Seeing that Bill Pinkonsly is on top as the watermelon king, let's see if some competition can be found for Rudy Barnet who caught a 7% pound channel catfish that measured in at 23 inches. Stop Planning Farm Accidents Accidents on the farm don't "just happen." O. L. Hogsett, extension safety specialist at the University of Illinois, has emphasized that point time after time. Most accidents are c a r e f u l l y a n d c u n n i n g l y planned. And usually it's thef grown-ups who are responsible for the planning. It is foolish for anyone to ask, "How did that accident happen?" Yet this question is asked a hundred times a day in a hundred different ways after some man, woman or child is injured or killed in an accident. If you leave your stock watering tank uncovered, you are laying a possible death trap for some youngster who wants to sail boats on the water. If you leave your corn picfer in gear while you attempt to grease, adjust or unclog it, you are setting the stage for a serious accident. If you leave a ladder leaning against a building, you are inviting a bad fall for children who like to climb up high. The price of an accident is so high that it's hard to see why so many pebple pay it each year. Probably the biggest reason is that they have taken chances before and not had to pay. Eventually, though, the law of averages will catch up with them. Just remember, an accident is no respector of age or experience. It won't kill you to be careful. PROFESS [OriRl DIRECT0RV DR. JOHN C.

Committees has announced apj pointment of memberships to j the various interim commisj sions created by the 71st Illi- ; nois General Assembly. State Senator Robert McClory (RLake Bluff), has been reappointed to the Judicial Advisory council, the Legislative council and the Northeastern Iljinois Metropolitan (Randolph) commission. SHOP IN McHENRY Finance It At McHenry State Bank Ralph B. Johnson, administrator of the Illinois Veterans' commission, stated that veterans and widows in receipt of a non-service connected pension benefit from the government are cautioned of a possible over-payment, subject to recovery by the government. Veterans and widows are urged to re-check the amount of income to be received for the year 1959, since the pension was payable based on the anticipated income of the individual for the year 1959. Eligibility for, pension is controlled by limitations of SI.400.00 for an individual without dependents or $2,700 for a person with dependents. Regulations require that any payee whose income has exceeded the limitation or who receives income over and above the original anticipated amount must immediately notify the Veterans Administration of such excessive income, as failure to submit such notice will result in an overpayment. Upon receipt of notice that income will be excessive, pay- I ment of pension will be discon- I tinued effective as of the last payment and official determination made as to whether or not overpayment is to be charged. Mr. Johnson urges all veterans and widows who have a question relative to this regulation to contact, the nearest office of the Illinois Veterans' Commission. In Mcrtenry county, veterans should contact 'the Illinois Veterans' Commission service officer at county court house in Woodstock.
