There's a red-snooted man, with pipe in mouth, in Pedersen's 6 and 10 store window that has people stopping to look. (And we don't mean Pete himself). "Muggs" Wattles dragged «* .. a lot of those pre-war articles and put 'em in view this week. Sure sign of Christmas! The discharged sergeant walked into the barber shop, draped himself into the barber chair and without a second glance said to the barber: "Shave and a haircut." The barber picked up the brush and started to lather the face. He stopped in the middle of the op- ' eration, a smile of enormous proportions spreading over his face M he reached for the razor: "Well," he said heartily, "If it isn't my old sergeant!" ; The 3-ygar-old and his father were 1 toward the rear of a elevator. A kindly woman turned to the dad and said, "Aren't you afraid your, little boy will be squashed?" "Not a chance, lady," aas'd the father. "He bites!"

Paul Yanda and his Pep Band were right dfl their toes last Friday night at the basketball game. .When Crystal Lake "followers started # their school song, the band was quick to pidi it up and give them a boost. Nice spirit! An irate old gentleman strode into the railroad station jand, without preamble, proceeded to_ tell off the ticket agent, including in his denunciation everybody from the president down. He ended by lambasting the trains for their failure to run on time. The agent finally cut in with: "Do you do much traveling on this road?" "Don't 40 any," replied the Want A Gift ,j We ndmii that it's a bit early to be looking for the footprints of Donner and Blituffl on the roofs of McHenry houses, but these frosty mornings and the old fffiawiisr itself remind ns that Christinas isn't far off. With the flu and bad colds moving the rounds of our fair city some have found that there are only fourteen more shopping days and nary t gift have they purchased. To yen tele shoppers (by choice or necessity) we offer the following suggestion. With the was so recently won and reconversion taking place rather slowly, our supply of gifts in almost all lines is not as complete as we would hope for. .However, we think McHenry stores have stock favorable to that la other nearby cities. By the way, did you ever think of a hardware store as a pretty handy place to select a Christmas' gift that's different? We have quite a variety of useful and attractive articles to please the discriminating tastes of McHenry men and women. Come in and visit our store during the next week. We think you will be glad you did! E. H. Nickels Hardware PHONE S WEST M*HEN$r MCH8 took * trlnuning at L*k« Geneva, Itaeoday night, .» to #. Ckwas that's enough said about that one.
