The four faculty members participating were Mrs. Charles Jurack, Miss Mary Kinney, Mrs. Kathleen Downs and Carl Wagner. The board passed a resolution giving an easement for a sewer line across the back part of the property at Landmark school. The board approved the employment of five additional teachers for the grade schools in the 1961-62 year. They will include a speech therapist and teachers for first, second, third and fourth grades. Teaching contracts were approved for Mrs. Marlene Goetschel to teach fourth grade at Hilltop to replace Miss Sylla, who resigned; also for Miss Jean Anthony to replace Mrs. Johnson as music instructor at Edgebrook and Junior high schools. , A total of $500 was approved for the band fund. The March meeting has been postponed until the twentieth due to the meeting of the American Association of School Administrators to be held in St. Louis. Firemen Answer Three Calls For Minor Blazes Firemen from Company I were called out twice last week, but neither fire was of a serious nature. Thursday afternoon they hurried to a woods near Ringwood, where a tractor belonging to Robert Palback of Lake Geneva had caught afire while construction work was being carried out. On Friday morning about 7:45, .they answered a call to the Diedrich farm at the extreme north end of Woodlawn Park to extinguish a chimney fire. carried out. On Monday afternoon at 1:30, there was a grass fire at Lakewood subdivision, Mc- Cullom Lake, which required the services of Company I. A grass fire in back of the Kleinhans Lumber company, east of the city between Rt. 120 and East River Road, required the attention of firemen about 6:45 Tuesday evening. On Wednesday morning. Company I members were called for the same type of fire to Lakeland Park. STRESS IMPORTANT ROLE OF HOSPITAL IN CITY GROWTH James M. Lennon, president, stated that the board of directors is confidant and proud of the fact that McHenry Hospital will play an increasingly important part in the growth of the city of McHenry. As the population in the area becomes greater, it will be necessary for the hospital to grow also. Mr. Lennon continued: "The number of patients admitted in 1960 was 2,175 as compared to 1,225 in 1958; and emergency cases in 1960 totalled 2,460 as> compared to 1,268 in 1958. Occupancy in 1960 was 92 per cent, whereas the norm for hospitals is usually 80 per cent. "As an economic asset, a hospital is part of the life blood of a community. Modern hospital facilities help attract new industries and |dso offer an excellent place for steady employment." "McHenry hospital is also important to the rural population. Because farming has become highly mechanized, the accident rate among farmers is mounting. Injury from this type of machine accident is usually serious, and hospital care in these cases must be available to avoid tragic results." "These are the reasons why we feel that McHenry hospital plays a vital role in the growth of our community," concluded Mr. Lennon.

University of Illinois specialists will be present. The world has about 500 volcanoes in various stages of activity.

Two full three-year terms now held by Ira J. Bunting of Wilson road, Round Lake, and Chester J. Meyers of Pistaqua Heights, McHenry, will be terminated. An unexpired term of one year will also be placed on the ballot. This is the term of Carl Goetz, who moved from the district and so was required to resign. The remaining members of the board appointed Victor Salava of Duck Lake Woods, Ingleside, to the office last October. All three incumbents have indicated they will be candidates for their offices. Mr. Vokac asks any who is interested to contact him or the school office. Q. How can I clean suede jackets and other articles of this material? A. Your best be# is a rel i a b l e L e a t h e r c l e a n e r -- not a dry-cleaner. For a "homemade" brightening up of suede, a wire brush helps a lot, and it'll help still more If you first go over the suede with a cloth dipped in vinegar. Another good brush-up is to rub a piece of stale rye bread over the suede. Holding spotted areas over the steaming spout of a teakettle is sometimes effective, provided you don't get the suede too wet. Q. How can I make a "glamorous-looking" ice ball to enhance a bowl of punch? A. Fill a round balloon with water, tying the end, and then freezing. After the water inside is frozen solid, break off the balloon, and then "you'll have a ball!" Q. What is a good way to take care Of and 'preserve rubber overshoes? A. A periodic rubbing over of the rubber with a little glycerin will clean up the rubber effectively, and also prevent its drying out. Q. I love the flavor of onion in my salads, but can't seem to digest raw onions. Any suggestions? A. Here's one way you can enjoy the flavor, without discomfort. Cut the onion into very thin slices, place in layers between the other salad ingredients, and let stand in the refrigerator, tightly covered, for at least six hours, or overnight. Then remove the onions, and mix your salad as usual. Q. How can I make a good nickel and steel polish? A. Mix one tablespoonful of turpentine, one tablespoonful of sweet oil, and enough emery powder to the consistency of cream. Apply with a soft rag, then wipe off, and polish with a dry flannel. Q. How can I remove scratches and marks from dark oak furniture? A. Try rubbing some boiled linseed oil over these marks until they disappear. Q. How can I make a sandpapering job much easier? A. Try taping your sandpaper to the smooth side of a square of upholsterer's foam rubber. When grasping the block, insert your fingers into the exposed holes, and you will have a good grip and better control of your paper. Henry DeYoung Dies In Crash (Continued from Page 1) Africa's 230 million people are divided by language barrierssome 700 of them, FARM CENSUS In its annual farm report the state Division of Agricultural Statistics of the Department of Agriculture said that during 1960 there were 160,- 000 Illinois farms. This is a 3 per cent decrease from 1959. The size of Illinois farms has grown from about 167 acres in 1935 to the present 190. Consolidation of farms has been the principal reason, while urban development and new highways have taken some land out of agricultural use.

