Paul Reai don was rushed to the Woodstock hospital, Where he is still confined at this writing. Mr. Reardon's 13ryear-old nephew, who was visiting from Lima, Ohio, was drowned. The rescue squad, with the help of persons nearby, dragged the river for some time before they recovered the young boy's bodv. They worked diligently on him for almost an hour but to no avail.

Group Sang Here , We were privileged to have the choral club of Our Lady of Victory singing here at St. John's last Sunday, Aug. 22, at the 10 o'clock mass. The club has twenty- four members and will celebfate their twenty-fifth anniversary next August. One of the members travelled 350 miles from Eau Claire, Wis., to sing at the mass. The director of the group of male singers is Frank Barwig, whose father, Anthony Barwig, was the original director twentyfour years ago. J Mr. and Mrs. Frank Schafer entertained twenty-two of the members at their home the same day. with otherwise nice people who come to the country for a summer vacation and return home in the fall minus, one or all of their pets, who they probably feel would (only "clutter up" living in the city.

FIRE RATE REVISIONS A revision of premium rates on certain types of fire and extended coverage insurance on Illinois buildings and contents, to go into effect Aug. 23, is expected to save policyholders more thna $1,500,000 anniially, according to Laddie fT. Pelnar, acting director of the bepartment of Insurance. The reductions are being mad§ as a result of studies of experience statistics made by the department, Pelnar said. LAMB CROP The 1954 Illinois lamb crop amounts to 480,000 head. 5 per cent more than last year and almost 22 per cent larger than the 1943-52 average, according to the state and federal departments of agriculture. Breeding ewes on Illinois farms as of Jan. 1, 1954, were 4 per cent moie numerous than a year previous to that date, and 17 per cent above the ten-year average. fortunately, at least in some cases, they do. This pasj, we^k the Plaindealer received a letter from Mrs. Laurence W. Youngberg of Rf. 2, McHenry, who has been the object of Such imposition not once but many times! In her own words, Mis. Youngberg wrote, "Just two weeks ago, a half giown cat was left here, so hungry it staggered. I took it in and now -have another little mouth to feed along with fourteen others. I do not have milk cows but don't have the heart to turn them away." Those of us who regard our j pets as a definite part of r&our ' families have a warm spot in our j hearts for Mrs. Youngberg and ! others like her, who form their own animal shelter for unfortunate pets who are only the temporary whim of others. The Maldive Islands are in the Tndian Ocean. i versa. Once aloft, the target planes will exceed any maneuvers normally executed by fighter aircraft. When it is desired to terminate the flight, a button is pushed on the control box which shuts off the target plane's motor, opens a hatch and releases a parachute so that the plane descends easily and may again, be - used. Special} construction features enable the target plane to stay afloat if the landing is on water. The first production powerdriven model is a, high wing strut based monoplane with a 6 horsepower engine rated at 3600 revolutions per minute' turning countei- rotating propellers and with a flying speed of 83 miles per ; hour. Another is a mahogany, wind tunnel model built for the Bureau of Aeronautics of the U.S. Navy. A cutaway pulse jet target drone is also shown, this an all metal, radio controlled, pilotless aircraft patterned in principle to the "buzz bomb" used in World War II in the bombing of London. With a speed of 230 miles per hour and a flight time of thirty minutes this was the fastest pulse jet target of its weight class and the first to be put in large scale production. It was also developed for the U.S. Navy. A 7/10 scaie model of another •pulse jet type developed for all types of surface to air or air to air firing is also shown. Special This is the first opportunity ' controls permit? it to fly at a 250 miles per hour. It has a flight time of an hour. It is powered by a 4 cylinder, 2 cycle engine, inverted "V" type rated at 80 horse power. 4000 revolutions per minute. Filled with a special type of plastic bubble foam, it will remain afloat for three hours if it lands on water. The exhibit is located on the Museum's east coilrt balcony adjoining the histoi ic aircraft and radar exhibits.
