We opened our program with the presentation of the Colors and then two new girls. Irene Haegler and Elaine Wagner, roasting, salt the inner cavity, were invested into our troop.

A broiler pan is satisfactory. Do not add water. Turn the bird breast up for the last 30 minutes to brown if desired. Large birds that are too hard to turn can be roasted, up. Keep the temperature very 'ow, 275 degrees to 325 degrees F.. to prevent drying the meat. Allow plenty of roasting to enjoy. After we ate, we danced to the latest records until it was time to go home. The girls were sorry that their leader.

COMPACT IN EFFECT! P0TH LIVE STOCK EXPOSITION OPEN FOR NINE DAYS imo Si of ti \p*d The 60th International Live Stock exposition, opening for a nine-day show on Nov. 27. will offer many side attractions of widely diversified interest for the general public. While not to detrac^ from the main show rings where the blue bloods of the animal kingdom in both meat and dairy stock will be paraded and champions crowned, side features in the International Amphitheatre this year will range from the realms of the fantastic to solid realism, some holding rosy hopes for the future. The horse show, to be presented nightly and five afternoons, will offer an entirely Secretary of State Charles F. Carpentier has announced the signing of the Midwest Vehicle Proration Compact by four states, the first multistate compact providing for p r o p o r t i o n a l r e g i s t r a t i o n o f trucks that has been concluded in the midwest area. The states involved are Illinois. Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota. in cooperation with a committee named by Wilkins. It has also been reviewed by representatives of the 102 county school superintendents. Wilkins said the new procedure is mandatory for custodians and superintendents of more than 5.000 public school building in Illinois, and "stresses the importance of good housekeeping and fire prevention as primary factors in the prevention of fii'es in our public schools." Officials of parochial schools in Illinois will be invited to participate in.the program on a voluntary basis since Wilkins' office does not exercise direct The compact provides for ! control over such private instiproration of truck license fees ; tut ions. imong the states on the basis Semi-annual inspectors shall the proportion of miles tiav- i be completed within the first in each state, Mr. Car- j ten days of the months of Ocpentier said.

