FIRST DISTRIBUTION QF TAXES MADE BY COUNTY TREASURER of BIBLE OTCaSB l.v* CONCLUDES VERY - SUCCESSFUL SCHOOL The McHenry Bible church concluded its most , successful daily vacation Bible school last Sunday evening. This year the top attendance was 118 and the average for' the ten days was over 103 daily. Contributing to "the success of the school were, the faithful teachers and helpers, who were as follows: Nursery department, Barbara Zenk and La- Vonne Dodd; beginners, ^ Mrs. Hueckstaedt, Mrs. Herndon, Mrs. Liberty and Mrs. Miller; primary Mrs. Mayer, Mrs. Pope and Mrs. Bonder; juniors, Mr. Skemp, Mr. Dresdow, Mr. Nixon, R. Beahler, Mr. Knight and Pastor Liberty; intermediates. Mrs. Hansen. The school director for the first week, was Mr. Nixon and for the second week, Mr. Dresdow. The merchants contributing prizes were Lakemoor Hardware, Traffio experts, who base f Lakemoor Variety store, Bjorktheir traffic toll predictions on 1 man's Ace Hardware, Vycital's previous years' experience, gaso-j Hardware, McHenry Department Predict Holiday Accident Toll**^ Traffic/over the Fourth July weekend will claim sixteen lives on Illinois roads, the Chicago Motor club has predicted. A further toll of 735 injuries is expected to occur over this major summer holiday. The prediction is lower than the twenty-five lives predicted for last year. Traffic experts are influenced by two factors in releasing this year's lower predictions. First is the fact that Independence Day falls on a Saturday this year and for most people that means a two, rather than a three-day holiday. The second consideration is the fact that many manufacturing plants this year are closing down for two weeks around the Fourth of July. This means that many motorists will be gone on trips before Uie holiday occurs, thus lowering the amount of holiday traffic. The first distribution of 1952 taxes was announced by Country Treasurer J. G. Stevens last week, at which time it was made known that schools in McHenry county received the greatest portion of the total amount. Of the (2,110,420 distribution sum, $1,492, 750 .went to schools and the balance to other taxing bodies. High schools received $489,- 600, consolidated districts, $336,- 000 and district schools, $667,- 160. The funds distributed last week were from taxes collected^ largely from first installments of real estate and personal property. The second installments of real estate 'are payable until Sept. 1 without penalty. Penalties are charged against unpaid first installments beginning June 1. line consumption figures, and automobile .registrations, point out that the accident rate can be cut by extra caution on the part of holiday motorists. On the open highway the following points are particularly important in holiday traffic. 1. Increase all safety margins. Allow extra following distance, extra room when passing, extra stopping distance at intersection. 2. Watch all intersections carefully and do not depend on protection from stop signs at protected crossings. Approach all Crossing points with caution.. 3. Schedule trips to eliminate night driving, which produces two-thirds of all fatal traffic accidents. 4. AVoid driving when fatigued or under the influence of alcohol. 5. Limit trips to comfortable driving distances. 6. Avoid "traffic jitters". Do not attempt to rush. Allow extra courtesy and keep relaxed when on the road.
