Now, we ask you, is there any reason why McHenry cannot beat Libertyville come Saturday afternoon? , Itmay just be that our boyft '^are not too used to the night air and an afternoon ^gione could be just what the doctor ordered. : ~r \ ...

Cahill j^as. best man. The couple will make their home in Peoria. Opining day of duck season at Grass Lake was quite different frojrn the past few years. Other years the western section o>f the lake has been a "hot spot", but this year most of the ^hooting was concentrated in the; northern part of the lake on the Fox River. We talked to some hunters who had located themselves in the northern section of Grass Lake and they complained that the shooting there was very poor cornpared to that of other years. •' Two hunters, who were luckier than most, bagjged tour geese the other day.

CARPENTIFk ' v o l S t ,i t c Two factors in- motor vehicle accidents overlooked by a great many persons are the mental attitude and the IOSB of temper of the motorist. In the field of safe driving these come under the heading of "onknown quantities." There is no measurement available to-determine the number ot accidents, deaths and injuries caused by motorists who do ngt have the proper mental attitude When, behind a steering wheel or who lose their temper while driving. Police reports can only give known facts or facts obtainable at the scene of an accident. Few--if any-- drivers will admit that an accident ifta the result of the loss of temper or the wrong attitude. Some motorists have a tendency to lose their tempers when they find themselves in a long line of ears on a two lane road or when, waiting for a long freight train to pass a crossing. An example of a driver with the wrong attitude is one who will hog the center line so that other hides are unable to pass his. These two factors do not appeal in the statistics showing the causes of accidents, but they are responsible for a good number of our highway accidents, deaths and injuries^ P=.
