He holds the distinguished service cross, presented to him by King George personally at Buckingham palace. When Fenton departed for England he was directing at M-G-M. He had just finished production 'on "Arouse and Beware," starring Wallace Beery. His wife was playing in a Warner's picture. She could not accompany him, but followed on the next boat. She made arrangements for, relatives to take over the running' and management of their prosperous 40-acre San Fernando valley walnut ranch, which they purchased shortly after their marriage in 1931. On arriving in England she enlisted in the M. T. C., Britain's mechanized transport corps, and drove an ambulance under bomb fire during the Nazi blitz. Good Job Well Done When Fenton was invalided out of the service and ordered home, Ann, her patriotic duty in that phase of Vie war effort ended, * accompanied him as nurse. Producer Lester Cowan was about to film the Broadway stage success "Tomorrow the World," with Fredric March and Betty Field. A story Fenton understood and warmed to. Fenton signed to direct this production. Ann, h^r home In order and her garden growing, signed with Republic and is currently doing a starring role in "Flame of the Barbary Coast." • '• Full Appreciation "It's almost like the war's over, coming back here," they say, "after living in England, and we don't mean this ik any criticism, merely observation. The war is so close in England. For a long time it was right overhead and at your front door. No one knew what would happen next." When Fenton first came to the screen from the legitimate stage, he played the neurotic young soldier who went berserk in "What Price Glory." From this he gravitated into sinister roles through the gangster era, which began with "Public Enemy No. 1," with James Cag- •ey; "The Hatchet Man," with Edward G. Robinson, and similar underworld films. He was* given a part In "The Strange Case of Molly Louvain," opposite Ann Dvorak, whom he'd never met. They fell in love, and in 1931 they were married. • Change of Character He and Ann went to Europe on their honeymoon. There he played romantic roles for a year in Euro-' pean productions in London and Berlin. When Fenton returned from this trip he decided to forsake acting and try directing. Ann meanwhile went back to Warner's and resumed her contract. Fenton retired to the obscurity of a shorts director at M-G-M and after a two-year apprenticeship was given a contract to direct features. "Stronger Than Desire," with Walter Pidgeon, and "The Golden Fleecing," with Lew Ayres, were among the productions he made. * He'll continue directing and Ann will continue acting. "If any of the pictures we make cheer up the troops or provide entertainment for the people actually in the war effort we feel we're doing something." • • • A Promise la to Be Kepi C. B. De Mille's next, which is "Kurales," started 30 years ago. In 1915, Pancho Villa, who loved Mexico, and wanted us to do likewise, tried to get C. B. to tell the story on the screen. He offered to meet C. B. at the border and remain his personal bodyguard, C. B. to name his own salary. "Thanks for the promise of safety," wrote C. B. "Dead I can do you no good; alive I can make you a good piqtur«." But Villa lost out. * (By Mrs. Harry Matthews) • Mr. and Mrs. R. oW.

BOLGER, DRUGS The annual tax levy oretina ice of the City of McHenry. was passed at the regular semi-monthly meeting of the council on Monday night of this week in the amount of 116,- 376. With the exception of an additional levy to offset the payment 01 a $2000.00 fundmg_bond due in December 1945, the levy corresponds with the previous year. Bonds have been paid in the amount of $1000.00 each year; but the payment schedufe calls for the increased amount starting in the year 1945. With a reduction in interest due, 'the new levy actually shows an increase of $&00.00. In the discussion following reports of officers and committees, a re* view of vehicle licenses revealed a few scattered individuals who have failed to comply with the ordinance regulations. These few will be required to purchase licenses and pay penalties where they are found to be in order. All in all' the license situation & found to be very satisfactory. Rev* enue from vehicle licenses has increased in recent years, showing near perfect cooperation on the part of car and truck owners.

Industries The Recent Change in Regulations Governing the \ Distribution and Sale ofrLumber which has been given a considerable amount of publicity, merely Regulates the purpose for which lumber may be used and Does Not "Freeze" lumber as some may imagine. The Armed Fbfces Must Get Lumber First: This is the natural interest and desire of everyone. However, * the War Production Board, realizing the need of niaintaining' facilities on the home froni, has allocated definite quantities of r lumber for civilian use and has established a preference rating ' .. Jystem to provide this lumber. The fanner, for instance, is entitled to purchase lumber (with some restrictions) under a preference rating provided through the War Food Administration. Most industries and certain commercial establishments are provided automatic ratings by WPB. Then, too,, provisions have been made to provide limited amounts of lumber for certain other essential needs. - ' \ This Regulation Applies Only to Lumber. The rules governing other building materials remain unchanged. See Us if You Need Lumber or Other Building Materials. We are familiar with the provisions of this lumber control order fjid have the necessary rating forms and applications »4o assist iron in obtaining a rating if this procedure is necessary.
