Thursday, April 29. 1%5 THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER - < S r t ' • • • • . • Section TWd -- Pag* Sdittik State Makes Report Following Visit To McHenry School Proclaim Loyalty Day The following report was made by Morris Nooner, Jr., assistant regional director of the state of Illinois, following his visit to McHenry high school this year. It is printed, in part: "On Feb. 17 I had the pleasure of visiting McHenry Community High School District 156 in company with Edward W. Hall, assistant county superintendent of schools. "The superintendent, his assistants and the school board are making continuous efforts to improve the total educational program, the methods and techniques of instruction. The working relationships among the administrative personnel, teachers and pupils are good. The supervisory program is being carried out under the direction of the administrative asssistants and the high school principal. "The utilization of a Citizens' Advisory Council is commendable in that it permits an . opportunity to explain the educational needs and accomplishments of this school district to the patrons. Steps should be taken to re-study the philosophy of education and policies for the system. A strong statement of philosophy understood by all would serve as a stimulus and guide for educational development. Written Policies "Written policies clarify responsibilities and generally improve working relationships among the staff, the board and the community. "The educational program for this district is rather broad and appears to be meeting the needs of a majority of the students of this district. A fine guidance program is in operation in this school. "The central library in the high school provides the students with the opportunity to acquire materials and resource information in many areas of their interests. The equipment and instructional materials in the area of audio-visual is adequate. "The utilization of a curric-. ulum coordinator is most commendable in that this service provides a continuing educational program for each of the students as well as encourages the implentation of other courses into, the curriculum which will provide additional educational opportunities. We found the facilities were crowded in many areas of this school. Limited Facilities "The present physical education program is inadequate due to the limited facilities. The music program of vocal and instrumental is primarily performance centered. To give strength and emphasis to this program, I would suggest that consideration be given to instruction in the area of music appreciation and theory. In the area of special services, we found that a school lunch program was being offered. The limited size of the cafeteria hampers the efficient operation of this service. "I was pleased to learn of the many activities which this school provides for the pupils. Co-curricular activities lend a great deul to trie enrichment of the program, particularly in the field of social and personal development. "In visiting the basic program of this school, I found many admirable practices and sound instruction. The instructional equipment and supplies seem to be very adequate. Laboratory equipment in the area of science is adequate to offer a program that is not solely text centered, but provides an opportunity for each student to experience laboratory activities. Certainly, most of the work which I observed was good. For this total program, I have the following general suggestions for consideration and study: "1--The facilities provided for the cafeteria program certainly limit the services that might be provided; 2 -- attention to the hardwood floor in the industrial arts room to assure safety of all students using this facility; 3--With the addition of new courses to the curriculum, consideration be given to the area of music appreciation. Need For Buildings "In as much as the school facilities determine to a great extent the type and quality of educational program that might be provided, I was pleased to note that serious study and consideration is being given to the type of building program that would house a most comprehensive educational program. There is a definite need for additional building facilities in this district. Careful planning must be exercised in expanding the building facilities to meet the present and future needs. "We found the custodial services to be quite satisfactory with the building being well kept and well maintained. We trust that the administration, the board and the community will continue to progress in planning and develoximent of the facilities so that the best possible educational opportunities for the boys and girls in this community migjit be provided. McHENRY GIRL ACCEPTED BY LAY VOLUNTEERS Miss Patricia Walsh, 1506 N. Green Street, McHenry, has been accepted by the Extension Lay Volunteers for a year of service as a teacher, following her graduation from.Clark College, Dubuque, Iowa, late in tMay.

At Clarke, where she is majoring in sociology, she is a member of the Student Education association and of the Social Science club.

Miss Walsh is the first girl in the Clarke class of 1965 to receive an Extension Lay Volunteer appointment. She and other volunteers from her class and underclassmen who volunteer for the summer will receive their mission crosses from His Excellency, the Most Reverend James J. Byrne, D.

PROCLAMATION -- RABIES PREVALENT The Illinois Department of Agriculture states that 33 cases of rabies were reported in March. Skunks were the main carriers of rabies with 24 cases. Dogs, cats, fox, raccoon, squirrels and a hamster carried the remaining rabies. Since McHenry county is well populated with skunks it is wise to avoid any animals that you see during the day. Squirrels or skunks that are not afraid of humans have a high possibility of having rabies. WHEREAS, the Congress and the President of the United States have officially designated May the first of each year as National Loyalty Day, specifically "for affirmation of loyalty to the United States of America and special recognition of our heritage of our American freedoms," and WHEREAS, such federal legislation urges the people of the United States to observe Loyalty Day with appropriate demonstrations and ceremonies in schools, churches and in oth^r suitable public places throughout our land, and WHEREAS, In the present year it has become increasingly evident that subversive and disruptive elements continue their efforts to distort the fundamental significance of truly loyal Americanism and threaten to destroy our cherished freedoms and national unity, and WHEREAS, Such threats to Security of ouf nation must be met with effective counter measures and a solid front determination by all loyal citizens to preserve the principles for which thousands of brave Americans have died in battle, Now THEREFORE, I, Donald P. Doherty, Mayor of the City of McHenry, Illinois, do hereby join with the Congress and the President of the United States in urging that every man, woman and child, every church, school organization and business establishment within my official jurisdiction do affirm stalwart support to our form of government- - and that such loyalty be made manifest through wide display of the United States flag and through personal participation in public demonstrations and ceremonies 1 in an old place . . .

Maggie Brothers Continue Studies Put a little petroleum jelly on your little "girl's forehead when WASHING HER HAIR, to keep the suds out of her eyes. Let's face it, girls -- you can't avoid CLEANING HOUSE! But to keep your cheery, spring-y mood thru it all, use these "Smart-Cuts": Plan only vhat you know you can do at one time, and do it in order (empty ashtrays and dust before doing floor) to save double work. Carry a basket of your cleaning supplies from room to room--to save steps (if you have 2 floors, keep a set on each floor). Sit whenever possible -- dusting books, sorting magazines. Clear off all tables, dressef top's,, etc. in the room so you can do a clean-sweep, oneearound dusting job. And wear an apron with big pockets to hold odds and ends; then as you walk thru the house ,you can, drop them off where they belong. Your vacuum cleaner attachments are great for jobs like dusting tops of doors, moldings, draperies -- for quick cleanups of blinds, lampshades, furniture. And yhen you've finished a big job, take a break-- you've earned it! When USED SOAP BARS get down to slivers, place them in your dirty clothes hamper-- prevents that musty smell. Exhausted your list of MEATLESS IDEAS? Fry some minced chives in butter, add a spoonful of stewed tomatoes and mix with scrambled eggs.
