The Republican party has held every office in Mc Henry County for nearly 100 years. They switch offices when the law doesn't' permit them to* succeed themselves and snicker at the voters who elect them by large majorities while they ride on the •hirt-tails of State and National candidates and issues. However, many good Republicans have awakened to the need for a change, and in the last few ele<x tions have voted Democratic on - a County scale. The State candidates always receiving many more votes than County candidates on Che Republican side of the ledger. The Democratic Party offers the people of McHenry County aijf outstanding candidate for County. Coroner in Chas. M. Adams. Mr. Adams is experienced; he has •pent considerable time in the office of the Cook Couhty Coroner and at the Cook County Morgue, where he studied the latest methods used in modern coroner's of# fices, various types, of inquest# mid crime detection. If you are voting tot a changji 'don't forget your own county! A* vote for Adams for coroner is a vote for sn efficient coroner who is mentally and physically capable, a vote for the American way at a 2-party system, and a vote for a good public servant III the Community. -- SPLIT YOUR TICKET -- V^tS for Adams for Cm-oner! - ' ' - ' I'^ESSSSSSSSSSSSaSSHMB Woodstock last Thursday following an illness of several months.

Freund. is as old as civilization. Data unearthed by archaeologists disclose that libraries were extant in ancient Babylonia and Assyria. Libraries existed in the days of the Pharaohs. And after papyri replaced the bulky clay or stone slabs, libraries grew in size and importance in Egypt. In ancient Greece it was customary for scholars to have libraries. In the great libraries of Alexandria the works were classified and catalogued. The medieval period saw the growth at several libraries among private collectors in Gaul. Many monastic orders collected libraries as well as produced and reproduced books. In the Renaissance the collection of books was avidly pursued by the wealthy princes and nobles. It took the invention of the printing press, however, to give impetus to the growth and spread of libraries. > You have to plug it in or if won't light yourvoto is Mb fbwer that makes Democracy Burn Stedj/miBttoht Color-Bund Boys Boys are five times as likely rirlf to 'nherlt color blindness. put you in FLYING COLORS Eight saucy Flying Colors . .. white, pink, apricot, yellow, chartreuijfc fuchsia, blue, black.

McConneU For Clerk of the Cireuit Court Lester Edinger For State's Atotrney Don A. Wicks 1 At the Primaries last April 8th, the citizens of this Eighth District and especially the voters of McHenry County honored me by nominating me as one of the candidates for the State Legislature. Thia nomination was the same as election because only three were nominated "to fill three positions. I am deeply grateful for this honor 'and will do all I can to see that this district, one of the greatest in the State of Illinois, la ably represented in the State Legislature. ' • . Now we come to another election, one of the most important since the Civil War, and. many vital issues are at stake. Two of the most important I believe are corruption in government and the controls over our lives (and ^dollars) that the Federal and State government are gradually saddling on the people. As to the Federal Government, the only good that can be accomplished ie to have a complete change. Any party can be in power too long, and the little ward heelers from' big city machines get put in big jobs. In the State government we know what has been going on -- horsemeat scandals, cigarette tax scandals, greatly increased payrolls, and road repairs where it will pay joff politically. But these are not the only issuses at stake. The citizens of the District nominated me to represent them --at Springfield and they expect, and reasonably so, that I will do a good job for both the District and the State. Here's'where I again ask for your support I am now a member of a great team and I will have a better chance of doing a good job for this district if the whole team gets to play and you people elect Wm. G. Stratton and his entire slate of State candidates. Why? Because Bill Stratton is one of us.. He was raised at Fox Lake, right here in our own district and he knows our problems and thinks as we do. He is young, yet experienced. He is honest and efficient and he is capable and vigorous. His ! whole State ticket are a fine group of men who would stand out anywhere. I know them all and respect them. Be sure to vote November 4th and let's do a good job of it. In the National election the only way-to stop state socialism and federal waste is to put Eisenhower and Nixon at the head of the/ Government together with a Republican Congress.