In return for this fee pay- 1 ment, the carrier is given full j interstate operating privileges , on his entire fleet ana intra- i state or local operating privi- ] leges on a portion of his fleet. Secretary Carpentier described the compact as "an important step in the direction of interstate harmony in the reciprocity and vehicle taxation area.# He said he hopes it will accomplish a four- fold purpose: ACT ON LICENSES Secretary of State Charles F. Carpentier has announced the suspension of the drivers' licenses of William Caton of Crystal Lake for three offenses and Paul Altissimo, Rt. 5, McHenry, for causing or contributing to an accident resulting in death or injury. A probationary permit has been issued Richard Willig of Wonder Lake. On the one hand, wash-andwear fabrics have been a boon to homemakers. On the other, they have caused a fresh rash of headaches. To clear up some facts and fancies, University of Illinois textiles and clothing specialist Marjorie Mead answers some common questions about these fabrics. What is "wash-and-wear"? This term applies to fabrics having a resin treatment that makes them wrinkle-and spotresistant and easy to iron. How do wash-and-wear\cottons differ from synthetics! Cottons are chemically ppo--{-& cessed at various stages. Since certain characteristics are ""byiiL into" synthetic fibers, these fabrics may require little or no/processing, depending on the type of fiber. Does the wash-and-wear process increase the cost? A good wash-and-wear application costs 5¥2 to ^6 cents more a yard at the finishingplant level. If the consumer knows she's getting a good product, she probably won't object too much to paying these extra pennies. How do wash-and-wear and drip-dry fabrics differ? Wash-and-wear f a b r i c s should require little ironing. Drip-dry fabrics should dry and be ready to wear at once. To be perfectly accurate, every article of both types should be lightly ironed for best appearance. Does the wash-a n d-wear treatment eliminate ironing? Most of the reliable washand- wear promotions do not claim that ironing is not necessary. The labels read "minimum care needed" or "minimum care with little or no ironing." What should be the washing temperature? Washing temperatures vary. Washing instructions should come with the garment. What should be the ironing temperature? Pass a warm iron lightly over the garment. Again, check instructions that come with the garment. What qualities should a consumer expect from a wash-andwear article? A wash-and-wear fabric should be color fast, not stretch or shrink excessively, wash easily and dry quickly, iron easily or need no ironing, resist non-oil spots, soil, mildew and perspiration, be crease-resistant, be durable after wash-and-wear treatment, not. be affected by chlorine, be laundered without special care with other garments and have wash-and wear treatment that will last the life of the garment. If the four walls of your rooms seem to close too tightly a!round you. you'll be interested in some "space" tips from a University of Illinois home furnishings specialist. Robbie Blakemore says that forms can do much to help or to hinder the apparent space in a room. She explains that too many pieces of furniture make a room look crowded and detract from the enclosed space. So she advises using as few pieces as possible to allow maximum free space. The scale of these forms is also important. Small-scale pieces are ideal for smallsized rooms. But avoid overstuffed furniture and patterned or coarse rugs. Miss Blakemore also suggests that you use simple furniture arrangements and placement. Group the furniture against the Avails, leaving larger areas ree wall space between the groupings. But don't put large groupings in front of large windows because they will detract from the spaciousness that large window areas usually create. Large windows often seem to . merge indoors with outdoors. Don't break areas into smaller spaces or you will destroy continuous line movement. For i n s t a n c e , w a l l - t o - w a l l f l o o r treatments make rooms look more spacious than separate rugs with bare floor between. To give a more spacious feeling, emphasize horizontal lines. The movement of these lines can be emphasized through furniture, draperies and windows. Emphasis on verticals through the use of striped draperies adds height to a room, but it tends to reduce the apparent size of small rooms. And a balance of vertical and horizontal also tends to reduce size. Textures and colors play an important part in making rooms appear larger. Smooth textures and fine-grained wood help to create ' this illusion. While large-scale textures call attention to themselves, so do some of the small-scale, highly polished glass or metal. Cool hues, such as blues and greens, are receding colors and are effective in "opening" a room. Colors that are light in value tend to add to the intended illusion too. L a r g e o p e n i n g s b e t w e e n rooms emphasize spatial continuity, especially when the same color is used. See-through shelves may partly divide an area and yet encourage the eyes to look beyond. Mirrors, too, may be used as an illusory de\*ice to suggest distance. Furniture with slendor supports will contribute more to an illusion of spaciousness than boxy furniture. Certainly all of these techniques can't be used, because liomes would seem cold and uninviting. But certain ones can be chosen that best fit a particular home. The Drivers Seat What are the "absolute necessities" of motoring? What things should motorists always have in their cars, because the items cannot be substituted for in an emergency? A careful study of the subject shows that there are eight items that fit this vital category and should be carried by every motorist. Every driver should check the list carefully and make sure he has each of the items. Here they are: 1 . P r o p e r i d e n t i f i c a t i o n cards. A motorist stopped for a routine police check or for a minor traffic violation can be delayed for a long time if he doesn't have a vehicle registration card or owner's permit. 2. Spare cash. A five-dollar bill taped inside the glove compartment can be worth a few thousand to the motorist who runs out of gas and money at the same time in a strange area where his credit isn't welcome. 3. A spare key taped behind a license plate or under a fender can save embarrassing and expensive problems. 4. A tire jack is obviously necessary, yet many cars do not have them. 5. A flashlight clamped to the steering column and available for emergency use can be a life-saver at night. 6. Flares or some other emergency warnings are vital in case of a break-down after d^rk. (Seven states now issue "safety" plates -- covered with a special material they reflect headlights of cars approaching from 2000 feet away -- warning devices.) 7. An old blanket can solve two major problems for motorists. It can provide emergency traction on mud or snow, and it can provide minimum warmth for a motorist stalled for a long time in cold weather. 8. A map can save a lot of valuable time. In areas where there are only a few people from whom directions can be obtained, a map takes on added importance. The motorist without any one of these items is toying with danger or inconvenience depending upon the emergency situation in which he becomes involved. He should have all ot them. tillage of Sunnyside SKATERS ARE ASKED TO HELP REMOVE SNOW Irma Gunther - Reporter EV 5-5484 Once again I would like to say to all the skaters that will be using the channel please help remove the snow when you are asked. Everyone knows that in order to skate the snow has to be removed especially when there is a lot of it. Last year there were many new faces around to skate but when the time came to remove the snow no one showed up but the same four that did it each time. So come on now if you want to have fun you should all pitch in because the more that help the bigger the streach is cleaned and so much sooner. New Arrival Well Laura Muleski will be spending Thanksgiving at home with her family instead of the hospital like she was planning to do because a pink bundle changed all the plans. Little LaDonna Muleski arrived Monday, Nov. 16 a^£, weighed in at 7 lbs. and 7 ozs. Congratulations to Marvin and Laura. Cautionf Home Bureau All members try and come to our meeting on Dec. 2 at the home of Mary Rose in Sunnyside Estates. Besides our regular meeting we will reveal our secret pal of the year and also bring your last gift for them and we will also pick names for our secret pal for the coming year. Once again we would like to stress the importance to parents of the safety of their children when playing outside, Most of us know how carelesfe the children get when out playing on the streets with thdf sleds. Some parts of our roads are pretty slippery and when cars come around the corners it is hard to stop. So please caution the children to be very careful when out with th£ sleds. 4-H Cardinals On Nov. 28 the girls are going to have a rummage sale at our village hall and ihe money realized from this project will certainly help the girls. Last year if you remember the girls were to have a Christmas party with the money they had made selling Christmas cards but instead of a party they sent the money to the fund in Chicago for the families of the children who were in the Oueen of Angels school fire*. These girls work hard on their projects and we should all help them. St. John's Home and School Association All of the workers are to congratulated for their haisi work at the bazaar and thanKs' to the many who brought items to be sold and we can't forget the many who came to buy so that this affair was successful. The money is used to buy many things for our school. Report News Anyone living in Pistakee Terrace who has news th£i would like printed in the paper may call me at Ev. 5-5484.
