Pege EleMeaa THE McHENfflT PLAINDEALEB Thursday. February 15, 1962; Village of Sunnyslde OWNERS OF DOGS MUST OBTAIN LICENSE TAGS Glenda Wleck - S85-4716 The village meeting was held, Monday, Feb. 5. The dog tag situation was again on the agenda. It was decided that everyone must have a dog tag for their dog. If your dog had a rabies shot sometime during last year and it doesn't expire until sometime this year, you should still have proof of it having that shot. The tag with the number of the shot on it and also your veterinarian's record showing the number and date it was given would be your proof. You must have a tag and the law is being enforced, so if you don't want to be subject to a fine you had better get your tag immediately! It is for everyone's protection that • the dogs receive these shots. dance were aunts, cousins and girl friends of the guest of honor.

All of the May children have had the chicken pox and little Darryl is just getting over them, but before the chicken pox bug had a chance to take leave of the May home an old timer by the name of Mr. Mumps dropped in and landed right on little Alfie.

Illinois February 15, 1962 To The People of McHenry: Due to our extensive remodeling program, we will close February 15, 1962 for approximately four (4) weeks. PLEASE WATCH FOR OUR GRAND RE-OPENING ANNOUNCEMENT Harry and Mary E. Dean and all the Employees of BEN FRANKLIN in McHenry o UNIT 491 The American Legion's education scholarship handbook, "Need a Lift", containing information about hundreds of college and vocational school scholarships for qualified high school students of this area, has been presented to the McHenry Community high school and to the McHenry public library by the McHenry Unit 491 of the American Legion auxiliary. This revised publication for the 1961-62 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 listing to children of veterans but contains scholarships and educational aids which are available to all students. Mrs. Lenore Cooley, education and scholarship chairman of the American Legion Auxiliary Unit 491, stated that" thousands of young people have not taken advantage of the generous educational aids which are available due to a failure to plan early for their future education. She mentioned in particular the Junior GO Bill which provides up to $110 per month for four years of educational help for sons and daughters of veterans who lost their lives as the result of military service. Over half of the young' people eligible for this help have failed to apply, Mrs. Cooley said. Experience has proven that plans for higher education should begin during the student's sophomore year in high school. Here are thumb-nail sketches of some of the other activities being carried forward in the average auxiliary unit: For Disabled Veterans. This activity is called "rehabilitation aiiu itS aiTu IS tC help disabled veterans toward recovery and re-establishment of normal lives The work is done in the veterans' hospitals and in communities.
