The Wilsons have been married since Nov. 1943 and have three daughters. Harriette can't remember how they met, but she said it seems like they always knew each other. Skip is in charge of quality control at a factory in Chicago. Skip is active in the Moose and a member of the Holy Name society. He is a past officer of the association and both Skip and Harriette have put a lot of work into the association. They both love dancing, swimming, skating, boating, golfing aind a good time.

There is Barbara, who is 17p and attends Schurz high in Chicago, fifteen year old Janet who is a sophomore at McHenry and Alice who is 7 and in, first grade at St. John's. Harriette is well known in our community for her leadership of young people. She is the teen counselor and a Brownie leader. She spends many hours of her time to help develop our youth. She sits in at meetings, acts as chaperone and guides them. That's It Almost every home I called today has sickness of one kind or another and ours is no different. So, if this seems shorter than usual it's because your reporter feels like she's been dragged through a knot hole and has the ambition to do nothing. Bye for now, have a nice week. HALF OF DIST. 36 TAXES CHARGED IN 1960 ARE UNPAID Half of the personal property tepees charged in 1960 in the Harrison school dist. 36 have not been paid, according to Audrey P. Walgenbach. She is the chief deputy treasurer of McHenry county and Republican candidate for treasurer in the April primary. Mrs. Walgenbach addressed the Wonder Lake area Kiwanis club Feb. 5. Non-payment of the tax, she noted, amounts to $9,114 and can mean that the school could operate at a deficit for the year against its budgeted expenses. Total 1960 taxes in the district amount to $126,992. Of this, $108,092 is in real estate taxes, of which all but $932 has been paid without protest or abatement. The balance of $18,900 is personal property taxes, of which $9,114 is unpaid. For McHenry township, the total unpaid personal property tax stands at $101,000 of a total $306,000 charged in 1960. She noted that this amount is virtually equal to $306,000 in delinquent personal property taxes in the township dating back to 1942. Total township real estate taxes charged in 1960 amounted to $1,647,000 of which all but $70,700 has been collected.

Milking is now done by machines, handled and processed in closed systems, electronically controlled, whereby milk is seldom exposed to atmosphere or manual contact between cow and the packaged product offered to the consumer. Grade A milk production in the state involved nearly 17,000 producer farms, according to a report from the Department of Public Health. Two thousand six hundred dairy farms under direct supervision of the department were inspected twice last year, and the remainder inspected by local sanitarians. Production of, more than 153 million gallons of milk in the state was supervised by the department last year.
