But I like He Wears a Pair of Silver Wings and the one about the Stage Door Canteen. Something, that makes me feel sorts shivery ana gives me a. thrill is a larged mixed chorus singing "God Bless America, accompanied ny a large band.

The first tune I ever heard Deep Pur-pW was when it was played by the DeKalb Township high school band. I thought it was five most beautiful song I bad ever heard. When I was a freshman in high school Flat Foot Floogie was' the rage. Ehra June Hitemhn, one of our Forreston gals of the class of '40, is employed at a beauty shop in Rockford. She Just went baric to work i on Monday after spending a two weeks vacation at home.

She said she didn't know what to do with herself but her sister Meitha was home from Idaho whom die hadn't seen for some time so I guess it was nice to visit with her. El vs graduated from a school of beauty culture and worked in a shop in PCcatanica before going to Rockford. She rooms with two other Forreston Janes in Dolly Mase and Naomi Meiners.

I call several people on Monday, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, and when someone answers the phone I say Hello, Mrs. So-and-So" and if I think it is her daughter I always say her name well, I usually guess wrong.

Whenever I call the DeGraff sisters and one of them answers I either say Hello, MM Mattie or "Hello, Miss Jennie." When I say MM Mattie it is always MM Jennie and vice-versa. I'm just not good at If you dont believe it. Just ask Mr. Masterson, he knows. When he came 19 with those true or false questions in history classes, I eras always putting true where 1 was supposed to put false, and false where it should have been true unless I definitely knew the answer and that was very seldom.

HARVBTOFSaiAP IRON BEGINS SOON September ia Mouth of Big Drive to Get in Tons of Scrap Iron -for Blaat Furnace Fanners now busy with threshing will soon be participating in another big drive for scrap iron for the bloat furnaces of America's war industry, according to Mayor Joseph Mm, chairman of the Forreston salvage committee. A special period will be initiated in September culminating with a big Junk Rally September.

19. Further details on the drive will be announced during coming weeks. Farmers have stated that they do have scrap dron their farms but they are so buoy Hit that they can not take the time from threshing to get it ready. After threehing they will dig into the scrap pile and really turn in some tons. It ia urged that boys anjl girls begin gathering the scrap iron now both in town and country so that tons and tone of it can be.

started on its way to the steel mills. Reports from scrap dealers Indicate that nearly 200,000 tons of farm and home scrap will be salvaged in Illinois in the weeks drive which ends September 1. The quota set by WPB was 100,000 tans. Forty-five thousand tons were collected in the first two weeks, Robert Tieken and George M. Eisenberg, co-chairmen at the Salvage committee, Illinois State Council of Defense, reported to Gov.

Green today-This is 45 percent of WPBs quota, which Tieken and Eisenberg raised to 125,000 tons because of the urgent need for scrap now. The flow is increasing daily, Tieken said. Americas war machine will use nearly 90,000,000 tone of steel this year, which means that at least tons of scrap must be salvaged. In the first six months of 1942, Illinois sent. 1,250,000 tons to our hard aed mills; Tieken said.

The state's quota for the final six months is tons. This includes fend and home, industrial and mill salvage. The scrap rubber salvage picture is bad, Tieken said. JSince the' end of the recent national drive, the flow has dwindled alarmingly. Our normal rubber supply has been lost to the Jape, ha warned and salvage must replace it.

1 Major Joe Mui Bays That Harper, Bailejville, and Forreston Did Wonderful Job1 People to Forreston township know how to cooperate to blackouts! Thats the opinion of Mayor Joseph Maaa who this morning said that the practice blackout Wednesday night from 10-1030 oclock was practically 100 percent successful. There were a few red faced officials the first two minutes past ten', while same of the downtown street lights refused to be blacked out Then darkness settled upon Forreston and all was dark and still. Cars were off the streets, lights were out total blackness rulea for the half hour thus showing that For- reston. Harper, and BaileyvUle residents are ready to safeguard them-. selves if.

and when necessary. In a downtown apartment one nervous Nellie was noted lighting up for a smoke. The flicker loomed large to the blackness. When an Official called out the forgetful one quickly extinguished both the match and tobacco. One report came to of a radio glare from, a window where the shades had not been drawn.

Ben Uiumgst Sr. brought to the unique re- athat on his best, he encoun- only three alley cats and they had their eyes blacked A. light noted west at town and a little north to now. believed to have 1 been a railroad signal light. Highway watchers reported that not a sin- gle car showed up on the roads entering town.

It is believed that no town to Ogle county did any better Job thro Forreston on this test blackout. 1 John Leisaon, prominent local Legionnaire, was chief air raid warden and Clifford Billig, former county commander of the Legion, was chief air raid The following five men, appointed by Mayor Maas, guarded the roads leading into town: Harry ButteL Henry Hayenga, Jim Foster, Charlies Lang, and Howard Heilman.

Meyers Loses Fish Crown By a Mere Half a Pound! R. H. Meyers, holder of the fish championship of the commu i nearly all summer was knocked off bv Ralph Dikkers a few days ago. when a big carp sought out his hook and proceeded to show Dikkers that he wasnt half the man he'd figured he was. So the man on the end of the line used some interesting language to Mr.

Fish and finally landed him. The carp weighed 6ft pounds, just a fourth of a pound heavier than the Meyers fish. Now Meyers is out now and then exposing himself to the largest of the finny inhabitants of Leaf River in the hope of having one chase him, one say a 7-pounder, Just enough to put him back on the fish throne! 11.000 CITIZENS ARE YET UNREGISTERED Two Opportunities Will Be Available at Tour Voting Place to be Registered under Law Of the 11,500 or more citizens of this county bid enough to vote, only 500 have qualified to date under the new law which requires permanent registration, according to figures from the office of Mrs. Ada McGurk, the registering official.

It to imperative that every person who wishes to vote this fall ace to it that he to registered, thus avoiding delay and confusion at the polls, and bear to mind, that this year you must appear before the county clerk or the board to your, precinct at the prescribed dates and answer, the questions required to constitute a permanent Motorigls, Beware There win be no more warnings to motorists who have not purchased their (5 car use stamps.
