Thursday April 6. 1961 THE MeHENRT PLAIHDEALEH EXPANSION OF COUNTY MEMORIAL HOSPITAL PLANNED Future expansion for Memorial flospital for McIIenry ^County was behind the move ^pf .the hospital board's approval last week of the purchase of, a lot to the south of the building. A committee which includes Clem Jones of Ciystal Lake, Jack Byers of Woodstock and Thomas Bolger of McHenry recently met with the architect to plan further" expansion. The board of the hospital feels that it is necessary to plan now for the future ^velopment of hospital facilities because of the continued high occupancy of the present building, and the projected growth of the community which the hospital serves. At the board meeting, the firm of Ganster and Hennighausen of Waukegan was chosen as the architectural firm and an agreement with the firm was approved. "Salaries of nurses were reviewed and starting salaries for general duty nurses at Memorial hospital will be increased oh July 1, 1S61. This action was also approved by the board of directors. The finance committee of the board reported that the appraisal of properties has been brought up to date. g.The.-public relations commi we reported on the coming edition of the news bulletin for association members and report^ also that plans are in progress for the next annual meeffrig of the hospital association.

By Henry Heise ^ of Bulger's Drug Store EASTER P.S. Sis had a new hat. But now the ribbon's got a wrinkle in it. And there's a big smudge of back-yard dirt on Junior's new fedora. The scrubbed-up, brightened-up look that makes Easter such a treat is just a memory. v'No it isn't,*' you say. "I caught it on film with my camera." Great! But where's that film now? Still in the camera on the shelf? If it is, you're missing the best part of the fun. Sure, taking the pictures is fun in itself. Rut what really counts is seeing them. Handsome slides or prints that capture tffi way Easter really looked. Finishing those slides and prints is one of the most important parts of our business. We do it promptly, professionally. We can take one of the shots you made, for instance, and turn it into an enlargement that'd look swell in a frame on your mantle. So shoot the rest of that r^. Ajltl bring it in. While you're here, pick up another couple of rolls of Kodak film. Holidays are special, all right, but every other day of the year is full of picture-perfect moments in the. life of your family, too. Junior in a new Easter suit is sure worth seeing again and again. But so is Junior with jam on his face. EXPLAIN FEED GRAIN PROGRAM TO AREA FARMERS Walter E. Austin, office manager of the McHenry county ASC office, announced Tuesday that the 1961 feed grain program is a voluntary program of one year duration and applies only to the 1961 crops of corn and grain sorghum. The program requirements for a farmer to cooperate are to reduce his corn acreage a minimum of 20 per cent- of his farm base, actual 1959-1960 history average adjusted for abnormal conditions, or to h maximum of the following three examples: 1, If the base is 20 acres or less - - entire base. 2, If the base is 100 acres or less -- 20 acres plus. 20 per cent; 3, If the base is over 100 acres -- 40 per cent. Mr. Austin further stated that the diverted acreage must be land that has been tilled in the last three years and must be put in one of the following conservation Uses: Permanent type or rotation cover of grasses and legumes; temporary cover of grasses, legumes or Small grains;, water storage; wildlife feed or habit planting; trees or shrubs. This diverted acreage must be in addition to the acreage of conserving crops carried for the last two years. If a cooperator has an interest in more than one farm, to be eligible on a signed up farm he must fully cooperate on such farm and he must plant within the corn history acreage for 1959-60 on thp other farm. For complying, the farmer will receive price support on corn at $1.21 per bushel for the quantity of his normal yield times the 1961 acreage and price support on the other feed grain crops of barley, oats, rye and grain sorghum. Payment rates per acre will be determined for the first 20 per cent reduction at 50 per cent times farm normal yield times $1.21 and for acreage between 20 and 40 per cent at 60 per cent times farm normal yield times $1.21. Payments will be made in the form of negotiable certificates for which producers may receive grain or cash equivalant of grain. If the producer desires cash, the county office will issue a sight draft for the amount arid CCC will act as agent for the producer and market the grain. An advance payment of one half of the estimated total payment will be made as soon as the producer files his intentions to participate in the 1961 program. £acb jargdaGf&*vtail fled soon of his payment rate and the time and place for sign up in his township. UNDER 21 A column for teen-agers By Dan Halligan DEAR DAN: It isn't very often that I haven't been able to go to my parents and get advice and guidance but this time I know I can't and I'm asking you for "help. I'll be 21 in July, a man in the eyes of the law. My girl and I would like to get married sometime this summer but the way things look, we just don't know. Our problem is religion. She's a Catholic and I'm a Baptist and