Margaret McCarthy, a x j4cHer<ry resident for all of her eighty-lour years, died late Monday afternoon, April 6, 1942, following an illness? of several weeks. A food neighbor and kind friend the deceased spread cheer wherever she went and more than once light- . ened the spirits of others by her own cheerfulness and wit. Bom on a farm near McHenry, she spent her childhood there, moving to town in 1897.

The survey was conducted in ©flier to determine the actual number of known men now serving in any branch of the service and declared to be in active duty Dec. 6 of last year. It is believed that this figure is short of the actual number in service as only 134 enlistments are granted to the two county selective service boards. Enlistments are listed as between two and three hundred unofficially. Figures were obtained from the selective service boards and only include those now in active service. These records do not officially name the volunteers in the army, navy or marines nor do they irclude those in service before Oct. 16, 1940, the date of the first national draft registration, one of which is yet to be held. I Compiled figures show in Draft Board No. 1 (this board includes McHenry): 261 accepted by draft call in sixteen county quotas, while thirtyfour men were rejected in final army physical examinations from 223 selectees called. Sixty-three men have During national 4-H mobilization week,^April 5- 11, McHenry county is endeavoring to doubly its present enrollment, .according to Farm Adviser John HT Brock and Home Adviser Clara H.
