Mann' & Meanderin' (Continued from Page 1) Most of us who drive a car have our share of pet peeves. Last week we found a new one which greeted us on several occasions. We understand that road problems crften make it necessary for emergency repairs which "must necessarily cause inconveniences. What we object to is that when there is no more emergency, the street or highway is left in a condition hardly resembling the original surface. On more than one occasion we have beeri suddenly jolted, even travelling at a moderate speed, in passing over spots'of thisjjind. At least one time, the car\ very nearly left the wheel behind in the rut. The situation; reminds us of the individual, haphazard habits which all of us become engaged in at some time or other in Our homes and at work. Somehow, though, It seems a good deal more inconsldeerate when public officials do the same thing -- especially when we realize we are paying tax money for the Inconvenience. K. A. F.

DREAM'S CULMINATION "Sunday, Jan. 10, was a very happy and proud day for me. The dedication program in the high school, for the library, was splendid, I have been^ told. I ATTEND CHURCH SUNDAY pray that I am worthy of the honors given me. I am grateful to each and every one who took part in the program and to the members of the board who graciously welcomed the guests who came to see the beauty of the library. "I regret that I was not able to be there with them. The opening of the library was the culmination of a dream. The McHenry Mothers club began talking library for McHenry in the early thirties and iri 1936 had 500 books to start a lending library in a room in the high school. For many years they worked adding more books. Later, the mother's club became the McHenry Woman's club and with many new members. The Woman's club con tinued helping the library. "If it had not been for good and faithful people who helped the library, it could not have been what it is today. I am sure it will continue to grow. "Sincerely, "Mrs. C. W. Goodell" tOP SALES HONOR C.
