This show is brought here to raise money for the Kiwanis Underprivileged Children's Fund. Contrary to the belief of some, the Kiwanis club wants to make dear that the show is not for the . . . .. _ benefit of grandmothers or any 12. member of the Kiwanis club. The McHenry Township Kiwanis club last year spent over $700 out of their Underprivileged Children fund to take care of many urgent cases. In spite of opinions to the contrary, there is need in this community of carrtig for needs of children whose parents are unable to do so or who neglect them. The Kiwanis need more funds for this important work and decided to bring to McHenry, at considerable expense, this wonderful show of the Grandmothers' club called the "Gay 90's Revue", to help raise money for their project. The Kiwanis members are urged to report on their sales of tickets to Joseph X. Waynne or Tom Cashen and to devote the* next few days to sale of additional tickets to insure a full house. The publiq is requested to co-operate by buying their tickets in advance of Saturday night.

Parking meters jUve sotted the problem in other 'owiag cities of like size whv re ooMMnted with the pro- •f tcaftic regulation and revenue. "The "city f&thers" believe that McHenry too, can, solve its problems in a similar manner. Primary purpose of the meters, of course; is for traffic regulation. The 19S0 census revealed that this community has grown more than any other in McHenry county in the last .ten years. Prosperity haa meant more cars on the road. Th® oombination has resulted in a neta for more strict regulation of traffic on our city streets. Crystal Lake Meters * Crystal Lake's recently installed meters went into operation last week. About 325 meters were put In, with hours from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. week days except Friday when the time is extended to 9 p.m. because of stores being open that evening.

The w&nen of the auxiliary feel that the public should make their best effort to buy and put to use the items that the men make under the rehabilitation program. They owe it to them not only because they are disabled through no fault of their own but because they are so grateful to eaph and every one for Whatever Is done to make their 11m more normal. The items in the exhibits show outstanding skills In handling of materials and 6ra*t!on of design. Quality Is high though prices are low. Every item is designed for beauty, with utility in view.

It was a daguerrotype likeness of a little girl of 8 years, enclosed iif a wooden box frame. It was perfectly preserved although almost a century ago it laid for many hours on the body of her brother, Thomas Potter of Volo, a soldier killed in one of the earliest musketry exchanges of the battle. The daguerrotype was taken from the body and brought back at the close of the war by Levi Waite, a neighbor of the Potters. A curious family tradition which existed artlong many in those early days revealed the belief of the Potters that they were In occult communication with their absent soldier boy. When she was grown, the little girl of the relic remembered re-telling the story of how she sfrt one day with her mother in the farm house which still stand* near Volo. when they were startled by three sharp raps under the dinner table. When the child inquired concerning it the mother evaded her questions. Weeks later, however, when news came officially of Thomas Potter's death, she asked if the little girl remembered the three raps, adding that she knew at the time It was the day their son and brother was killed. Mutfh more of the family history was brought to light also last week, a history interesting not only to members but to old timers of the Volo community and to MPV recent friends of the family. Otto Mueller, who resides In the Country Club subdivision, suffered painful burns as the result of an unusual accident last Monday morning. Mr. Mueller, an employee of the Schroeder Iron Works south of the city, was working in a home near Griswold Lake when the pressure gauge on an oxygen tank which he was using In his work exploded and caused a fire.

Seek He-Hearing On Court Ruling Plans are said to be under way by the state revenue department to ask the Illinois supreme court for a re-hearing on its decision of last week making the post of county assessment supervisor Invalid. It was a 1949 act which created the office and gave the new officials extensive powers in making tax assessments. They have been working at their jobs since last spring In the 100 counties affected by the law (all except Cook and St. Clair). la the event of a re-hearinf , the court's order oonceralng its ruling would be held up until the motion is acted upon at the November term. The department director, Ernest C. Mahron, has announced that the attorney general's office is studying the effect of the decision on the legality of assessments already made by the supervisors. In some counties these supervisors have already turned in personal property assessments. Under the act of 1949, the supervisor in each county was given the authority formerly held only by boards of review to revise individual assessments. The salaries of the new supervsors, ranging from $2,000 to $6,000 have been paid from a $632,625 appropriation, which was also held Invalid by the court last week. The act was dec^red Invalid because it gave the slate revenue department unconstitutional powers over selection of the assessment supervisors. Raymond T, Dusenberry of Marengo, McHenry county assessment supervisor, has just completed his list of real estate and person property assessment, ctumgec COUNTY GOAL OF 3,000 BUSHELS FARM GOODS SET BY CROP A county meeting of CR(3P (Christian Rural Overseas Program) was held in the courthouse last week, with A.
