A vaat number of new enterprises, the NAM stated, would help to feed, clothe, house and "serve the 'countless other needs and desires" of a population expected to rise to 199,000,000 in the next tweffty-two years. its future potentialities."' It stated that they should be "help* ful to all thoughtful citizens whc want to play their part in building a better America." The association had previously announced that if the U.S. population rises to 190,000,000 by 1975, as expected, it is probable that the work force will rise to 88,600,000, to show a gain of approximately 38 per cent over the 1952 total of 66,- 500,000. Earlier findings also included an estimate that the country has a "potential capacity" to support this greatly increased population at a level 70 per cent above that prevailing at present and that a two-fold Increase in national income is "well within Another beautiful wedding took place at St. John's church on Thanksgiving Day. The ceremony united Miss Betty Miller, daughter of the Pete Millers, and Jack Smith, son of the Art Smiths of McHenry. The newlyweds will move into their newly completed home in Edgebrook Heights in McHenry upon their return from a wedding trip. ' A bafig»tep dance icnk place at the# Community club last Saturday evening. ' The dance was sponsored by the' Johnsburg rescue squad, with musfc furnished by the Badger Hotshots. There haven't been so many people at a dance like that for as long as I can remember. Everyone surely got behind the cause for which the dance was held. The rescue squad hopes to purchase more new equipment with the proceeds of the dance. There was much visiting going: on over this last Thanksgiving holiday. ' Mr. and Mrs. Harry Freynd and daughters went out of town to spend a few days with Mrs. Freund's family. Charlie Hiller left his studies in college to spend some time with his parents, the George Killers. The Gerald Wakitsch family entertained about fifteen relatives from Chicago for dinner and supper on Thanksgiving Day- Mr. and Mrs. James Hettermann had the Hettermann family for Thanksgiving dinner. The twentv-®'ght members of the family attending were Mr. and Mrs. John Herdrich and family. Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Stilling and family, Mr. and Mrs. Ed Hettermann and family, Mr. and «erafr! Hfctterm'ann aftd daughters and Mrs. Helen* Hettermann. ; ' , ' The Community club will hold their monthly meeting at 8:15 sharp on Dec. 7. All members are urged to attend because election of officers will be held At the close of the meeting, hassenpfeffer will be served to all members attending. I would like to take this opportunity to welcome the Allan Electric company to our town. They have opened their business in the spot formerly operated by the Smith Grocery store located on Main street. The company is under the management of Tom and Jack Allan. t Hie Johnsburg rescue squad wishes to extend thrfhks to the many persons who helped make the dance a huge success. GAME CODE CHANGE Director Glen D. Palmer o* the state Department of Conservation has called attention to change in the Illinois game code made by the 68th General Assembly, prohibiting hunting ad' jacent to a timber, or brush or prairie fire. Penalty for violation is a fine ranging from S25 to $300. ' The report further reveals reac^' °* Americans within the next twenty-two years. All the findings except that relating to population were conditioned on the assumption that America's individual enterprise economy Will be kept vital and dynamic, and that nothing is done to "weaken incentives to that 4,900,000 business ' firms will be in operation by 1975 if recent and long-term relationships between growth in population and number of businesses are maintained, adding: "This means a net addition of nearly 850,000 firms over the 4.050,300 companies which werfe irf business in 1952. More than that, it means opportunities for enterprising Americans to build successful businesses and, by serving the needs of their fellow citizens, to earn the rewards that success in business affords." The NAM'S 'estimate waas based in part on U.S. Department of Commerce figures on number of business firms and in part on an earlier NAM study which showed that over the years business enterprises increased in number about as fast as the country's non-farm population. The Department of Commerce has reported that the United Statea had 3,097,100 business firms in 1929; 3,382,800 in 1940; and 4,050,300 in 1952. The NAM data showed that between 1900 and 1947 the ratio between business firms and non-farm population stood fairly constant at 3.4 firms for each 100 persons. The report commented that the NAM's figures are directed toward "developing sound facts about the country's growth and Twice Told Tales work."

Forty Yearn Ago s Residents on the west side of town and others who happened to be on Main street at .about the noon hour on Wednesday were greeted with a most pitiful sight when a young lad was seen sitting in a farm wagon waiting for his father to come from a saloon. The boy WBS barefooted and attracted considerable attention from those who saw him. Officer Revor was notified and was not long in getting the father started for home. The body of Edgar Clement Howe, more familiarly known to the older residents of this village as "Boat," was found near a haystack at Proviso, west of Chicago, Wednesday afternoon of last week. A bullet wound in the side of his head, together with a revolver containing three empty chambers, was the only evidence as to the cause of his death. Some seemed to be of the ^pinion that the deceased came to his death by his own hand, while others are, sure that he was murdered. The presence in our village during the past week or more of a -number of itinerantajjas kept the cot's in this ^'village lock-up comfortably warm. Mike LaVelle, who has acted as telegraph operator at the local depot during the past few months, has been transferred to Rockford. The water in the mill pond is higher than it has ever been in the history of that body of water. Parents should warn their children of the danger in venturing too close to the shores.