Fatal Crash Three Chicagoans lost their lives when their car burst into flames following a collision of their auto and another vehicle on the Illinois tollway, four miles south of Marengo, shortly before midnight Sunday. The dead were Ronald Weise, 26, his wife, Erika, 20, and tlje former's aunt, Mat Weise, 54, all of Chicago. The three had left the Beloit home of Mrs. Weise's mother about 10:30 Sunday evening, about an hour before the fatal crash. Driver of the truck was Gordon Maukstad, 26, of Beloit, who was taken to Highland hospital in Belvidere suffering from shock, lacerations and a concussion. The Maukstad truck struck the Weise vehicle in the rear, resulting in the latter car bursting into flames and trapping the three persons inside. The bodies were burned beyond recognition. Second 1961 Fatality The second traffic fatality of the year in McHenry county claimed the life of a three* year-old girl from Geneva. She was Leslie Karen Thomas of Geneva. The accident occurred on Rt. 120, east Woodstock, on Feb. 7 when the child grabbed the wheel of the car in an attempt to gain her balance and the car swerved off the road, went down an embankment and into a tree. Mrs. Thomas and another child, Cynthia Lee, 18-monthold, were unhurt. Other Accidents Victorio Poco, 17, of Rt. 1, McHenry, was treated by a McHenry physician late Tuesday evening for minor injuries sustained in an accident at 11:30 o'clock at Williams Park, south of Rt. 176. About $800 damage was reported to the vehicle. The car skidded off the road as Poco drove south on Main street, according to state police who investigated. Wayne Meyer of Waukegan road, McHenry, escaped injury when his car went out of control on a curve as he drove south on Rt. 31, north of Dundee, last Sunday night. The auto crossed the road and crashed into a fence. Meyer was charged with not having an Illinois operator's license by state troopers. Ralph J. Dannehy of Cary was treated for shock at McHenry hospital after he was involved in an accident on Roberts road, south of Island Lake, last weekend. The car is reported to have hit a pole and then overturned. Only minor damage was reported to one car as the result of a collision late Wednesday afternoon of last week at Broad and Park street. Charles E. Tonyan was driving south on Park street when he was struck by another auto driven by Judith H. Freund, who was making a left turn from Broad. The fender of the Tonyan car was damaged. On Thursday, about 5:25 in the afternoon, two cars were involved in a collision at the Elm street and Riverside Drive intersection. Fritz Wagner, Jr., was pulling ahead from the stop light into the outside lane, and in so doing he struck a car driven by John M. Neal, damaging the left side and door. At the time of the accident, Neal had the green light and was passing Wagner in the outside lane. A Waukegan couple, Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Tempers, were trealod by a McHenry physician for injuries sustained in an accident on Rt. 12, near Volo, on Friday.

John street, McHenry, succumbed to a congenital heart condition on Thursday afternoon, Feb. 9. She passed away in the hospital connected with the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, but as a result of her death, two children will be able to visualize the beauties of Linnea's world. Her eyes were donated for transplants immediately following her death. The youngster, who was born Aug. 1, 1957, in Memorial Hospital for McHenry County, was about four months old when it was discovered that she had been born with a defective heart. The mother, father and four children were vacationing in Florida when she became ill, and the baby was taken to the University of Miami hospital for treatment. As soon as she was sufficiently recovered, mother and infant flew back to Children's Memorial hospital, Chicago for the first of many exhaustive and discouraging examinations. For three years, every known medical advancement in this field had been secured. The last hope for the youngster was to be tried in Minnesota and she became a patient there on Jan. 25. In spite of the pain she suffered during, and after a preparatory operation, she was cheerful and became the pet of doctors and nurses alike. Services for Linnea were held on Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m. from the Peter M. Justen & Son funeral home, with the Rev. Burton Schroeder of Wonder Lake officiating. She was laid to rest in Woodland cemetery, McHenry. In addition to her parents, Shirley and Art, the youngster is survived by three sisters, Kaaren, 19. Taina, 2V2, and six-month-old Lisa Jane; two brothers, Arthur (Butch) 15, Allan, almost 13; the maternal grandparents. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Nielsen, of Atlanta, Georgia; the paternal grandfather, Mr. Theodor Olsen of McCullom Lake: and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins. McHENRY COUNTY TO HOST DAIRY PRINCESS CONTEST Since McHenry county boasts two out of the last three state dairy princesses in Illinois, it seems only natural that the 1961 state contest should be held here. It was announced this past week that the American Dairy association executive committee has accepted the invitation of the McHenry County Dairy Promotion council to act as host. The exact location has not been set, but Woodstock is indicated as the probable site and the date will be sometime in August. Elwood Howell, ^ho resides south of McHenr^, is chairman of the state contest. The Dairy Council was formed in 1954, and the next year the first state princess was named in the person of Marilyn Lindvall. Since that time, McHenry county has had two winners. The first was in 1958, when Miss Mary Ann Granger of McHenry became ccpnty, and later state princess. The next year Miss Dorothy Olbrich of Harvard won both titles.
