Perry Fortress, No. II, Daughters of the G.A.R. met at the home of Mrs. John Fay Sept. 8. Mrs. Ruby M. Druary, junior vice-commander of the National Daughters of Waukegan was present to assist in the work and instruct the officers in their work. The officers of the fortress are Emma Fay, commander; Florence Sayler, vice- commander; Julia Rhalin, junior vice-commander; Zena Bacon, chaplain; Kathryn Howard Howe, adjutant; Lottie Erickson, quartermaster; Ella Welch, sentinel; Barbara Krause, Lena Bohr, Calla Perkins, and Katherine C. Schaefer, color bearers. Actual work on the com­ pletion of Route 20 through McHenry is making fine showing. Much blasting and shoveling has been going on the past few days. The steam shovel is working on a stretch of the road between the north side of the pond and up the hill to the Stoffel residence at the corner of Elm street and Ringwood road. The Stoffel home will be razed in a short time to make way for the road which passes over the site the house is now standing on. Reports from Supt. C.H Duker on the enrollment in both the high school and the public grammar school are as follows: The total enrollment for the high school is 145. Of these, forty-three are freshmen and the senior class totals a membership of thirty-five. Miss Christine Wagner of the Lily Lake school was successful in carrying off the county honors in a spelling contest held iji Woodstock last Friday This entitles her to enter a state spelling contest in Springfield later in the year, all expenses of the trip to be paid by the county. FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Sep­ tember 10, 1936) Teachers who will teach in rural schools include S.M. Prudens at Johnsburg District 12; Wayne Foss of Ringwood at Montelona, District 30; Alice Clark will again be at Ostend; Mrs. Eveline Larkin at the Prairie school; Mable Knox at Terra Cotta and Elsie Vycital at Fox River Grove. A total of 254 applicants from McHenry county citizens for old age pension have been approved by the state ac­ cording to Mrs. Lulu Barter, head of the Old Age Pension board in the county. This number was paid $3,505 for the month of August or an average of approximately $14 per person. The summer vacation drew to a close over the weekend with fair skies and the desire for one last outing attracting many tourists to McHenry and the lake region for Labor day and the weekend. Individual ballots have been mailed to voters of McHenry and nearby communities in a new Literary Digest poll of over 10,000,000 persons to ascertain who will be the next president of the United States. The votes should be distributed by the post "office locally within a few days, according to advice received today from the magazine's publishers. A total of 68,372 cattle were tested in McHenry county during the past year according to the annual report submitted to the County board Tuesday by the office of the county veterinarian. This total is somewhat smaller than last year when 75,000 cattle were tested. Several local members of the National Union for Social Justice went to Chicago Sunday Enrollment Limited For Tax Workshops A limited number of persons can still be accepted for enrollment at the TeleNet worshops for beginning income tax preparers to be conducted by the University of Illinois Cooperative Extension service, says George Young, McHenry county Extension adviser. The workshops are designed for persons with little or no experience in preparing in­ come tax returns for others and who wish to become more competent. An enrollment fee covers the cost of teaching where they heard Father Charles E Coughlin re-open his war against President Roosevelt before an audience of a reported 100,000, the largest ever gathered to hear his voice. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Sep­ tember 13, 1951) With the approval Tuesday of the annual tax levy for the ensuing year, it was disclosed that following the final payment on the special bond issue for building bridges in McHenry county this year, the county is now free of bonded indebtedness. The levy presented to the board by the Finance committee asks the sum of $354,475 be levied on all taxable property in the county. This is $9,775 more than levied last year but it was thought that the county tax rate would not be increased. Herb, 18-year-old son of Mr and Mrs. Herb Engdahl, suf­ fered a serious eye injury in an accident which occurred last Thursday at the Terra Cotta factory, where he has been employed this past summer. Herb, who was scheduled to come home in mid-week from Sherman hospital, Elgin, had expected to leave for college next week, but his entrance may be postponed because of the accident. The arrest last week of 75- year-old Miss Daisy Hull for operating an unlicensed private school on Lake Catherine road, a mile west of Antioch, brought to local residents memories of a few years ago when Miss Hull operated a similar institution on the former Saul estate at Pistakee Bay, which the Italian Welfare council has since taken over. The elderly woman was arrested by Lake county authorities for operating the school under filthy conditions and without providing adequate food for the fifteen "pupils ". The school was known as the Kendall Hall School for boys, a fourteen-room two story frame residence where four boys and eleven girls, ranging in ages from 3 to 13, were found dirty and hungry. TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Sep­ tember 15, 1966) McHenry county will have a new county nursing home as the result of a close, but favorable vote at a special meeting of the board of supervisors last week. By a vote of 14 to 13 approval was given for the expenditure of $424,450 deemed necessary to erect a new addition to Valley Hi nursing home to meeting federal government and state standards for the year 1970. The new building will contain forty- eight beds. Progress has been notable in recent weeks on construction of the McHenry Market Place, a new shopping center located at 4400 W Route 120, McHenry. Leasing area covers 66,000 square feet. Burglars broke into the Chapel Hill Country club at 2500 N. Chapel Hill road sometime in the early houre of Monday morning and escaped with the week's receipts, said by one of the owners to be about $1,500. The intruders pried open a file box after entering through a window in the clubhouse. Within the next few weeks the Plaindealer will be making an important change in printing procedure which makes new' deadlines necessary. Because this is a major change planned over a period of several months, a short time may be required to realize the fine improvement for which we are striving In return for their cooperation, we promise our readers a home town paper which will even better serve their needs and interest. materials and student work­ books. University of Illinois specialists will teach the workshops via the Cooperative Extension Service TeleNet system, says Young. This is a telephone network with two- way communication that enables students at each of the stations to hear and talk with the workshop instructors. The workshop for interested McHenry county residents will be held Oct. 25 , 27, and 29 at 11909 McConnell road, Wood­ stock, says Young. Additional information and enrollment forms may be obtained at the McHenry County Extension office, 11909 McConnell road, P.O. Box 431, Woodstock, or call Young at 338-3737.
