defendants claim the raid on Dalpe's apartment resulted in the recovery of certifa stolen articles. According to the attwar it la stated that on Jan. 14, IMS, a robbery was committed at 6,000 MILE TRIP ENDS TUESDAY AS TOURISTS RETURN A six thousand mile trip was completed this week as Mr. and Mrs. Frank Blake and Mr. and Mrs. Math Blake returned to their respective hom®3 on Tuesday evening. Leaving MeHenry ©a Oct. 19, the two couples arrived in St. Louis the first night where they stayed with Nick Freund, a great toncle of Xh. Math Blake. Th« following day fofend them in Missouri where they viewed th* beautiful Ozark ntountams, and by nightfall. the coupler readied Oklahoma, Where they saw the Wffl Rogers memorial. In Munday, Texas, a few days later, the MeHenry folks stayed for a day With Joe Blake, who is known to many in this vicinity. After viewing the many romantic spots in both New Mexico and Old Mexico, they arrived in Los Angeles. From there the Blakes took a boat trip to Catalina Island and from the island took a glass-bottom boat to view the tropical gardens and the ocean. Yosemite National park was the next point of interest on their itinerary. Here they encountered snow four and one-half feet deep on some of the roads, necessitating their making a detour of one hundred and fifty miles. The return trip brought within sight such scenic spots as Boulder Dam, the Grand Canyon and the Painted Desert. In both Texahoma, Okla , and Cunningham, Kan., the couples stopped to visit cousins of Mrs. Math Blake. In Missouri and Oklahoma flood waters were beginning to recede, but the local folks encountered many bride-s which had been washed out, making a few short detours necessary. Arriving home Tuesday from a trip which they termed wohderful, the Blakes have memories which will not soon be forgotten. However, to those of us who have not been fortaaate enough to view the beauty of the Southwest, they offer at least one consolation. These recent travelers, as well as many others who have enjoyed extensive trips, returned with the feeling that the gentleman who said there was no place like home was not so badly mistaken--especially if that hoo»g. is in Illinois. •-fy-TT;f SEVEN ESTATES ARE FILED IN PROBATE COURT TOTAS.

That may be news ta many telephone users but it is the truth. Aad here is how it happens. Because it would be impractical to have every Chicago telephone exchange connected directly to every other suburban exchange, these exchanges pass their calls through whfi is known as the Tandeni Office at 311 West Washington street, Chicago; Thus Tandem Office acts as a clearing house for such calls.

Ben operator for Elmhurst 9981. Her local operator, say in the Pullman office, passes the call to the tandem operator in Chicago. The tandem operator depresses the proper keys on a board in front of her that looks iike an adding machine, and here is where the movie film comes into the picture, to coin a- phrase. Upon revolving drums in the tandem office are a sufficient number ef talking films, containing the Elmhurst and other office codes, the numbers zero to nine and the party line letters, M, J, W, and R, to pass suburban calls. Each drum keeps repeating over and over, the single letter or numeral which has been recorded upon it by an operator versed in cancel spssch. The keys deprssaed by the tandem operator bring the correct fllma into operation, aad the keys art immediately released, ready to paas Wood of Long Island. N. Y., is left $26,000. Robert D. Frey of Marengo is left $25,000. and Alberta Heath of Minneapolis :sl left $2,500. Hie Continental Illinois National Bank and Trust copmnay of Chicago is named executor.

All the rest and residue is left to the son, Robert T. Frey. The will is dated May 19 1932. .. Hence., the Elmhurst operator who receives the call, hears it directly from the motion pictuer film which ia scanned by a beam of light and amplified to the proper level. The use of this robot has made it possible to pass a call of this kind in two seconds, whereas it would take much longer if the tandem operator had to plug f* and call the suburban operator aad paas the call orally.
