LAW REQUIRES EXAMINATION FOR KINDERGARTNERS Because of a new law concerning the entrance into kindergarten, Carl Buckner, assis^ ant superintendent of schools for McHenry, and Mrs. Pauline F. Pries, R. N., school nurse, are requesting that all parents whose children are entering kindergarten this fall please have physical examinations performed before the children are permitted entrance. The physical examination form necessary for the examination will be mailed directly to the parents whose children have been registered for the kindergarten class, and also there will be a supply distributed to all local physicians in McHenry. ' The fullest cooperation of parents is urged so as not to have any delay cr disappointments in your children being admitted. This notice is being given early, fend any examinations conducted after June 1, 1958, will be accepted for fall entrance. The examination is made necessary because of the following passage from the school code of Illinois: "As soon as practicable, physical examinations, as prescribed by the superintendent of public instruction with the advice and aid of the Department of Public Health, shall be required of all pupils in the public elementary and secondary schools, except as hereinafter provided, immediately to or upon their entrance into kindergarten or the first grade, and not less than every fourth year thereafter. Additional health examinations of pupils niay be required when deemed necessary by the School authorities."

Prices of the lower, grades will dec l i n e m o r e t h a n u s u a l , a n d prices of the higher grades, which usually rise from spring to fall, seem likely, to sag. This forecast is- based on a study of past price trends, .cattle numbers on -farms, slaughter rates, cattle on feed, marketing intentions, consumer demand and Qjhe{ items. Recent prices \f or fed cattle 'i&ve, been the highest since way ; back in 1952. ' Choice s t e e l ' s h a v e , b e e n b r i n g i n g 'irouhd $30* a hundred pounds, which is $7 higher than a year !igo^ It is $6. higher than the average-f6r all of last year and also $6 higher than the average of the past five years. Cottlet Held Back The high prices this year are the result of a restricted slaughter of cattle and relatively small supplies of other merits. Farmers and randiers have been,, buying ahd holding cattle ^o! consuine the big feed crops, they produced last year and to rebuild range herds depleted during the drouth years. At the beginning of this yvAY-f farmers and ranchers had an estimated 60 million head of beef cattle, the same as one year before. Of these cattle, 9'a million wore steers --4 percent more than last year. By contrast, slaughter of cattle so far this year hgs been running 12 to 15 percent behind a year ago. Number in Feed Lots Up 12% On April 1 farmers in 15 cattle-feeding states had over 5 million cattle on feed -- 12 percent more than the year before and a new record high for the date. The previous record was set in 1955; the number on feed this year is about 7 percent higher than if 1955.' In 1955 the average prico of choice steers at Chicago slid from $27 in January to $20 in December. There will be less competition from pork this year than in 1955, but more people may be eating beans on account of unemployment. Most of the cattle on feed are headed for market after July 1. Of the cattle in feedlots on April 1, farmers expected to market 13 percent in April, 14 percent in Mav. 15 percent in June, and 58 percent in July and later. Compared with last year, intended marketings of cattle for April were 6 percent less; for May, 1 percent more; for June, 3 percent more; and for July and later, 22 percent more. Expected later marketings of Page Eleven COOKS CORNER \ by Marie Schaettgen ' / Chili with Meat Are you bringing guests home with you for the weekend?

Our Schools (by Classroom Teachers) School Library There is much work involved with running a library. To help each other with their problems and to do their job more effectively, the librarians have a convention where they may exchange ideas. Recently,- Mrs. McGee attended the Illinois Association of School Librarians' convention. Mrs. McGee is the librarian at the junior high school. She is in charge of the materials and the use of them. The library in the new Junior high is a great improvement over the small space used as a library in the old building. It is one of the outstanding improvements in the new building. As years go by, the wealth of books should increase to make it even better. Trip To The Zoo 1 Recently two of the first grace's took a trip to the Lincoln Park zoo. Two school busses were hired for the day. one for Mrs. "Larson's room and the other for Mrs. Gibbs' room.
