My brother took us all out for a delicious dinner. Vacation News Susan and Jeanniejo Benoche spent a few days at the home of Earl and Lois Hansen, friends from Wonder Lake. The girls are winding up the end of their vacation in Chicago with their aunt Ruth Stoper, where they were busy visiting the Prudential building, a trip to Riverview which is a must and then swimming at a pool, so they had a grand vacation spent with good friends and relations. • Have you visited the "Cave of the Mounds" Yet? Well if you are looking fpr something different in the way of thrills that is 'sc place to go. My brother, Otto, (isjlhere from the city and early Tuesday morning we took off to see these caves and I assure you we all enjoyed it very much. From there we went to "Little Norway" which was very exciting to see. We enjoyed both places so much that we made plans to go back next year. The Monte family had a picnic on Sunday despite the rain. The friends who came to enjoy the day despite the weather were, the Mel Sjelsted family from Lake Geneva, TISO from there were the Bill Howland family, the Merle N'ash family came from Walworth, Wis., and " the Bob Vaughn family from next door. 4-H Cardinals The girls had to choose new officers because some of the {iris are quitting. The new officers are Carol Niemiec, president, Jeanniejo Benoche, vicepresident and Ida Leakey, treasurer. They have hopes of being able to use Chapel Hill Country club for their meetings. New Neighbors Those of1 you who new Major and Mrs. Frank ,Beier from across the channel, know now that he has been transferred to Camp K. T. Sawyer in upper Lake Superior.

Hauser and their three daughters, Judith Ann, who is 18 and a student at Lake Forest College, Elizabeth Christine. 15, who will be going to McHenry high and Paula Jean, 10. who will be going to Johnsburg publice school. If there are any skeptics around who think that there aren't any big fish in our channel I want them to know that my son, Charles, caught a five pound big mouth bass in it also a northern that weighed four and a half pounds. School Aagain Well the school bells will be ringing and soon peace will settle in the homes for a few hours and I know most of us will be relieved because the children are getting bored and beginning to argue with one another and I know after a few days of school they will start complaining that they wished it were vacation time again. Best Wishes I would like to send belated anniversary greetings to Mr. and Mrs. Fred Garner. I've been forgetting so many things here lately that I think the terrible heat is finally catching up with me. FILE PETITION ON ZONING CHANGE FOR J.

Know Your Hospital The number of emergency cases treated at McHenry hospital is surging upward, according to figures released by the hospital. During the first six months of this year, 780 cases were treated -- a 16 per cent increase over the Januarythrough- June period in 1958. The monthly average for the 1959 period was7107 compared to 90 in the first half of 1958. An average of almost six emergency patients a day were treated during June of this year. [i-7 Almost 90 per cent of the emergency patients at McHenry hospital are residents of McHenry county. Most of the remainder live in neighboring ^counties but many of these are visiting locally at the time of the accident.

In the under-13 group, two boys are given treatment for every girl. This same ratio holds true for 'teen-agers and patients in their 20's.

Eighty-six per cent of all emergency patients treated are 45"years of age and under. Half of the emergency cases brought to McHenry hospital are treated for lacerations and contusions.

Auto and rboat accidents are among the biggest hazards. Most of the remaining cases result from mishaps involving farm machinery, sharp instruments and tools, and falls. MILLIONS OF REASONS TO MAKE SCHOOLS FIRE-SAFE OPEN FALL CLASSES Barrington's "lighted school house" will offer seven new classes this fall. They are college credit courses offered through the auspices of ihe U n i v e r s i t y o f I l l i n o i s a n d Northern Illinois universitv. ranging in variety from foods onuses to those in advanced clog training for show. Further information can be obtained by contacting Arthur E. Wright, superintendent of schools. Back the attack on traffic accldents--a chance taker is a potential crash maker. There are thirty-nin^ million reasons for making sure our schools are fire-safe: the- nation's grade and high school students. Making sure students stay safe is a job for parents, as well as school officials. "Parents." the National Safety Council said, "are as responsible for protecting their youngsters at school as are school officials. "Through parent and civic organizations, mothers and fathers can press for fire-safe schools for their children. "It has been said that fire safety does not necessarily cost a lot of money. It does, however, take intelligent thought and action -- before a fire starts!" Fire safety may not involve considerable expense, but a lack of fire safety certainly does. In 1957, for example, the 4,300 school and college fires m the United States cost the nation mone than 30 million dollars. What can you do to bring about adequate fire safety in your child's school? Here are some Rational Safety Council suggestions: Parents should teach fire safety as a part of daily living until it became second nature. Schools should, give fire safety instruction throughout the year, and should integrate it iwith such studies as science, arts and crafts, health education and social studies, which lend themselves well to teaching fire safety. Responsibilities of the school administrator, according to the Council, consist of: 1. Conducting regular inspections and evacuation drills, and ensuring construction of firesafe schools. 2. Having sprinkler systems, automatic alarm and detection equipment which can be activated at several points of theschool building, and, if necessary. can be activated with an auxiliary source of power. 3. Regularly instructing teachers in fire and emergency procedures, fire prevention practices, first aid and panic control. _ a i Tlie road to success runs uphill, so don't expect to break any speed records.
