The deceased was born Mathilda Yonag on April 9, 1881, north of Johnsfearg, and always claimed the McHenry community as her home. Her chief , interest centered in her large family. * aach of whom was devoted to the kindly and cheerful mother who made her home a gathering place for generations of children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren. She was married to Mr. Glost^a fwenty eight years ago and for many «ars they farmed west of McHenry. fjoven years ago they moved to their •resent home on John street.

An evening of comedy was provided the audience at the production of "The Mummy and t&e Mumps" at the high school auditorium last Friday night. A cast of ten players, their director, Doyne Hoover, and a large staff presented the very enjoyable 'play to a capacity crowd after only five weeks of rehearsals, and are to be commended on their fine performance. The setting of the play was a girls' school in a small town near Boston during summer vacation. The mystery of stolen jewels was topped only by the added mystery of the real identity of a new professor, Sir Heetor Fish, who arrived, with mumps, in a case supposedly containing aa Egyptian maauny. The eoftipllaitpd 0fcations resulting the above mentioned confusion provided laughs through a lengthy production which demaadsd both work aad talent on the part of east and director. TWO LOCAL CHURCHES WILL SPONSOR ANNUAL PRE-HOLIDAY BAZAARS • Are you looking for something different and lovely in the way of Christmas gifts f And would you like to secure such a gift without the effort involved in confronting crowds of holiday shoppersf If so, thea plan cn attending the pre-holiday bazaars which two local chuhehes, the Lutheran and Methodist; are planning for the near future. On Friday, Nov. 19, the Ladies Aid of the Zion Evangelical Lutheran chureh will .sponsor its annual fall bazaar aad festival at the ehareh hall. The sale will begin at 10 a. m. and will continue until 8:30 in the evening, with refreshments served throughout the day. There will be many attractive items on display. Just three weeks later, on Thursday. Dec. 9, will be the annual bazaar Saturday, Nov. 27. The public will be asked to vote for or against the erection of a new building for the lower grades. The amount of the issue will be #295,000. The ballot will carry four questions. The two questions of special importance will be location of a site and the approval of the bond issue. In common with all grade schools the' local school finds itself with insufficient room to house the school at the present time, and, if forecasts can be depended upon, the school faces a tremendous shortage of rooms in the near future. Last year, it was found necessary to change from one to two first grade rooms. As^this group of students advances through the system the school finds it necessary to provide one extra classroom each year. If no other forces were at work, this fact would necessitate the addition of eight classrooms between 1947 and 1955. Many New Besidonts However, as suggested in last week's article, there are several other forces tat work. Two of these are a steadily increasing birth rate and a' steady influx of children who formerly attended the Chicago schools. Local school authorities checked the birthplaces of the children attending the first grade. They found that out of forty first grade children, thirty-two were born outside of the local school district. These figures iadieate aa eaormous growth in the local territory. Ia' last week's article, it was noted that the local district has had a M per cent increase in birth rats. If oae combines those sponsored by the Women's Society for to hoiase the Q VnioH tnr their able thought culinary art, the ladies of the four circles will serve a chicken dinner at 5 p. m. at a charge of $1.25 for adults and sixty-five cents for children of 12 years and under. There will be booths containing bakery goods and others filled with choice items of fancy work. The dinner and bazaar will take place at the Methodist church hall. two finm, he can see some of the possibilities faced by the local schools. Oae could even forecast such exaggerated figures as aa increase of 400 grade school children during the next six or eight years. The board is aot basiag its buildiag program on? any such figures. They are proposing to build sufficient classrooms so that, with what classrooms they have at preseat, they ean take ears of the fomeeable needs for the next five years. This need is tea classrooms. However, they are iastructiag the architect to so plan that, should the , increase ia population continue, the building can easily be expanded to take care of those needs. Janier High School Under the present plans, the old building on Waukegan street will be used for the junior high school and for a few of the upper middle-grade classes. The new building will be used Considerthought was given to the idea of building a new junior high shcool. The present building would then have been used for the lower grades. This idea was given up for several reasons probably the chief of which,was the fact ihat a junior high school would cost a great deal more to erect. By using the present building for the junior high school purposes and erecting a building to house the lower grades, the board can take care of the present building needs at the lowest possible cost. The board of education considered a large unmber of sites. After spending a great amount of time in examining each location, they decided to recommend a tract of ground at the south end of Green street. The tract is located on the west side of the street just south of Park Avenue. The MURDERER ELIGIBLE FOR PAROLE IN'51 Residents of the country heard with mingled feelings last week that asart* ward for participating in wartime malaria experiments at the Stateville prison in Joliet, Ralph Haupris, now 45 years old, has been eligible for parole in 1951 by an order of Governor Dwight H. Green. Haupris, who committed murder in McHenry county back in the twenties, was one of seven prison inmates at Joliet whose sentances were reduced. The prisoners were part of a group of convicts who took part in malaria control experiments by allowing themselves to be inoculated by the malarial germ to test preventatives and cures. It was on July 13, 1929, that Haupris murdered Henry Mengs, aged Woodstock resident, in what at that early date was regarded as one of the most premeditated and worst slayings in the history of the county. Mengs was killed at the old fair grounds when Haupris^ in testimony before the late Judge Edward IX 8hartleff, used a file he had sharpened into a knife, with which he slashed Mengs' throat. The body of Mengs was found under some shrubbery near one of the old fair ground buildings several days after he had been reported missinig. Records disclosed that Haupris murdered the aged Woodstock man to obtain several hundred dollars in cash for which he purchased an automobilo a short time later. On Sept. 7, 1929, Haupris appeared in court before the late Judge Shnrtleff and changed his plea from not guilty to guilty. He was soatoaeed to seventyfive years in the state poaiteniary. Although several attempts had been made of late to make him eligible for parole, all were ineffective aatil Governor Green's action last week. The seven men made eligible tor parole are credited by the army with playiag a major role ia the developmeat of a aew drug for the treatment of malaria. Wheather Haupris wiH get* his parole ia 1951 will depead, of eoorse, apoa the parole board. Both the murdrer aad his victim were Honor Awards Iw Outstanding Work Presented Nov. 13 McHenry community's 4-H Achievement Day, the second in a series to be held throughout the county, took place last Saturday evening at the McHenry high school, with the Solon Mills Cherry Valley and Busy Three clubs participating.

The upper grade students have been greatly handicapped during the past number of years in their fall and spring athletie programs.

They, therefore need a place where they can put on a real program of after school activities. The new site will make this possible. It is very important that the public be well informed on the needs and purposes of the program. Some questions which will occur to the readers ean be best answered by board members or teachers. For this reason, the public is urged to call upon either group during the next ten days to discuss the matter with them.
