The Girl Scouts ot troop 320 packed a huge box of Christmas cookies for the Stilling fam­ ily and they gave her a plant while she was confined to the hospital.

I hope that all of you had a wonderful holiday time with your families.

This was his first social venture since his serious illness in Novem­ ber. On Christinas Day we went to my sister's home in Morton Grove where the whole family gathered including our-niece, Jane Hart, of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and her fiance, Jack Mer­ cer of Wheeling.

Little baby 1970 has made his debut by now also and if in our long lists of'new year reso­ lutions each of us decided to do our best to have peace in our own small surroundings pos­ sibly it might spread in time like a virus to encompass the world. b BIRTHDAY GREETINGS Belated greetings to all the holiday time babies who were ;• neglected last week as usual in <ti the hurry and scurry of the days, fc.

Mrs. Rita Ulrich entertained Tax Facts FRI., JAN. 2, 1970 - PLAINDEALEtl- PG, The Internal Revenue Service assured employers today that preparations are being made to furnish, at the earliest pos­ sible date, the rates and tables to be used for withholding in­ come tax from wages of em­ ployees paid on and after Jan. 1, 1970. Computer runs have already been made to determine the rates and tables which would be prescribed if Congress and the President approve the with­ holding provisions agreed upon by the House and Senate Con­ ferees on the Tax Reform Act of 1969 (H.R. 13270). If these provisions become law, the seven regional Internal Revenue service centers will, as soon as possible thereaf­ ter, mail individual copies of the rates and tables to each of tiie 4.5 million employers who withhold income taxes. The rates and tables will be issued as a 24-page supplement to the 1 Mr. and Mrs. Carol Courier of Marengo and Mr. and Mrs. Merle Davis atapre-Christmas dinner party at her home Sat­ urday evening. Regular Employer's Tax Guide (Circular E). The New Tax Bill, as ap­ proved by the conferees, intro­ duces a low income allowance and would reduce the surcharge portion of the withholding tax from 10 percent to 5 percent between Jan. 1 and June 30. It also would eliminate the sur­ charge altogether from with­ holding starting July 1. Before that date employers will be mailed a completely, revised Circular E, containing updated instructions as well as post- July 1 rates and tables. The Internal Revenue Service ffecognizes that ers may not have adequatetime to prepare for the Jan. 1 i over in withholding. it urges employers to do i best in installing the new and tables as soon as possible. Good faith efforts to do so will be accepted as substantial com­ pliance with the law. The White House has toe heme of each of our pres­ idents, except Washington. Things seem to come quicker to people whe hustle twej wait. . » I HDHAi. OttOMT INSURANCf COtPOtATtON Insurance $20,000°° Account McHenry State Bank 3510 W.