as much as we love each other, we won't give up our religion for the other. We're surfc of that decision so the question we're inquiring about is mixed-marriages or marriages between people of different religions1: How good would our chances be for our marriage to succeed with each of us going to different churches? How about children? I wouldn't want the children raised as Catholics and my wife wouldn't want them raised as Baptists. Do you have any figures to show just how successful such marriages are and what is the outcome where children are ebneerned? -- Mixed Up. &EAR MIXED UP: Mixed marriages are in great pari like other marriages -- some are successful and Homo J know of many couples of different religions who apparently have happy marriages and in several cases, either the husband or the wife has made enough of a concession so that the children are being raised in one religion without any bitterness or disappointment on the parents' parts. However, I don't advocate mixed marriages and never will. Your girl and you can learn a lot more by scheduling a meeting with her priest and your minister and talking the problem out. That*s about all I can tell you. DEAR DAN: There's a boy who goes to our canteen every Friday night and I'm just dying to meet him but I don't know how. He dances once in a while but has never asked me and I don't have the courage to ask him whenever we have a ladies' choice. I have caught him staring at me several times and wonder if this means he might like to get to know me? Please answer soon. -- Miss Shyness. DEAR MISS SHYNESS: If you haven't asked this boy to dance during a ladies' choice because of shyness, it's just possible the boy has the same problem. A boy can appear to be a regular ladles' man and dance With thirty different girls during an evening but if he has enough shyness in his make-up, he usually won't be very aggressive where the girl he likes is concerned. It looks to me as if you're wasting a lot of valuable time. Get up your courage and the next time you have a ladies' choice, ask him. If you don't, lie just may get discouraged and stop coming to the canteen. Wouldn't that be terrible? DEAR DAN: I want to get a lawn mowing business started this Summer and would like to know if I should charge extra when I use my mower or would it be better to keep the price the same for everybody? I'm nearly 14 -- Ambitious. ^I DEAR AMBITIOUS: Use your own lawn mower for all your work and charge the same rate, whether it be for the size of lawn or by the hour. DEAR DAN: When a boy wants to kiss a girl goodnight, does he just kiss her or should he ask permission? I've taken this girl out four times and still haven't kissed her goodnight. I think she wants to have me kiss her but I'm not sure. What should I do? -- Billy. DEAR BILLY: Sometimes a boy can ask a girl for ^goodnight kiss without even speaking a word. In your case, I think if you ask the girl, you'd be better off. Some girls won't kiss a boy good night even after a dozen dates .but most will after several dates -- and you qualify. TAX FACTS . Reorganization of school districts in Illinois came in for attention by the Taxpayers' Federation of Illinois last week. "The fact that the number ot school districts in Illinois has been reduced from 11,955 in 1954 to 1,619 in 1960 shows a big step in the right direction," said Velma B. Crain, director of education research of the Federation. "However, mere reduction in the number of school districts is not enough." Mrs. Crain went on to point out that in the school year ending June 30, 1960, there were 188 elementary districts with fewer than fifty pupils enrolled and fifty-one with fewer than 100 pupils. Even some of the tweleve grade districts have comparatively small enrollments, while others have sufficiently large enrollments to justify the diversified programs demanded in modern education. "The 'land-grabbing' that was brought about when various districts sought to include industrial plants and other valuable properties within their boundaries, and exclude less valuable areas has gerrymandered some 'listricls into untenable positions to the extent that it mii;ht be advisable to take another look at school district organization throughout the State," said Mrs. Crain. The Taxpayers^ Federation has never taken the position ""that reorganization of school districts into twelve grade units will necessarily result in lower tax rates. Such a reor-: ganization could i»sult in better educational ^|psrtunities and in more efficient use of the taxpayers' money. It could equalize the tax burden of school support by enlarging the taxing areas, and by larger class size groupings which could result in lower per capita costs. However, enrichment and diversification of curricula would probably offset suchsavings. "In any event," " concluded Mrs. Crain, "proper re-organization to effect the best educational opportunities possible for our children should be beneficial both to the taxpayers and to the children in our public schools." Coal and diamonds are each almost pure carbon, a pearl «ind oyster shell are each pure calcium, but what a difference!! Likewise, men may be similar in their physical properties, needs, and backgrounds. One may be a benefactor of the human race, and the other k worthless bum.'
