MGHS LOSES MATH INSTRUCTRESS TO A CHICAGO SCHOOL PLACE YOUR COINS IN MILK BOTTLES; SEND CIGARETTES ACROSS Just drop whatever money you .affable t<, giv«' into one of the thirtynine milk bottels placed in McHenry stores and you will be providing plti%>;J sure for that soldier or sailor far; from home. These milk bottles hnve been placed in the stores by the local post of the American Legion; and the money collected will be used to send cigarette to our boys overseas. , The idea origi nil ted with the I.iggitt- Meyei" Tobacco company,* who make Chesterfield cigarettes. For any contribution given them by the legion of at least twenty-five dollars, they will send cigarettes to servicemen overseas for only fiv® cents a package. '•'•$ For each fifty-dollar contributiotti: thev will also include cards on which T here will be turkey on our tables this 1943 Thanksgiving. Yes, turkey • and all the other things which go towards making that day what it has been in the United States for hundreds of years. There will be friends dropping in to help us celebrate one of the nation's largest holidays and as always we will enjoy the customary festivities so familiar of the day. To most families the day will be much the same as past Thanksgivings except that one or more of the family is far away. For some this may mar the pleasure of the holiday season. May they - and may we all - remember one of our first Thanksgiving days observed in a young America and benefit from their observance of the day. ; - In a land withered by drouth, their holiday tables empty, the colonists set aside a special day of prayer. Their prayers were answered not only by a heavy rain but also by the arrival of a shipload* ed with friends and supplies. A day of public Thanksgiving was set aside at once. While we are celebrating tomorrow as a ^©ublic holiday, why not combine the present custom of celebrating the day with the old fashioned custom of observing it / with prayer. Let's set aside a few minutes for the offering of a prayer for that someone far from home. Af- • ter we have done that we can be sure we have given him the most im; portant of all things.

Her subjects have been mathematics and civics. For the past two years she has been doing graduate work in mathematics at Loyola University during the, summer, vacation -^period.'-. • Popular Tep^fcM1 /, Not only for her proficiency in the teaching profession but just as much because of her profound interest in • both- high school and civic activities did Miss Klodzinski become increasingly popular during her more thi|ii three years in McHenry. Besides assisting Miss Maurie Taylor with girls' athletics in the school, she waa also in charge of th£ entire bond and stamp sales in the school. Under her direction there were purchased enough bonds and stamps to buy i| • parachute, a motor scooter and J* life* float. At present the studenti are purchasing bonds which they i tend will provide a jeep for the army . , i in the near future. For their fine sales to date the government is send* ing them a special award. In civic activities. Miss Kiodunsln < has been a member1 of the surgical dressing class, the civic Choral clufc and the Young -Peoples' Athletic j club. A person who puts "heart and soul" into, everything which she ua* dertakes, she will undoubtedly be missed greatly by the many friend* she has made through her associations. If co-operation and dependability are the keynotes of success she will certainly reach the_top of the ladder. If they are requisites Of a valuable j citizen then not only the high school but the community itself will feel the loss of her departure. Although Miss Klodzinski is the first teacher to leave the school this' term, she is the second to leave in the past year, Coach Gerald Reed having joined the faculty of the pre-flight, schotl in Mount Vernon, la.. 1-ist March..
