It is commendable that any classj room should have one hundred per 'cent immunization (protection against j«niallpox). But it is ffclt that those who have been directly concerned--the I children, parents, teachers--may feel : justly proud to have every child in the Public Grade School vaccinated against smallpox, giving, this school a one hundred per cent fating, j St. Mary - St. Patrick's school also | has an enviable record with many classrooms having all but one child protected against smallpox. The high school shows the following tabulation according to classes: Freshmen -- Enrollment, 78; total vaccinal, 58; unvaccinated, 20; outdated, 18. " Sophomores -- Enrollment, 47; total vaccinated, 33; unvaccinated 14; out-dated, 12. Juniors -- Enrollment, 52; total vaccinate, 44; unvaccinated 8; outdated, 33. Seniors -- Enrollment, 49; total vaccin&ted 43; unvaccinated, 6; outdated, 23. The Illinois State Department of Public Health suggests that everyone should be revaccinated every seven years. The high school records indicate that there are twenty-three seniors, thirty-three juniors, twelve sophomores and Eighteen freshmen who should be revaccinated. This in order to maintain the high standard of health now existing in McHenry schools. A. JOANNE RULIEN, "" School Nurse.

COST FOR TURNING IN TWO FALSE ALARMS George Washington was born on February 11, 1732, according to authentic records. Since that time, the old-style calendar has been revised, and 11 days were eliminated. This changed the date of Washington's birth to the twenty-second of February, wh^ch is now celebrated as though it were actually his birthday. (Public Ledger--WNU Service.) BLUE AND WHITE * . Kenneth Giles, 16, and Carl Pearson, 17, Woodstock farm boys who pleaded guilty to the information filed against them in the county court charging them with turning in two false alarms last Wenesday night, were fined $50 each and costs of "$21.40 by Judge Henry L. Cowlin Monday morning. Judge Cowlin said he wanted the bovs to pay the fines and costs and did not want the relatives of either boys to pay. He released the two on their own bonds ori a promise that thev would work and pay the fines. Neither of the boys had been in trouble before and their records in the communities in which they live are very good. Last Wednesday night, a fire alarm was turned in from box five, at the Woodstock Typewriter factory in Woodstock, about 11:45. At 2:15 a. m., another alarm was turned in from a box at Clay and Donovan streets. The fire department answered both calls but could find no trace of a fire. Officers Lewis Thayer and Otto Krull solved the problem when, after the second alarm, Harry Wolf told the officer that he heard a car which sounded like a Model A Ford drive away from the Donovan and Clay street corner just after the alavm sounded. In a short time the officers overtook Giles and Pearson in the Model A. They were taken to the city hall for questioning and after several hours the two admitted they turned in the alarms. They gave no particular reason other than they did it for the fun of it. One of the most fetching of the new crop of bonnets is this striped stone blue and white pique rolled brim sailor. It has a bag to match. FOR SPRING ATTIRE e FOR SALE FOR SALE--Used Electrolux Gas Refrigerator, water cooled; now in use and can be seen in perfect operation.

After dinner he and a guest were smoking on the lawn, "rtie guest, after lighting his cigar, threw the burned match on ' the ground. "Oh, I wouldn't do that, George," said the host. "Why not?" "It spoils the appearance Of everything," was the answer; "It's just those little things that make a place look bad." The guest smoked his cigar in silence for a few minutes; then, without a word, he got up, walked down the road, and disappeared. He returned in a short time. His host asked, "Where have you been, George?" "Oh, I just went down to the river to spit," replied George. GOT ONE NOW AND THEN.. WOODSTOCK HOME w f IS BURGLARIZED ^ LAST SATURDAY Woodstock was the scene of another burglary Saturday when the R. N.
