t 6, SEC. 1 - PlAlNPEALER- OCT. 4, 1967 Hub Of A Community "Retail advertising is the most important factor in the immediate purchase of new products which reduce labor ^ai»d make living more pleasant and healthful.. ." This assertion was made by a suburban retail association attempting to analyze the factors which contribute to community welfare. _ More than merchants in older county-seat cities the suburban retailer recognizes the need for a strong community newspaper. Perhaps, this is because he often begins without the aid of a local newspaper and knows from experience the difficulty of operating without an efficient means of advertising. Other things taken for granted in established trade centers taicp on new importance through the eyes of the suburban retailer. He realizes that all local institutions are closely related. A jumble of stores and houses does not become a thriving trade center. Good schools, stable government, ancLrecreational and cultural facilities aire necessary to the long range commercial and industrial development of any community'-- suburban or estab- The newspaper is the main unifying forceln any community. It is the hub around which other institutions revolve.

A newly reconditioned pipe COUNTY TAX SALE SCHEDULED FOR OCTOBER 23 "Just what is a tax sale?' is a pretty reasonable question this time of year. Pages upon pages of names, legal descriptions and amounts due were published in many papers in McHenry county recently. The names are those of individuals and businesses who have not yet paid their real estate tax to the County treasurer. To collect the money that is needed' by local tax districts, individuals and/ companies will be able to "buy" the taxes owed on these properties. Perhaps "buy" isn't the right word. In fact, the public will be given en opportunity to pay these taxes. That chance will start at 9 a.m., on. Monday, Oct 23, at the courthouse in Woodstock. Naturally, no one is going to pay someone else's taxes out of the goodness of his heart And state law recognizes this. If a person does not pay his taxes before the tax sale on Oct. 23, he immediately owes an additional 12 percent as a penalty for late payment. Eventually that penalty may rise to •24 percent per year for two years. And after that, if the back taxes are not paid, a r&on mast well lose his pror gained in the little theatres of Berkley and Pasadena, Calif., Cleveland and New York City. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Oct, 1, 1942) John Fay, 69, former resident of McHenry, died in Chicago, Sept. 23; Mrs. Mae Weldt ana family are moving Thursday from the Carey place on the old Elgin road to Chicago. Mrs. Weldt has accepted a position at Hines hospital. Private JohnCooney, who was inducted into the Army recently, is located at Fort Riley, Kans. Friends and relatives were stocked to hear of the sudden death of Harry S„ Garland who was accidently killed Sept. 24 in a truck collision on his way home from Fort Wayne, Ind. He had made his home at Griswold Lake with the Witt family. Walter J. Gielow, who has resided with his family on the Boyle form at McCullom Lake for about a year and a half, died of a heart attack while walking at Randolph and Wells street in Chicago, Sept. 24. The house on the old Elgin road belonging to Miss Ermine Carey has been sold to Clarence Niesen. Last Thursday members of the local Motor Corps took a station wagon and a car filled with cookies, cigarettes, etc., to Camp Grant, Rockford, for the soldiers at the hospital ship next Sunday at the Community Methodist church. A Hartford, Wis., couple who made McHenry their home in. the earlier days of the century died within fifteen minutes of But the delinquent taxpayer can redeem the tax sale an}' time within the two year period.

M". and Mrs. Nick Young of Main'street will celebrate their golden wedding anniversary on Sunday, Sept 29, with open house at the Legion home.

Lobitz, followed by the oldest active voting member, Mr. A.J. Kamholz. Today, Sept. 26, Stephen H. Freund, one of the community's most outstanding residents, observes his ninety-third birthday anniversary. Anyone who failed to pay his taxes in either 1965 or 1966 would do well to check with the County Clerk's office to see if they are about to lose their property through a prior tax sale. Next week a detailed explanation will appear in this paper of how to go about buying taxes. The motto "Let the Buyer Beware" is perhaps more relevant here than in most expenditures of money.

Alan can quit tobacco at once if he will merely resolve 100 percent to do so! The trouble with most addicts is their failure to make that 100 percent decision. They hedge and procrastinate and resolve only 50 percent or 75 percent to quit. Send for the booklet below and you can add 5 years to your lifespan. And also revive your erotic vigor! By - George W. Crane, Ph. D., M.D. CASE D-574: Alan J., aged 28,is a tobacco ad "Dr. Crane," he beten, "my blood pressure has beeK zooming. "So irjj^ family physician urged me to quit smoking. "So I have tried to taper but without success. "How can a heavy smoker break his slavery to nicotine?" CLEAN BREAK It is very difficult to break a bad habit merely by tapering off. That is one reason why fat folks have so much trouble trying to slenderize. In fact, it is really much harder to lose weight than to quit either the tobacco or liquor or dope habit! For in those three unnatural acts, the victim can make a clean break. He can thus stop entirely his use of tobacco. But that is not healthful regarding food, for our body needs fresh protein every day to replenish the worn out muscle cells, especially those in the heart! When quitting tobacco, try to substitute a similar muscular pattern that is less objectionable. For we have found by experiment that it isn't the craving for nicotine but the desire to wave one's arm around in the act of smoking that bothers the addict. The use of chewing gum is thus a partial answer when quitting cigarets, for you consume energy while using the jaw muscles. They don't drain off energy as fast as by waving your arm, but you can continue chewing much longer and thus equalize the total energy expended. Other muscular outlets for relief of tension, consist of twirling your key ring or toying with a watch chain or tossing a pencil in the air, and over end, as you talk or watch television. . ^ Another stipefb device is to keep rubber bands in you pocket and then hook the little finger in one end and the thumb in the other. Meanwhile, bring the parallel bands over the knuckles. . Then try to get the rubber band off that hand without use of the other hand or without rubbing it against any other object. You'll be surprised at how much twisting and turning of the arm and hand will result This drains off the surplus nervous energy that otherwise makes the tobacco addict reach for a smoke. Remember, we have tested smokers with de'-nicotinized cigarets and found they didn't know the difference! So the cigaret habit is chiefly a means of letting off "steam" via the act of waving the hand and arm for 5 minutes. Since the average smoker lops off from five to seven years of his life-span, it is smart to eliminate slavery to smoking. And every smoker can do so easily, if he has a serious heart attack or lung operation for cancer! For then he resolves 100 percent to quit! So why wait till you are half dead or with maybe only 18 months of life remaining, due to spread of your cancer to the liver? n'B'ii B'yva'BTBB'g ii'5'i riTi'D. Are Y®b New i O In Tow>?
