Even so, Jiere are a great many homes each month to whom the departing of just one selectee brings a certain emptiness. In spite of the patriotism which is present in all at this time, it is impossible that the lives of many friends and relatives will not be grsatly aflected by the departure of a loved one. Besides our McHenry draftee, thirty-seven other Mchenry count> men will eave Woodstock tomorrow, nday, Feb. 13, with Camp Grant, Rockford, as the induction center. It is hoped that Friday the thirteenth will reverse its customary ominous foreboding and Ming the best of lock to these men who are willingly servng Uncle Sam. Another young man to leave from dralt board one is Donald Eugene Mc- Andrews of Marengo who has many relatives in McHenry.

BOY SCOUTS HOLD COURT OF HONOi^* -'V.: IN LEGION HALL SEEK PROBATION Hearing on petitions to be released on probation in behalf oi Thomas Fromm, 14, and Archie Sanford, 17, both ox Harvard, has been set for j Feb. 14. Both have pieaded guilty to indictments. Fromm is charged with assault with a deadly weapon and assault with intent to commit robbery. Sanford is charged with assault with intent to-commit robbery and assault with intent to murder. Sanford pleaded guilty to the indictment charging assault to commit robbery last week.

S - 12 is National Boy Scout week and throughout the nation tribute is being paid to thit fine organisation. In spite of the added burdens which war inflicts on each individual, time has been taken in each community to commend in some way the work of the Boy Scouts. So it is only fitting and proper that during this week a Coutr of Honor was held, at which many Scouts were presented with spe cial awards. Last Monday evening a large crowd of Legionnaires and 13°? $couts gathered in the Legion h^H for this purpose. The meeting began with the presentation of registration cards by Commander Dreymiller. This was followed by a resume by Mr. Schoenholtz of the work done by the Scouts in the present em«r*ency.
