Saturday was the last day that Schultz Drug Store closed their doors on the corner of Woodstock and Main Street- On Sunday Mr. Schultz loaded all of his merchan¬ dise on two trucks and moved it down Main Street to the brand new building inext to the bank. Last wek the Farmside wrote an article telling of the interior and exterior of the shop. This week the Farmside has some pictures of the | interior of the store as it looks | now.  Mr. Schultz  has some  feat¬
ures in his store which are not seen in too many drug stores in this part of the country. One of thsese is a Veterinarian depart¬ ment to serve the many farmers arond the community. Schultz has a wide selection of articles for men. All of these articles are displayed in new blue and black cabinets- Except for minor items which must be straightened out and catagor- ized, Schultz is ready for the people of Huntley and the general public.
Upon enterning: Schultz's Drug store, one will see a scene much the same as the one pictured above. The Interior of the store Is almost lljcht enough to take pictures indoors ^Uthout a flash-

Tax List For Grrafton
This year, for the first time, the Grafton Township Assessment List is being printed in a news¬ paper published within the boun¬ daries of the township. Contained elsewhere in this edition of the pa¬ per, a list of everyone's personal property tax and a partial list of real estate assessments can be found in the Huntley Farmside, as we sent this paper to every per¬ son whose name appears on the assessment list. Taxpayers should read over theird own personal list¬ ings for those who consider their personal property incorrectly as¬ sessed for they have only ten days to appear before the board of re¬ view and file a complaint in writ¬ ing. The txiard of review is located in the Court House on the square in Woodstock, 111.
Legion Donates To Ckildren
The Huntley Legion Post had the regular meeting at the post home on Monday, Nov. 28.
Among  the matters that  were discussed were the following; HERRICK HOUSE:
This is a private home for chil¬ dren who have crippling heart dis¬ ease of any type. This include rheumatic heart disease- While the home is to a great extent self-sup¬ porting, nevertheless they need help from the surrounding com¬ munities. Therefore, it was voted at the meeting that the Legion contribute to the home by buying a portable record player for the clinic in which the young bed pa¬ tients spend so much of their time.
It was als o voted to collect clothes and toys for the young¬ sters there. Collection boxes will be placed in the Legion home, the bank and the post office. What is needed is clothing for children of the ages of 6 to 16. The boxes will be marked "HERRICK HOUSE." I know that many of you people have clothes that your own chil¬ dren have outgrown, but you have them stil Ipacked away. Please do¬ nate those that your own girls and boys no longer need, and be thank¬ ful that your children are not in a home with such a tragic condi¬ tion as heart disease can be.
It was also voted to donate a check in the same amount as the record player will cost to the Leg¬ ion Home for Children at Normal, 111- This is a home for children of Legion members only, and McHen¬ ry County supports a cottage for a group of boys. The money wall be used to give these boys a good

Beneath the pants he had a pair of bermudas which were not sold. Other spectators at the event of¬ fered more money if he would take off the second pair of pants but he declined. $12.50 was taken in as donations for the cake and coffee served after the sale and $22.80 was taken in from the sale of cakes. For the FF.A. mem¬ bers who were not sold because they had other commitments, the group set a $10 minimum for the labor they would have done.

John Riedl was first chairman beating out Len Carls from'Syca- more by V4 a point. LeRoy Ahrens did very well also as Huntley's secretary. LeRoy placed third out of ten secretaries.
Our floor group, despite the ex¬ cellent job done by Terry Hennig, placed seventh. The team's totm points with the chairman's, secre¬ tary's and floor group's points, put Huntley in fifth place as a team. Sycamore took top honors, Wood¬ stock was second, and DeKalb, third. Huntley did very well, though, being only nine points out of first place-
