Miller, the Scout executive. The project is both a contribution to the field of conservation , as well as a training project, according to Miller, who said leaders of the council are concerned about the shortages of hardwoodtrees and want to be a part in helping alleviate the situation. At the same time, it offers an opportunity for Scouts to become familiar with the needs for replenishing our forests and methods by which this is done.

BEIM* FRAN KLIIM Dally 9.-6 Y F r i . 9 - 9 F Edgebrook In Action Mrs. Rortvet's fifth grade class is adding realism totheir Social Studies class. They are studying early settlement and travel in the United States. Several students have built models of the type rafts that were used to travel down the Ohio river. They are very complete and include cattle, fences, as well' as shelters that were used on the rafts. When the settlers reached their destinations they used the lumber from the raft for their first shelter. Other students in her class have built excellent replicas of Boonsborough. The settlers of this time lived outside the fort but would move inside when the Indians were approaching. One boy used three boxes, and another one used five boxes of toothpicks in building his fort. Other students in the class used popsicle sticks or cardboard for their models. Each of these shows originality and ail are very well done. Mrs. Creamer's fourth grade class has made several working models of volcanoes. These models errupt when vinegar is added to baking soda. This project helps the students to make better use of their science and history as they study the background and history of volcanoes. Her class is also making land topographies which show the various layers of land making up different areas of land. Different colors represent various levels. One color shows mountain areas. Another represents plains, another color shows plateaus, and another the ocean areas. They have drawn diagrams and made a model of the various layers of soil and rock making up the depths of the earth. Learning by doing certainly can be seen in these projects. New Name Russia has renamed a city of 100,000 in the northeastern Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic. It is now Tselinograd, or Virgin Land City. It was previously Akmolinsk, which means White Tomb. RESTORATION OF RICHMOND MILL IS DISCUSSED At the last regular board meeting of the McHenry County Historical society, Mrs. Claude Pagles of Harvard was named to fill out the unexpired term of Mrs. June Kosta, who resigned because of illness. The director from Richmond, Richard G. Richardson, and Charles H. Elgredge, Jr., Richmond, reported they had looked into the matter of possible restoration o f the old mill in the area. They had found that only some of the original foundation of the earliest mill was in existence arid not too good condition, and that it would be impossible to recreate an operating mill as the original water source has been done away with, having in some cases been filled in and drained. The society had hoped tohave an operating old tim< mill somewhere in the county, as has been done in other historical - minded counties. Income tax time is nearing and a reminder that any donations either in money or gifts are deductible as the society is incorporated, not for porfit, and considered an educational institution. The value of the gift will have to be made by an appraiser or an offer of a dealer to determine the value. The society makes no such appraisals. At every meeting the board discusses the vital need for a fireproof building and has looked into many suggestions. It is still the thinking of the board that a building to house all the agricultural implements, tools and equipment should be on or near the fair ground. Just last week a grain combine bought in 1905 was donated. Such items should oe stored indoors to prevent further weathering and thus the imperative need for a building. The option the society has with Windridge, near Cary, of three acres, will soon expire and unless some historicalminded "angel" comes forward and offers land near the fair grounds, it looks as if the museum will be placed there.

Like flu and pneumonia, it is an infectious respiratory disease. Family members can catch it from one another. Christmas Seals fight TB and other respiratory diseases.
