GLADSTONE'S Street v McHenry S/SGT. RUSSELL E. FRANZEN strive for a higher- position in life. And, if, after plenty of hard labor and intense study one is rewarded for such a performance, no matter how great or how trivial the honor may be, he has a groat feeling of elation and wishes to tell the whole world of his success. Although Russell Fransen, the second eldest son of , the Leonard Franiens of West McHenry, is very humble about the advancement he has made in the past twenty-one months, we think he is deserving of a little credit for the fine job he has done since he enlisted in the U. S. Army December 28, 1939. His achievements have led up to his refeent rating of Staff Sergeant, which entitles him to a salary ti so*saty-two dollars per month. i The panorama of events which made up the past several months of his life in the araiy present an interesting story, a gradual climb up the ladder which seems ever to leave a few more rungs to be attained. Begins at Brooks Field And so, just after Christmas in lfttt, "Russ," as he is familiarly known, was sent to Brooks field, near San Antonio, Texas, where he got his first taste of army life. Being interested in mechanics, he was put to work in the post garage. However, airplanes were his real love, so shortly after Russ arrived in Texas he had the opportunity of taking an entrance exam for some aeronautical school. He passed this in fine shape and then had to spend a whole year in anxious waiting before he finally received his commission to ^o to school. In the meantime, on April 24, 1940, Fransen was made one of the happiest fellows in the army when he was given his first stripe, making him a First Class Private. During the summer of 1940, Uncle Sam began inducting boys into the army in great droves and Russ relates of how they were made to sleep in airplane hangars until tents and barracks could be erected. He' himself spent the greater part of his first year at Curtiss. Howard began his coilrse in Master Mechanics last December and as he is a ekrifian, it will take him a year to complete .the course. Civilians outnumber enlisted men about 700 to 300 at this school. When the covt*e was finished on July 2, 1941, the local soldier was sent to Paine field, Brerctt, Wash., to put into practice the lo^wledge he had yslaed ia air --rtairir s. At frit, the Sergeant was one of a crew el twe or thrae workers who are assigned to each plane. There are certain checkups to be made each morning and again In the evening. B?sides, there are routine inspections and maintenace work after a certain number of hours in the air. When planes are flown four to six hours a day, these check-ups come around pretty often. Asslgasd as Craw Chief Recently Fransen was given the responsible position of a crew chief, who is ia charge of the workers who may be assigned to him, and it is also his duly to keep the plane in the air, which means that ha must see that the plane is kept la perfect condition at all times. . And now. lsst week came the climax to this tale thus far, for the Staff Sergeant rating was bestowed on this soldier of twenty-one months, making him a pretty happy young man. With less than half of his three years of enlistment still remaining, Russ is determined more than ever to keep on working and perhaps, some day, to be rated as a Master Sergeant, SCHOOL BUSES PROVIDE SAFE TRANSfNTATMN STATE GIVES COMPLETE SET OF RULES there be any parent who is worried about the safety of his children who ride to and from school eftch day on the school bus, let us inform you that every possible precaution is being taken, insofar as the mechanical working order of the bus, the equipment and the physical and moral fitness of the driver himself is concerned. To every school operating a bus service for their pupils in Illinois, a booklet is issued, entitled "Safe Transportation," and it contains the rules and regulations governing school pupil transportation in the state. Contained in this booklet are in-, structions for everybody who comes in contact with this system, the school superintendent, the school board, the bus driver, the parents, the pupils and many, more. Besides obtaining a driver's permit and a school bus chauffeur's license, the driver of the bus \iust pass a rigid physical examination and must REP TO MMnrOfPOBmON nr mam HUMABY Rep. Thomas A.

I William B. Hale, president of the Citizens' Civil Serviee association of Illinois, stated last Wednesday: "The board of directors of the association, at its monthly m--ting jat the Chicago bar association tKls MOT^ananimOUsly agreed that this publicity is regrettable. To state that from four to nine thousand civil service employees were involved in political activity ••in the last election before specific charges are preferred aganst them seems to t indicate that the primary purpose such publicity is to frighten all persons in the state classified service, and to open the way for partisan department officials to secure resignations merely by such threats. There undoubtedly are employees who are not familiar with their rights before a trial board who might feel it useless' to defend themselves.

They are also asked to notify the driver about the condition of roads following stormy weather and to provide transportation to and from the bus line in inclement weather. Pupils' Responsibilities Last, but far from least, a set of rules appear in this booklet which govern the actions of the pupils. The following rules are recommended: 1. The driver is in full charge of the bus and pupils. Pupils must obey the driver promptly. 2. Pupils must obey the orders 6f monitors or patrols on duty. 3. Pupils will occupy the seats assigned to them. Those in less desirable seats may move to other more comfortable seats with permission of ^ the driver after the passenger load is 1 lightened, and when the bus Is not in motion. 4. Pupils must be on time. 5. Pupils must not stand in the traffic lanes while waiting for the bus. 6. Pupils must refrain from unnecessary conversation with the driver. 7. Pupils must not use tobacco while being transported. 8.

Persons so employed, though retaining , the right to vote as they please and . to express privatelv their opinion on political subjects, shall take no active part in political management or in < political campaigns. Violaton of this 1 rule mav be deemed detrimental to ! the public service, and just cause for Iremoval or discharge."* To further amplify the rule, this association has asked Robt. L. Hunter, president of the state civil service commission, to comment. In reply. Mr. Hunter Says: "An observance of this rule is fundamental for the integrity of the service. A breakdown of rule XIV constitutes a return to the spoils system and makes civil service a sham. A state civil service employe must devote his time to his job." Mr. Hunter continued: "An employee who avails himself of his right to vote as he sees fit or to privately state hi? nolitica! views or even to make a voluntary contribution has no need to fear discharge from the state service. Of course, there may be borderline cases which must be considered by* the civil service commission fai the light of the facta in each instance."
