Readers must judge for themselves how seriously they regard the intention of county and state authorities as a result of the Plaindealer interviews. Probably the most important point is that individuals let these men know that they want, and expect, trt see jumbling stopped permanently. There has been reason for pride in the work of our authorities along many lines. The hearty support of the public should be enough , to assure the same pride as the gambling situation is cleared up.

Firemen Extinguish Flames In Box Car Members of Company I. McHenry Township Fire Protection District, were called to the North Western railroad tracks last week Wednesday evening to extinguish flames in a box car.

They answered a similar call Tuesday afternoon. at 3709 W. Elm street and Millstream Drive at 6 o'clock Friday evening. Barbara A. Vogel of Wonder Lake was reported by city police to have signalled for a left turn from the center lane and stopped for oncoming traffic. Walter C.

The Illinois state library will be closed Saturdays throughout the month of August, Secretary of State Charles F. Carpent ier, state librarian, announced loday. The Saturday closing applies to the library's headquarters in the centennial and archives buildings here and to branches and service centers throughout the state, he said. The plan has been adopted to facilitate the vacation schedule for staff members and because use of the library's facilities is at its lowest point during August, Secretary Carpentier said. The South Pole receives more hours of sunshine than any place on earth during December, but not much heat, due to low angle of sun's days, and high degree of reflection due to so much snow. =---r~ Oklahoma has a Broken Bow and a Broken Arrow, and Nebraska has a Broken Bow.

Usually we are so uncomfortable we don't stop to consider why they are so named, but. as might be expected, the Greeks gave us the name for this summer misery. The ancients derived the name from the dog star, Sirius, which rises with the sun during this particular period. The more superstitious folks once believed that the days were named because dogs are most likely to get rabies at this time. As long as we're suffering, we might as well become enlightened with the fact that Sirious, ihe brightest star in the heavens, radiates almost thirty times as much light as the sun. That isn't the reason the weather is so hot, but it does make us pay attention to the star. I CITY COLLECTS 1 $5,651 ON HALF PER CENT TAX ! Mcilcnry's share of the city sales taxes col le.ted in May, representing a tax of one-half per cent on reta'i sales collected in May on April sales, totalled $5,651.33 to rank third in the county. Crystal Lake was high witli $7,361.12 and Woodstock second with $6,.SS5.- 89. M c H e n r y c o u n t y ' s s h a r e amounted to .'57,417.76. Receipts coli&.jtod from the retailers' occupation tax and use tax at the rale of 3 per cent, grouped according to kinds of business, reached $234,806.24. Food topped ail classes with $74,100.56. Collections in Ih's community were as follows: McHenry $34,761.71 Wonder Lake • • • •$ 2,198.64 Johnsburg $ 778.66 Island Lake $ 295.23 Lakemoor $ 637.29 Sunnyside $ 304.51 Ringwood $ 381.24 Spring Grove 1,529.23 Richmond 3,708.42 Food Sense--Not Nonsense Degrees Conferred On Area Students MOBILE X-RAY UNIT TO VISIT THFTOUGH COUNTY •McHenry c o u n t y r e s i d e n t s frill soon have an opportunity to make sure they do not cany the germs of tuberculosis. The mobile X-ray unit and a skin testing team will oi>erate in the county from Aug. 1 through Sept. 13. Mrs. Claribel H. Naylor, R..N., McHenry county tuberculosis nurse, has scheduled visits to the industries in the county from Aug. 1 to Aug. 14. After that date the mobile x-ray unit and skin testing team will visit each Community. --For the- first time, a skin testing team under the supervision of Dr. Henry W. Sandeen, member of the executive board of the McHenry County T.B. association, will accompa- ' ny the mobile X-ray unit. j '..Mrs. Naylor points out that the purpose of the skin test is luite different from that of the X-ray. While the chest X-ray taken by the mobile unit can show, lung damage from tuberdulosis pr other causes, the tuberculin test tells if a person has TB germs in his body. , The tuberculin test will be 1 given , to all persons under 30 ! years of age and to anyone over 30 who asks for it. Those who react to the skin test and persons over 30 may be given a chest X-ray by the mobile unit. A schedule of visits will ap- • pear in a future issue. Sad but true picture. This sad driver has ignored the advance railroad warning sign and is driving around the gate put there at great cost to keep him alive. Red lights are flashing--warning bells ringing. He saw a standing train down the line but not the 90 MFH express on the other track that hit him. In a hurry, he died in a hurry. The University of Illinois conferred 5,517 degrees in the year ending June 30, and graduates during the two winler semesters -- receiving degrees in February and June-- totalled 4,348.

A tarpaulin which covered the stack was also lost. The hay had an estimated I value of $300. The sheriff's ofj fice has been investigating, aided by footprints made clear because of rain the previous evening. "It's No Fun To Eat Alone" It's inhuman to eat alone. A dog knows this. Teen-agers don't like it either. At the recent National Youthpower Congress in Chicago, delegates frankly confessed they would like to eat dinner with their families. And, they confessed, they are not apt to eat tke right foods when they eat alone. Such views may startle parents. So may t.hi« report from a pretty teen-age discussion leader: "Parents are not strict enough in forcing us to eat the right foods." Adults and children alike, the teeners said, tend to choose from only one or two food groups and ignore the others. The delegates adopted this remedy at the Congress: "We plan to concentrate on getting all four food groups (enriched or whole grain bread and cereal, meat or an alternate, milk or cheese, fruits and vegetables) and the right servings of each." The delegates' ideas--and their dreams--were as clearly defined on the subject of the family and dinner. They would like dinner to be an occasion, one that might demand a clean shirt as well as clean hands. They would like a pleasant setting for dinner. They would like - father to say grace. As the teeners spelled out their solutions, they pleaded, "We need these helps from our familigg and the community." • Family members should manage their time so they win eat together. • Fathers should arrange to be home for Hinmy whenever possible. • Activity" leaders in the school and community ahrmld tim« meetings to allow for family dinners. • The dinner hour should be flexible enough to permit pressing activities of individual members. Teeners at the Congress were willing to go to all lengths to achieve their goals--even to asking their parents to cooperate. "After all," they said, "it's no fun to eat alone." Installed into the auxiliary unit were the following^ Front row, left to right, Henrietta Vycital, secretary, Mary Einspar, incoming president; Mary Kantorski, first vicc-prcsidcnt; Margaret Scharf, second vice-president; and Loretta Meyer, recording secretary. Standing, Janice Bauspies, treasurer; Marie Howe, outgoing president; Dorothy Weichmann, chaplain; Roslyn Volpendesta, historian; and Helen Schmitt, sergeant-atarms.
