WRESIUN6 IS POPULAR SPORT LOCAL HIGH X Regular Schedule Is Arranged With Various Schools Most people have become famil- ||f lar with the type of professional W' wrestling that appears on tele- £ Vision. High school and profession- " al wrestling &re entirely different. The purpose of high school, wrestl- ,'ltig is to furnish the boys with a type of athletic contest 'which re- » j. quires both skili and judgment as Well as strength and courage. This is the first year we have had a wrestling team at 'McHenry^ High School and in a very short jffe-/ Jjtme it has become very popular With the boys. There are twentv- '"5'-.. hovs on the squad which makes the competition very keen. . • We have a regular schedule ar- . ranged with ..other schools and • I*°Pc to have a large liumber of ^ fans present to encourage' Mc- Henry's wrestlers. • Following is a brief explanation 'jz • of high school wrestling rules: C (1) There are ten weight classes i;, ranging from 103 lbs. and under to heavy-weight (over 16.1 lb«,). (2) A niatch ciinsists of three two minute rounds. ... (31 All punishi ig holds are illegal, that is holds which ^re» used lor punishment alone. (4) The objective;, is to .pin your opponent. A pin lakes place whenhas control of .bis opponent in a pinning coinbihation'aud a fall is imminent. (f) One point for cach full minute of accumulated net time-advantage behind. Two points is the most that can be so awarded in the three periods of the match. In dual meets the team with 'lie highest number of points is tlie winner. Team points are awarded as follows: Falls:--when one of the two contestants in any match secures a fall, five points shall be awarded to his team. •'•Decisions--a decision shall count thrfp points. Draws -- in case of a draw each ten in sljall be awarded 2 points. PUBLIC PULSE All communications for this de- >artment must be signed by the wr;ter, otherwise they will not b« Dublished. The Plaindealer in- , rites its readers to express their pinions in these columns.) A Letter to the Editor: I want to.take you to the theatre. In fact. I want to get everyone iii the •county to the theatre. But first I want to pay a compliment to a group of young married folks who make up the boajfi of directors of the MicHenry County Theatre Gyild. They not only meet once a month, but they also give of their time and energy in the meantime. And (in top of that they pay annual du«-s for the privilege of do* ing so. Their purpose is to get the theatre established in.the county, as a county wide project. 1 think it can be done, and furthermore. that it should be done. The theatre building is here within the county. The stage management and properties are here, the sponsorship is here, the experienceis now here, and the people are here. All that is needed is to get these people to attend. All such things grow slowly, but once established. they carry on in a big ftavlng decided to quit farming, and rent out my 124 acre farm for cash, due to other business ! interests, 1 will sell at Public Auc- 1 tion. all my personal property on the farm known as the old Kar- | pis Farm, located on Pingry Road, j between Highway No. 14 and Cryj stal Lake Avenue, next to the | Chicago & Northwestern Tracks 'Pingry Road is the 1st gravel road west of Highway 31) being l'H miles East of Crystal Lake and U mile north and west of Junction off Highways 14 & 31, on .

Something New on Lightning One of the new things that has been learned about lightning is that it may strike upward from the ground. This is because lightning is really a high-speed flow of current back and forth between powerful electric charges that have accumulated not only in the thundercloud but in the ground below. It aids in avoiding lightning's dangers to know that current flowing up out of the ground probably does the damage. » \ months; Coldspot 6 cu. ft. refrigerator; 5 pc. dinette set; studio couch with cover; other miscellaneous items. ' Not Responsible For Accidents. LUNCH WAGON ON GROUNDS TLR.MS --Usual Bank Terms. WILLIAM A. RICKERT, Owner First National Rank of Woodstock, Clerking. Brothers, this is the time whea W'e like to' i*fcmintsce a little upon the affairs held by the council during the past year, and give some thought to the future. Our G.K.. lecturer, other officers and committees did a job for which we, as brothers, are very thankful. It was an enjoyable and successful year. Unfortunately, there were some brothers who couldn't attend all affairs, due to previous atf* pointments which may have held Changes in the Income Tax Forms For 1950 as in prior years, there are three income tax forms which may be used by individuals-- the regular long-form 1040, short-form 1040 or the wage earners Form 104OA. (Further explanation of these will follow in a later article.) Form 1040, whether used as a short form or long form, has been revised. It now provides for detailed information as to the soured and amounts of income from dividends and interest. This data must be shown in Schedules A and B on page 2. Schedule C, Profit or Loss from Business or Profession appearing 011 Page 2 of the form is now only the summary report of a similarly named schedule on a separate sheet, which provides more adequate room for detail of income and operating expenses from such •sources. In other words, the separate full' page schedule must be prepared and the net profit or lotta from that schedule is carried forward to the summary Schedule C 011 page 2 of the Income tax form 1040. There is no provision for "the computation of tax on the separate Schedule C, so you must use the Form 1040 with it. Taxpayers filing on the basis of a fiscal year ending after Sept. 30, 1950,< but prior to Dec. 31. 1951, will use rorm 1040FY to make the adjustment for the portion of the income which will fall in each of the- Calendar years involved. This forth is not a tax return by itself, but ihtiBt be filled out and attached to Form 1040. The fdrms are well planned and drawn up. A taxpayer who follows the form carefully should have no difficulty in filling out his return. Estimated Tax Estimated tax is a part of the tax collection system which provides for paying currently, any income tax due from individuals required to file a Declaration of Estimated Tax, You must file a Declaration of Estimated Tax. a. If you receive income of $100 from sources not subject t« withholding and you expect your total income to exceed $600. If you are an individual employed as an agile on his final return. A farmer i NAME McHENRY MAN must have estimated and paid an jMpuDr*!} fW f ADM amount equal to 6tT2/3 of what the WtOTOtill Ur tax will be on his final return. jLOAN COMMITTEE Legislation passed by Congress . • in 1949 provides that if a farmer Paul Allanson of MundeletR, files his final income tax return [president of the National Farm for the preceding jear and PaVs,Loan association of Woodstock, the tax iu fuli. on or before Jan. ! 31st, he is relieved of the neces- has aPP°»»ted a nominating comsity of filing a Declaration of Esmittee, as follows: Geo. Smith, timated tax. This provision is not compulsory, however, and a farmer may still file his declaration on Jan. 15 and wait until March 15 to file his final return. Failure to Hie an estimated tax return and pay the tax indicated thereon invites a severe penalty. There are penalties foi failure to file an estimate, failure to pay the estimated tax on the due date and also for substantial underestimation of the tax. These penalties, however, can be avoided in three ways: 1. If the origihal estimates are Hartland, chairman; Clarence Freund, McHenry and Tom Exon, Antioch. This committee will present a slate of candidates for member of the. Board of Directors at the thirty-second annual meeting of the association. This meeting will be held at the Westwood school at Woodstock, Saturday, Jan. 20, at 11:30 a.m. The terms of two directors expire this year: Nick Weingart of McHenry and John Paulsen of Woodstock. The members of this board, according to Ralph L. Ostrander, secretary-treasurer of the associabased on the amount of previous 1 ^011, has established quite a reyear's income and the tax com-1 rnar^(ahle record of attendance at puted under the law applicable toJ^0®^ meetings.

