NEW RESIDENTS I would like to welcome Mike and Connie Mohawk and their daughter Jennifer to Prairie avenue. They were originally from this area but have lived in St. Louis for the last year and a half.

They spend their lives pointing in the right direction, but never go that way themselves. -Tribune, Ames, la.

To Your Health A Service of McHenry Hospital by Marion Olsen Health Reporter With most Americans intent on losing weight, the person who is too thin is often forgotten Yet, the thin person struggles more trying to gain or even retain the little fat on his body than the fat person does trying to lose a pound or two. Insurance statistics favor thin people. They live longer. They suffer less from diabetes, kidney disorders and liver and heart disease. However, no one likes to look emaciated. For the thin person gaining wieght becomes a frustrating, almost hopeless task. Some hints to gain weight may be of service to the chronically thin person. Pointless physical activity such as fidgeting and pacing may be contributing to your lack of weight. Try to relax and be sure to get adequate rest. Eat nutritious snacks between meals and at bedtime. Some suggested snacks are cheese and crackers, peanut butter or oatmeal cookies, ice cream and high calorie fruits like avocados. Drink whole milk and fruit juices. However, don't overdo on high-cholesterol foods as they may be injurious even to thin people. Learn to eat faster at mealtimes because eating slowly tends to feel full soooer. make you If you're a smoker, giving it-up will help to add a few pounds. Be sure that snaddng between meals does not interfere With eating adequate meals at mealtime. Fretting over being thin will only use up calories. Enjoy your ability to wear the fashionable plaids, pleats and bright colors and wear a smile (secretly exulting at the insurance companies' favorable statistics). Save 26% On Ladies' Asst.

Theodore Miller^ son of Mrs. Minnie Miller, and an employee of the Illinois Bell T e l e p h o n e c o m p a n y , narrowly escaped death when the company's car, which he was driving, was struck by the fast milk train at the crossing near the Chicago & Northwestern depot. Miller was thrown about 35 feet, hitting against the north end of the brick depot, receiving a bad cut in the head, a bruise of the end of the spine, and injured side and general bruises. Although he will be laid up for several days, he is no doubt thanking his lucky star that he is alive to tell the tale. Announcement was made of the sale by William Pries, owner of the Reardon and Wall grocery and meat market, one of the oldest established business houses in Waukegan, to Arthur Durat of St. Louis, Mo. Mr Pries, a former McHenry business man, will enter the packing business. Advanced Officers' night was observed at McHenry Chapter No. 54T Order of the Eastern Star, with more than 100 members and visitors present. The worthy matron for the evening was Mrs.Calla Perkins, the associate matron was Mrs. Jennie Eddy, and Miss Elsie Vycital served as con­ ductress for the evening. FORTY YEARS UA» (Taken from the files of November 14, 1940). The Town Board of McHenry accepted and approved the bid of the Suburban Oil Company of Oak Park for the con­ struction of approximately U miles of blacktop road in McHenry township. The road improvement project is the outgrowth of many meetings in the past year Everybody wanted im­ proved roads, but the cost of construction was always the stumbling block. With a rapid rise in valuations throughout the township, a spread of cost through a bond was decs ded upon. Quarters were becoming much too crowded at the Fox River Valley Boat company on Riverside drive, due to a large increase in business, so that Joseph J. Rothermel, owner of the concern decided it was high time to enlarge the structure of the building. Theft of ninety dollars from Welter's tavern at Ringwood was reported to Sheriff Edinger's office. The money was taken from a sack of change kept in a drawer in the tavern. TWENTY-FIVE YEARSAGO (Taken from the files of November 10, 1955) With renewed interest in the welfare of the farmers in this community, the McHenry advisory council for the Vocational Agriculture department has met twice in the last three weeks.

Skids also can be caused by driving too close to the edge of the road, with one wheel dropping off onto the shoulder, or by following other cars too closely and being forced to slam on the brakes The main thing to remember in a skid situation is to keep calm and do everything moderately There are two basic actions to follow when you find yourself skidding First, stop doing whatever you did to start the skid; second, to retain control of the vehicle, steer in the direction that the rear wheels are going 1. If you slammed on the brakes, ease up on them Then steer in the direction of the skid 2. If you accelerated too fast, ease up on the gas pedal. Then steer in the direction of the skid 3. If the skid was caused by driving too fast on a slippery road, ease up on the gas ' jf>edal, but do not apply the ^rakes Steer as gently as "you can in the direction of the skid (A copy of Kules of the Koad will be sent (o you upon request.
