The Bajrrymores were very prominent. Harold also found some hoop skirts. If that was all the space women used to all6w for their internal processes at the waist line, no wonder they were considered the weaker sex. It just doesn't make good sense -- Lee sBaker, Greenwood flying farmer, took off for Art Miller's near Union one afternoon last week. He Sicked up Art and they called on ;ay Nevel near Garden Prairie for a cup of coffee. I'M bet Jersey cows, were mentioned. A new family of 4-H boosters just moved here from Cook county, "to the farm recently sold toy Harold Birk to Marvin Lagerhausfin. The Lagerhausens have three boys in club work and live on Route 47, north of Woodstock., Recent additions to our roll of new 4-H leaders for 1948 are Walter Dunker of Marengo and Rudy Choun, who are going to lead the Rush Creek Club, northwest of Marengo. The organization m'eeting date is set for Friday night, April 16, at the Ray Deneen home. Dale Past.le- Waite, who moved to Cary, left the *club for two years. Other new leaders are Harold Turner and Georgt1 Cowan, who will lead the Queen Anne Mixers near Greenwood. They replace George Rasmussen who moved to Marengo. Dick Beers will replace his dad as co-leader with Gordon Jones in the leadership of the Harvard Hustlers. J Dick has taken over the farm work ; arid Fred now has taken up \vorlc with Walter Burton in the Farm j Supply store at Harvard. Other new leaders this year are, Eugene Mehl, with A. B. McConnell,1 Better Goals Club; Elmer Ackman i and William Schwall, Crystal Lake Workers Club; William Fyfe with Dean Ramblers; Kenneth Gurke and Walter Thompson, Two Harmonies; and James Watson and Robert Seigel of the Cloverleaf Boosters.
