A free press is vital to the liberty of any people and when you see governments surpressing freedom of spt; jfc you witness a government thai is getting ready to rule without regard to the wishes of the majority. Before deciding where to put your Christmas tree this year, consider these safety factors. Place the tree close enough to &n electrical outlet to make it unnecessary to use an extension cord. This will eliminate the danger of shock and fire .from a faulty cord, says O. L. Hogsett, extension safety specialist at the University of Illinois College of Agriculture. If you j)ut your tree in a large bucket of sand and keep the sand moist, your tree will not dry out and the needles will not drop so easily. Thus you will re- ! duce the fire hazard. «The most satisfactory strings of lights are those that are wired in parallel; that is, when .one bulb burns ouf the rest will remain lighted. - Be sure ail of the bulbs screw far enough into the sockets to prevent tinsel from touching the metak. part ,^f the socket. The hotter strings of lights have a fiber washer that is pressed j against the socket by the bulb. i This keeps out foreign material l and also prevents shock. Chock (to see that the Underwriters' (Laboratory label is on any string that you buy. Whenever you leave the house, he sure your lights are off. Also .be sure the fuse on the circuit supplying the tree lights and electrical toys is not more than 20 amperes. One strange thing in life is that the very persons you don't want to see appear when you least want to see them.

Remember our number McHENRY CAB PHONE 723 AFTER TftE TURKEY DINNER If you think all you can do with a deck of cards is play card games, you're in for a mild surprise. People And all sorts of ingenious tises for the popular pasteboards. Suppose, for example, you are entert a i ning f r i e n d s who don't know how to play any particular card garjie. If they like to watch an exciting horse race, they'll enjoy this game with cards that offers some of the thrills of the "sport of kings.", To play this game, take a pack of regular playing cards and remove the four aces. Then shuffle the deck and remove any seven cards from the remainder of the pack; Place these seven cards face down in a line on top of the table to form the race course. ^ Now you are ready to start the game, which can be played by one as a Solitaire pastime or by as many as four players, one. for each ace. The four aces which are the race horses, are placed in • a line even with the bottom at the seven cards, . the starting point to form an inverted T. Now turn up the top card of the remainder of the deck which ha* been placed aside, face down. If the upturned card is from the spade suit, then the ace of spades racehorse is moved forward along the course the distance of one card length. Then another card is turned up. If it is a diamond, then the ace of diamonds racehorse moves forward on the course the length of a card. The next upturned card may be a heart or a club. If so. then the respective ace cards are advanced as previously explained. This procedure Is followed until one of the ace cards is even with the last of the seven cards forming the race course and beeomes the "winner" of the race. To make the "race" more interesting, certain variations may be introduced. A deuce, for example, might be designated as a wil® card, permitting either an extra leap or a penalty, whichever is agreed upon by the group. Or a player who has turned up a card • of the same suit as his ace "Racehorse" could be allowed to continue drawing as long as he turns up a card of the same suit. 1 This racehorse with cards is almost as much excitement as being at the races and far less expensive. ^3aa3a^3ga3ag3aa3est35g3s^3ea»a3aa3ga?3gs55^3ggt3as53g3g3i3g.»s^3aau8g3agtr^ I M I KREMERS ) HILL VIEW SHOPPING | CENTER fi U.S. 12 - RICHMOND, ILL. £ PALMER HOUSE, Chicago S FROM ARIZONA -- | SQUAW DRESS of cotton £ Georgette, fine as Chiffon. ^ Yards of Lurex braid trim || blouse and rippling skirt, ft, Washable, drip dry. 5 Beige, Toast & Aqua S Sizes 10 to 18 8 $42.50 | For Christmas Giving . . . 8 • Exquisite Jewelry S • Famous brand Lingerie S Knitted Dresses, all types * • Scarves | • Blouses- | $ A complete collection of sweaters in Cashmere, Fur-blends, £ ^ and Orion . . .
