(This time the men were allowed to come in and eat.) Those attending came from Downers Grove, Bellwood, Woodstock, Rich­ mond, Wonder Lake, McHenry, Ringwood and Spring Grove. FAIR VISITORS The Art Baker family went to Milwaukee to the Wisconsin State Fair on Monday. They had a hot beapttful day to go, they thought,\ but it b^an to rain so they cut) their visit short. As they got nearer home they could see that it was just as bad at home. Judy Rich and her mom, Mrs. Miller, and Judy's five kids left Saturday for Springfield, The Illinois State Fair. They spent a hot en­ joyable time at the fair and arrived home late Sunday night. Judy then took her mom home to Wilmette on Monday afternoon. HERE AND THERE Eva Roach and children have spent the last week with relatives in Indiana. They have found a house there and will soon be leaving us to make their home in Liberty Park, a suburb of Crown Point, Ind. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Roosaman of Cary visited in the Clyde Wright "home last Sunday. Last Wednesday's visitor was Ralph J us ten of Lakeland Park and on Satur­ day Carl Carlson of Oak Park visited with the Wrights. Boy it never rains but what it pours.

Most of the family was present and it was a great thrill to these two people to be a part of such a celebration. Their daughter, Gen, married a Wiser. BLUE RIBBON WINNER Mrs. Nettie Wright entered one of her many braided rugs in the open class at the Lake County Fair, and just like the kids she is so proud of her blue ribbon. Yes she took a blue ribbon, first place for her rug. CAMPERS Dick and Jackie Crosby and children have the camping bug, real bad. Last weekend they went camping somewhere halfway between here and Macomb, 111. They took Dick's youngest brother back and met Jackie's sister and family. Lee Miller went camping too with Grandpa and Grandma Low. They camped at the Lazy "K" north of Spring Grove with the Jerry Freund and the Don Zamastil families. No camping for the Paul Walkington family this past weekend as they were baby and dog sitting. Better luck next weekend. Hope it doesn't rairi.

His head was all bashed in and apparently he died right away, which I sup­ pose is good. At least he didn't suffer, i , I think of all the times he tried to catch our parakeet, the times (without our knowledge) he jumped up on the countertop searching for an extra "goody" and the expression on his face when I caught him in the act, the way-his hair • stood on end, he knew what was coming. He was a typical cat. My husband liked him the best because of his independence, the sleek way he moved in on his prey (usually his brother). The graceful way he bounded across the yard, the Erratic Sowers on Aug. 13. Aug. 14 goes to Margaret Wiedrich.

BUSS FORD SALES way he climbed up the tree when our Great Dane decided he wanted to play with "Skeets". I liked him most for his lovable personality, the way he curled around my feet. He seemed to say, "remember me", wanting to be petted. He will be remembered as a cat we raised and loved not the "lump" along the side of the road. | The sad part of all this was that he was in all day and was only out for a couple of hours, at the most. Unfortunately it was the wrong two hours. If you should accidentally hit an animal and if he is alive and you are afraid to pick him up, please stop and call the police. If he is dead, they will, if possible notify the owners, and if not he will be taken and helped, not just left along the road to die. Are we not, after all, animals too?

The Law Serves You ISBA Urges Homeowners Read Insurance Policy The homeowner who wants to avoid legal complications in case of loss or damage to his property due to fire or other peril should be familiar with the terms and extent of the insurance coverage on his house, warns the Illinois State Bar association. The bar group said a homeowners' insurance policy, usually a package-type Homeowners or "HO" policy, is (Hie of the least read legal contracts there is. Wherefire and other losses occur, it noted, the homeowners' lack of knowledge of the conditions of the policy is one of the major causes of conflict and lawsuits over settlement. By way of encouraging homeowners to read their in­ surance policies and to help them understand the provisions, the ISBA prepared this brief explanation of the major parts of the standard form homeowners' policy: Coverage of personal property: This first part of the standard form policy sets the limits of the insurer's liability for loss or destruction of (1) the dwelling or "main building", (2) appurtenant structures There will be a glass, can and newspaper pickup on Aug. 26, postponed from an earlier date. Volunteers needed, call 459-8163 if you are interested. The pickup will be at the Crystal Lake Plaza from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. for the cans and glass. Newspapers will be picked up at the Crystal Lake high school from 9 a.m. until the truck is filled. 3936 West Main Street Ph. 385-2000 McHenry, III. Invest In McHenry's Youth Bonds Offered Providing For A Youth Activities Building Now Under Construction Semi-Annual Interest 6% -6Y2% -7% Maturing 1 to 15 Years First Baptist Church 509 Front St. Phone 385-0083 Bonds Also Backed by Illinois Baptist State Association The ten year old, rapid growing First Baptist Church of McHenry is providing another service ministry to the people of McHenry. A youth activities building is under construction to provide a recreational facility for all the young people of the community. Perhaps you would like to invest in this effort by purchasing bonds offered by the church to provide for this construction. Call or write the church office. such as garage, tool shed or guest house, (3D unscheduled personal property including furniture, appliances &nd other possessions, (4) additional living expenses, meaning the cost of staying in a hotel or motel and dining in restaurants while repairs to the house are made. The homeowner's most important decision concerns the value and amount of in­ surance coverage of the dwelling itself since other limits are a percentage of the insurance protection on the main building. Thus, if the house is valued at $25,000 and insured at full value, the other limits would be: appurtenant structures, $2,500 (10 per cent of the main-building limit); unscheduled personal property, $12,500 ( 50 per cent) and ad­ ditional living expenses, $5,000 (20 per cent). If insurance on the house is maintained at 80 per cent or more of replacement value, then the full cost of repairs is covered in the case of partial loss. However, if insurance is less than 80 per cent of value, depreciation is subtracted from the payment. Coverage for personal liability: This protection covers the homeowner's liability for damage occurring on his property to the person or property of others or damage done by a member of the family or a pet to the person or property of others whether or not this occurred on the homeowners' premises. Forms and endorsements: This section ekplains what types of losses are covered. In the "standard form", this in­ cludes fire and lightning, windstorm, hail, explosion, riot, aircraft, vandalism, breaking of glas& which is part of the building and so on. A "broad form" endorsement covers additional perils and a "comprehensvie form" offers still greater protection although in all three forms, loss due to flood, earthquake, tidal wave and nuclear reaction and some other perils is excluded. Deductibles: This section states the amount of loss the insured party may be expected to pay himself. Typically, it may provide that he pays for all of any loss of $50 or less. If the loss exceeds $50, he may be expected to pay that amount or a lesser figure if the loss is substantially higher. Usually, once the loss exceeds a certain figure, the insurance company assumes the entire liability. A matrimonial knot is one that does NOT get tighter when pulled in opposite directions.
