Offer New Handbook The American Legion's ^educational handbook, "Need a Lift?", containing hundreds of college and vocational school scholarships for qualified high school students of this area has been presented to McHenry high school and the McHenry library by Unit 491 of the auxiliary. This revised publication for the 1960-61 school year is recognized as one of the most complete sources of career and scholarship information in the United States. The handbook does not limit its listings to children of veterans but contains scholarship and educational aids which are available to al\ students, Lenore Cooley of the American Legion auxiliary stated that thousands of young people have not taken advantage of the generous educational aids which are available due to a failure of plan early for their future education. She mentioned in particular the Junior QI Bill which provides up to $110 per mohth in educational help for sons and daughters of veterans who lost their lives as a direct result of war-time military .service. Over half of the young people eligible for this help have failed to apply. Experience has proven that plans for higher education should begin during the stu-. dent's sophomore year in high school. "The boy and girl who starts considering career aild scholarship sources early is the one with the best chance of j going on to school. Parents and i students are encouraged to. make use of the copies df "Need a Lift?" provided as ft service to the community. r I" v. ^ v ^ % " HFsss Our PfKription Service H at modem at today «-- ucipt for Hit on* vital, on* teen ingredient of ovory prescription -- fime-ftonored inttgrky.

I In any company--in any land--there is one word that is instantly recognized and understood. The word is "Cadillac"--and the meaning, of course, is "quality". And it is understandable, we think, that Cadillac should have become a part of the universal vocabulary. For its devotion to excellence has been of such a degree--and of such a tenure--that the car has become the world-wide symbol of everything good and desirable in a manufactured product. This truth has never been more beautifully expressed than it is in the current Cadillac. Inspiring to look at . . . thrilling to drive . . . rewarding to own--it is truly the master achievement of motordom's master builders. And Cadillac has imposed on its construction the most rigid standards and restrictions ever placed over the assembly of a motor car. More than fourteen hundred separate inspection® now guard the quality and goodness of every Cadillac--and the results of this Crusade for perfection can be seen . . . and felt . . . and sensed. Here is superb craftsmanship in every body line . . . skillful tailoring and magnificent workmanship in every interior . . . and wonderfiil solidity and quietness in every mile of ride. Don't you owe yourself a personal appraisal of this 1961 "car of cars"? x. Your Cadillac dealer will provide the car and the keys for a demonstration at any time. / We know you'll agree that it says "quality" with an eloquence'all its own. - V I S I T YOUR LOCAL AUTHORIZED CADILLAC DEALER OVERTON CADILLAC -PONTIAC COMPANY 400 Front St. • Phone EV. 5-6000
