CONTINUE COURT STUDY After several weeks of suspense for the many persons who were extremely interested in the outcome of the problem of whether or not the county court house would be rebuilt, the board of supervisors settled the matter, at a recent meeting, at least for the present. There will be no more rebuilding in any manner this year, and not before next spring at least. The board voted to delay "Only 11,000 veterans exhausted their rights to readjustment allowance during the period,, under review," Gordon pointed out. "Many of these had only liipited rights, as maximum periods for which veterans may claim readjustment allowance vary from eight weeks to fifty-two •weeks, depending on the length of the veteran's war-time service.

Creating a great deal of favorable interest recently has been House Bill 682, enacted into law by the last session of. the Illinois general assembly, creating a commission to study and formulate a road and ridge program lor the state. The bill provides foi seventeen members of the house appointed by the speaker; five members from the senate selected by the president thereof; five citizens appointed by the governor, with the speaker of the house and president of the senate as ex-officio members. Among the senators named to serve mi the commission is the able and experienced senator from the eighth senatorial district, Wauconda's Bay Paddock. The commission is faced with a great task in making its investigation and subsequent report on the matter. County residents are, of course, hoping that Senator Paddock may aid in influencing the commission in regard to obtaining further state help with local roads. Residents will no doubt be watching. with interest further developments in this matter. MORS HOSPITAL BHDS TOR VSTKBANB URCHED BY AMERICAN LEGION Charring that thousands of veterans badly in need of medical aid are being turned away from Veterans Administration hospitals every day Because of the lack of hods to care for them. Department Commander Doughps 0.

She lived her entire lifetime in this vicinity, where her friends were legion. Sijcty years ago, on Jan. 25,4888, Katharine Klapperich and her brother Henry, were married to Stephen H. IPreund and Mary Freund, respectively, also brother and sister, in a ddi)Ne nuptial service. Together the two couples celebrated their golden wedding anniversary, their afty-fifth anniversary and were still ^gether last January on the occasion of their fifty-ninth year as lifelong partners. However, the death of Mr. Klapperich last June separated one of the couples, and cut short tlans for the observance of the emorable sixtieth anniversary next year. As the wife of McHenry's reprei sentative on the board of supervi- ' son for over thirty years, Mrs. Freund gained the acquamtanoe of a great many people, her pleasant manner winning for her many friends. She remained extremely active even though past her eightieth birthday, spending her leisure hours with ono of her favorite hobbies, raising flowers. It was not unusual, either, on a summer day to see Mrs. Freund on the banks of the Fox river, patiently waiting like all veteran fishermen, for a tug on the line. Only ill health during this past fall season caused her to abandon this favorite pastime. The deceased was a faithful member of the Christian Mothers and Altar society and of St. Mary's church. Survivors include the husband, Stephtn H. Freund; seven children, Mrs. Mary Buch, Anton P., Mrs. Cecelia Blake, Carl J-, Herbert H., Mrs. Helen Smith and Bertilla Freund, all of McHenry; fifteen grandchildren and twenty-nine grjmt grandchildren. She had no living brothers or sisters, being the last of the Klapperich family. The body will rest at the Freund home until 10 o'clock on Thaaksgiving Day, when last rites will "be conducted from St. Mary's church. Burial will be in the chureh cemetery. Her grandsons will act as pallbearers. Edward Thempooa McHenry reeidents wen saddened by word of the sudden death on Saturday, Nov. 22, 1M7, of Edward Thompson. He passed away in North Chicago following a Mart attest; suffered during the afternoon. The deceased was born sixty-throe years ago, on Jan. 30. 1884, in Pomeroy, Ohio. Forty-three years ago he came to this community, where he had since made his hoaae. For many years ho fanned in this . locality and later was employed in a foundry in North Chicago for six At this point Smiley turned and ran into the field. The search for the Wisconsin youth had been underway about an hour at this point and officers were fast closing in on him. Realizing that capture was near and that he undoubtedly would be shot if he showed resistance, he suddenly walked out from a clump of bushes, his hands raised over his head and shouted, "Don't shoot, Fll surrender." Making the capture were Woodstock Chief of Police Emery Hansman, Sheriff Fred Bau and Deputies Lyle Hutchinson and Clyde C. Miner, Sgt. Don (Barnes and Patrolmen Everitt Anderson and George F. Jedlicka of the state police. AMONG THE SICK Irwin Neil underwent surgery at the Woodstock hospital last week. Srwin HOI underwent surgery at the Woodstock hospital last week.