An amended estimate on 1950 income may be filed on or before Jan, 15, 1951, increasing to 80 per cent of the actual tax (or, in case cent attendance since Feb. 1946. Individually, their record is as follows: Weingart, . seventeen years fifteen years with last absence Februray, 1940: William Meyer of Marengo, nine years with last absence December, 1943: Alanson, eight years with last absence. November, 1943, and Louis Borchart of a farmer's return, to within °' Huntley, three years and 100 6fi2/3 of the actual tax.) 3. A final tax return fpr the year 1950 may be filed in lieu of an amended estimate on or before Jan. 15, 1951, for most taxpayers; but as stated before, the farmers are given a due date to Jan. 31 by act of Congress. In each case 80 percent (662/3 in case of farmers) of.the tax for the calendar year must be paid by Jan. 15, 1951. (con't. 'rom page 1) per cent attendance. Besides the report on the yearts business by the secretary, there will be a talk by an officer of the Federal Land Bank of St. Louis. The association makes and services Federal Land bank loans in Lake and McHenry counties and is made up of 222 stockholders as ol Dec. 31. 1950.

The water from rainfall finds its way into Mie ground and is frozen. Since caves generally are most abundant in limestone formations, ice caves also are most often found in such regions, though they may occur in any area where there are caves. Those most favorable for accumulation of ice have poor circulation of air in the summertime, which keeps the ice from melting or evaporating. The lowest and innermost parts of the caves, where the cool, dense air settles and where the warming rays of the Sun cannot reach, are those where the ice will form and remain.

' * STATE REVKM'E Enlarging business activities and more efficient methods of collection helped to produce $293,- 517,284 Illinois state revenue from Six principal sources dnring the first eleven months of 1950, according to a report bv the Department of Revenue. This compares with a total of $275,040,743 for the similar period in 1949. The six most important sources of revenue are the retailers' occupation tax (sales tax), motor fuel tax, liquor tax, public utilities tax, cigarette tax, and petroleum inspection fees. Skin Troubles of Dogs Yiold to N§w Trtatmtnf 0 Stubborn skin diseases that have troubled thousands of dogs are now yielding to new methods of treatment. We are finding that we have to go further than skin-deep to restore healthy coats to some canine skin disease victims. Alopecia is commonly caused by a hormone imbalance. Hormone in-A jections now bring temporary relief in many cases, and surgery often brings about permanent recovery frogi this condition. Furunculosis and acne, usually caused by bacterial Infections, are among other troublesome skin disorders that yield to newer methods of treatment. Many cases of acne and furunctfe losis have been treated with apparent success only to show un^ again at a later date. In such inw stances, examination may reveal that the infection has been "hiding" in some remote and unsuspected part of the dog's body, such as in a gland or in bad teeth. Permanent recovery hinges on simultaneous treatment of the skin and the hidden pocket of infection. Frying Pan Pel- '•*«« If you're in the market for a frying pan here's a few tips you'ltt want to remember. Buy a frying pan made of a metal that can take a lot of heat--like cast iron, cast aluminum, or stainless steel. Steer , away from light weight or poor quality metals. They're likely to warp and then tilt to one side. Here's another pointer--be sure to find a frying pan with a hsndle that's long enough for a good solid grip and won't turn over in your hand. Many and many a bad scal^ or burn has been caused by pan* that do quick about-faces. So the watchword in buying pans is "buy quality", because -bujrinc quality pays off in the end. j Washing Machine Care Washing machines kept in a cold place, such as an outside porch, should be brought into a warm room several hours before using. If thjs precaution is not taken, the oil <A grease in the machine may be so stiff that the starting load will be heavy enough to blow a fuse in the circuit. Also, porcelain enamel tube need to have the chill off before using. If hot water is poured into a very cold tub, the enamel may erack. WEEKLY CROSSWORD PUZZLE * rsN ew U. S.
